me and my fiance have been together for a year and a half, we dont live together, he has a child and i have two. We dont get to see eachother too much he stays at my house maybe between 1 and 3 nights a week we have one day off together which we only get to spend about 5-6 hours together, on the nights he stays over he gets to my house about 6 or later and by that time im getting my kids ready for bed and all that, so we dont have that much time then. Weve Never had a day with just the two of us since weve been together which i really dont like, cause when we have our kids together were takin care of them, so basically im just wondering if anyone else has been through this, we only live like 25 mins apart, Im just getting tired of never seeing eachother and doing anything, do you think it can last

I have been with my man for 7 years and we usually only see each other on the weekends, as I work 1st sift and he works 2nd, I'm usually sleeping when he gets home and whenever we do have time together we have our kids. It bothered me a lot at first, but now I think it helps to keep things fresh, we're not in each other's faces all the time.

If the both of you are into one another, and would make sacrifices like the ones u are making now, then it may work. you should speak to him about it..but don't pressure him to commit large amounts of time (as you wouldn't want him to force you to commit a large amt. of time, because you have kids too). Ask him what he thinks about moving in together, it would be great for you both, and even for your kids to get to know each other better. When the kids love each other, it's kinda hard for parents to separate them :) Good luck and take care.

Maybe when things change, you two can get a couple of babysitters for the whole lot.
It doesn't matter if you're married or not, sweetie, you always need some one-on-one time.
And you CAN find a way.
Especially when there's onyl one househol to worry about.
But if you don't make that committment, and make it work, everyone will suffer.e
Same as you're suffering alone half the time, you know?
Six of one, half dozen of the other...

Your choice. It will last till you guys get married and live together, then you can see each other everytime you are home....it is very hard that way...besides having children of your own is hard enough...imagine adding on...is he going to take some of the responsibilites off of you or is he going to add 2 more people to you "to do list" ???
Good luck

Sounds like my grandparents..they both have separate houses and have been married for over 40 years...
And they still dont live together...weird eh?...I grew up thinking thats how it was supposed to be
Maybe yoou guys should consummate this marriage and get a house together...

You have to make time for each other. Sounds to me its gotten to "routine"..why can't you guys get a babysitter once in a while and plan a "date" night?
