My boyfriend has been stressed due to his job situation. He has been looking for a new job for the last months, he's in a full-time job but he is not happy there. Him and his boss do not get on so well and he did not get promotion he hoped for. He decided to look for new job. He spends his free time job searching, preparing for his interviews. He has been to few even near my city but he has not been successful yet. He told me last weekend he feels like he is loosing and he isn't feeling that great. He has pulled away due to this from me and has been distant with me. He still talks to me but he's very distant. He did explain to me that he needs to find himself a better job but I have not been handling his emotional distance very well and I've become worried and needy. He got upset with me once because I told him that he does not care about me anymore. He said he was sorry but he wants to be alone and he does not feel like talking. I want to see him but he says he is not sure when.

I have been in your boyfriends position before. It feels like whatever you do nothing will ever get better.
If you think he would be receptive perhaps you could give him a gift of a session with a Job Search Counselor to look at his resume and make suggestions. Perhaps family counseling would help him to learn to leave his job problems at work.

Cook him a romantic dinner and then give him a massage, try to help him forget it for a bit. If you live in Canada he can post his resume on monster.ca, it's a job site where employers and look for employees and where people looking for work can look for a new work place.
