My boyfriend works ALL the time and is losing time for me!!??

Question

I'm trying as best as possible not to sound selfish, because really i feel selfish thinking like this. My boyfriend just got a 2nd job. We're in high school and a 2nd job is a huge responsibility for him, but i think its just for the summer. He works his first job on saturdays only and the 2nd job he works 4 days a week. This EXHAUSTS him and i do feel bad sometimes. But i've been feeling very lonely because i have not been seeing him like i used to. The days he has off he will sometimes use for him to play his video games and whatnot. He works from 5 in the morning till 2 in the afternoon but he's too tired to see me after work. At night we usually talk on the phone but lately he's been so tired that he practically falls asleep on me. There is also an issue with a girl at work who constantly flirts with him and it frustrates me a lil more to know he spends more time with that chick then he does his own girlfriend. I'm happy for him that he's such a hard worker,

Answer 1

my boyfriend works everyday from 4-10 and only days he has off is tuesdays and wednesdays, im graduating this year and he graduated last year, but im usually understanding because his parents are down his throat about money and getting back into college. but he tries to see me when he can, some days he wants me to go to work with him and its chill, then some days we just hang out until he has to go to work. i think that you should just talk to him try to be understanding. and if hes tired alot, what i do is when my boyfriend is tired after work or before he goes, we take naps together, and its a collective decision i dont force anything on him (:

Answer 2

My husband is in the Navy and therefore I never see him. It does suck alot and when I tell him that I want to be prioritized before the navy he gets really upset. When he comes home from work all he wants to do is go to bed and it is so frustrating. The best advice that I can give is look for the light at the end of the tunnel (going back to school). If he has lunch breaks where he is allowed to have visitors then why not suprise him every once in awhile and bring him lunches to eat together.

Answer 3

My Boyfriend works 10 hours a day if not more, 7 days a week. At a physically demanding job. I usually get to hang out with him every night until midnight or so.  If I were you I would be suspicious. What kind of job does he work at? Also how long have you been going out?

Answer 4

im going to say this and its going to sound a little messed up but get over it. it happens what are you going to do when your married with kids and you never get to spend time together and you finally get to be in "bed" together and your little one walks in your room because he had a bad dream! people have to work and make money..h**l my boyfriend works from 8am-4pm then goes to work from 6pm-5am..he is always working you just need to try and make one day that you can spend time with him weather its watching tv on the couch or playing video games with him. As far as the girl goes if you can not trust him while he is at work then maybe you should not be in this relationship..He has to spend certain amount of time with her because he is at work. Just put more faith into him

Answer 5

Aww. Well people on here are going to be like"tell him how you feel" don't. Cuz that sounds really demanding. Also, I'm sure nothing is going on between him and the girl. If you really want to see him a lot maybe try and get a job where he works or close by. Now I don't know what it's like to be a guy but my cousin is 19 and just broke up with his girlfriend of 7 months cuz they didn't spend enough time together and she was to demanding. I'm not trying to scare you or anything but guys don't think like us. a girlfriends is just something extra. Not really top in his life. Also it counts how long you've been going out. If it was only a few weeks he is just getting used to it. And if it's been several months than I might be worried. Hope this helps. Hang in there sweetie.
