I don't usually look to people for dating advice but...?

My boyfriend is a carpenter. He often works from 5am to 10pm then he has to drive home from work, make dinner, and take a shower. By then it's too late for him to come over or even talk to him on the phone unless it's a quick 5 minute coversation. We've been dating for about 3 years and I love him more than anything, but this is really beginning to drive me crazy. I was just really hoping I could get some advice on what I should do, thanks.I don't usually look to people for dating advice but...?
I am a carpenter too and know all about those long hours. Is he just trying to get ahead or make extra money? I did that for about 6 years. One thing that could help is a cell phone if he dosent have one. He could call you on the way home and talk to you that way. Do you see him on the weedends? If he is working that much during the week he probably works then too. I think you should just tell him that he is very important to you and that you would enjoy spending more time with him or atleast talking on the phone. If he loves you like you love him he should be willing to work on it..... but be patient us GUYS are kinda slow sometimes!!!I don't usually look to people for dating advice but...?
Yuo should be proud of your man for being such a hard worker. that will be a good thing when u 2 get married, thats prolly y he is saving money (assuming he is saving it and not buying dumb ****). Go to his house and make his dinner, if he works that much you should do everything you possibly can to ensure that he dosent have to work at all when he finally is at home...make his bed, clean hs room, cook for him, do his laundry, get his clothes layed out in the morning for him...all that good stuff
I doubt it if he is actually even at work all of those hours. You might need to do a little investigating and see what's really up.
If he has a day off get together. Like 4th of July, even though its not a weekend get together on that day!
If you guys have been dating for 3 years and he has a difficult schedule, why not move in together? At this point, you should be planning on marriage anyways.





There's a possibility he is up to something. I don't know but your concerns should be his concerns as well. Unless, he does not care about talking/spending time with you.
Talk to him about finding a different job.
and you really believe he's working that long everyday? hahahha
Well if you can't take it and it's driving you crazy, well what if your married..? It's gonna be like this, so i would have to say move on... It's sad to say, but its not fair for you to be in a relationship that your always alone with no one to talk to. So be good to yourself and do what is fair for you and not just for the sake of being in a relationship.





Also, I agree with lacrystal...
you should go to his house before he gets home from work, and make him a nice dinner and just cater to him since he works so hard. He would really apreciate it, trust me! Plus you get to spend time with him.
