I just need to blow off some steam, and what better way to do that than to tell all of you random strangers.
My boyfriend is amazing, I actually secretly believe he’s Superman. He works two jobs, a 4/10 job and the regular overnight(work from home) job. On top of that he has 3 kids, the most well behaved and mannerly kids I’ve ever met. And he also spends one of his day off helping his parents do grocery shopping, or fix anything in their house. He truly is Superman in my eyes. But it sometimes feels like he always makes time for everyone else but me. He has his kids on the weekends so I never complain when he spends time with them, I would never want the kids to feel like I’m pulling him away from them.
It sucks sometimes because it always feels like whenever I finally get a chance with him, he either decided to work an extra shift, decided to spend the whole day helping his parents, or sleeping. I try to be supportive, I try to understand the weeks he has where he’s always on the move and never has a chance to relax. But it just gets old sometimes. It’s been over a month since we actually had a day.....a couple hours actually dedicated to just us.
I just needed to get this off my chest, he’s not always the easiest to talk to, so I’d rather not go down that road and be considered selfish or inconsiderate. Anyways, rant over. Carry on with your funny pictures. Thank you to those who decided to stop in and listen to me vent.
TL;DR: Picture says it all really.
Edit: After a few hours of talking and listening to you amazing people, it has given me hope. I truly love my boyfriend and will take into consideration some of your wonderful advice. I apologize to those who sees me as ungrateful and the deadweight in the relationship. I hope that one day when you find someone you love, you will understand that giving a blow job once in a while doesn’t fix anything. I promise you, our sex life is nothing to worry about. Thank you all for listening.

You should make time for a job for him. Then talk.

Does this count?

It’s not selfish to make your needs known. You’re partners! You need to have each other’s back. You have his and he needs to know how to/
ShapesofKindness
/have yours! You’ll both be happier for it
NothingRhymesWithClockworkOrange
That's why you're his girlfriend, not his wife. Sorry....
CynicalButton
That’s some cold ass truth right there.
browndirtboy
He does it all for you. He counts on you. Let him down or let him know he can.
CynicalButton
I’m going to continue to be supportive and never make him feel like he’s made me unhappy. I love this guy to bits.

Send him some naughty pictures to remind him what he is missing

As a man I guarantee it will work

You know what would teach him a lesson? If you sent me nude pictures of yourself! That would show him a thing or two sister!

@op if you become single I've been looking for you... Seriously, check out my bio
LoremIpsumEtCetera
Wow....read your bio. Does that work for you? Seems a bit...desperate and pathetic.
TBarracuda33
Yes, it's worked currently FWB with gitl I met on imgur.

Are you hoping it will get better? It won’t. When the kids hit high school things really get busy.
CynicalButton
I don’t have a problem with the kids TBH. We’ve been talking about fighting for custody.
CynicalButton
2/? BF’s baby mama doesn’t really take care of the kids. It worries me to see and hear the shit that happens at her house.

3/3 Chances are slim, but we have hope. They truly are amazing little buggers.

Sounds like you’re not a main priority for him, but he is a main priority for you. That’s a huge problem. It’s harsh, but talk to him about
Reyn187h
It. If he doesn’t want to try to dedicate time to you, you’re not important. It needs to be fixed or you need to suck it up and leave to
Reyn187h
Find someone who is on the same page as you and who makes you a priority in their life.
CynicalButton
I’m hoping not to call it quits just yet. I’m going to talk to him. Hopefully it helps.

How did it went ?
iScrollWithMyThumbs
Stay or go. He's already spread thin. He loves you. His plate is full. You're on the plate too. But YOU have to choose, stay or go. GL Op.

spent today with my busy Lawyer bf watching “Friends”. You NEED that time. Told him he wasn’t doing enough recently and it improved so much.
CynicalButton
I try not to push it. I know he needs his rest. But it would be nice to just have a second just to ourselves.

Organize some rest for him, he will appreciate that and that will be the time you spend only together.

Hope you get custody of the kids but when you do - expect to see some hell he's going through.

I don’t blame you at all. Love & closeness doesn’t happen from nothing it takes effort & work. & If something feels off, it’s because it is
CynicalButton
It’s not like our sex life is suffering. Oddly enough, he always has time for that. But I don’t want our only interaction to be sex.
