I don't even know where to start. You see, when I met my boyfriend he is this super workaholic guy. Up until now, he is. I don't get why I always have to compete with his work to get his attention. Even if we're together, he often takes phone calls for work even until late in the evening.

I also can't understand why whenever he talks to his employees, he is so enthusiastic but when it's me he's talking to, I just think there's some severe lack of enthusiasm in his voice.

I can't help but feel very jealous of his work. He talks to his work partners and employees with glee and even if we're together, I know it's all he's thinking about. When we walk in the mall, he always seems to be in deep thought, and I ask him what he's thinking about, he doesn't answer. I know it's work. It's always about work.

I just feel jealous because I know that I can never be as special to him as his work.

I feel like a prisoner right now. I can't dump him. I know I can't. I love him too much for me to do that, but I don't know how long I can put up with this.

He keeps telling me not to put him in a position wherein he'd have choose between his work and me, but you see, that's the thing I'm most afraid of. I know the answer. And it's not me.

I don't really see what you can do in this situation besides hope that he realizes he should be paying more attention to you.
What kind of work does he do that he's that much interested in?

Well since i don't know your gender, if you're female it's time to reevaluate what you two want in this relationship. Try to find the reason for the breakdown in communication, if you can't isolate and the problems still arise. You may have to make a decision to end it, it will hurt but in the end it will be for the best. And if you're a dude,(not that there is anything wrong with that) i don't give a shit

You just need to get out of the relationship, look what it's doing to you. You can't change him. And it's unfair for you to ask him to change considering you got into the relationship knowing how devoted he was to his business. He's a business owner. In advertising, no less. I'm not saying that gives him an out to treat you this way but as sad as it is to say, you got yourself into this.

How long have you two been together?

One of life's lessons: you can't change people to be what you want them to be. He sounds like he's either becoming a worse work-a-holic, or he's trying to tell you something without telling you in words. I think he's made his choice, and now you have one to make.

from a workaholic who's married. My drive to succeed is in being able to provide for my wife and kids. If he's not driven at work for your happiness and enjoyment, and then you're not the one for him and he's not the one for you. With that my wife gives me a lot of flexibility, but I make sure not to neglect her in return.

It's great that he has a job he loves, but if that constantly obscures his love for you, why are you still with him?

Count me as a workaholic, I'm available to my boss and the guys I work with 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Phone calls, text messages, e-mails - everything. It's just who I am and when I'm in a relationship with someone, they know that about me up front. Don't try to change me. If this guy is a workaholic, then that's just who he is, it doesn't necessarily mean that he doesn't care about you or that you're not a priority in his life. Make the most of the time you do get together and don't nag him to where he feels trapped between trying to make a decision between the two of you. If you can't do that, then you should get out of the relationship.

You knew he was a workaholic when you got involved with him. He has not changed. You have apparently accepted what he is for up to 1.5 years, but don't want to anymore. You have changed. Really if you have told him how you feel and he hasn't at least said he'll try to improve, you aren't gonna get anywhere. He just doesn't feel like you do. Not much you can do but move on.

P.S.You're better off alone than with someone who isn't into you enough to at least try to make your life a little happier.

In all seriousness, though, if you don't like having lots of time to yourself then don't date a workaholic. I don't really require a lot of maintenance, but I do like for Manny to be totally present when he's with me, and he knows that. We're not together 24/7, but the time spent together is quality time. If you don't even feel like you're getting that, and "We need to talk" hasn't worked, then you need to do some personal evaluation and make a decision.


He told me that things won't change within the next 5 to 10 years or so.

Yeah, he sounds like he's pretty much telling you to either suck it up or break up with him.

LOSE THE ZERO AND GET WITH THE HERO AMIRITE????????


Shelly made the best post in here. You can't change people. Any person you enter into a relationship with is who they are and just because you love them doesn't mean that the relationship HAS to work in the end. In the end you may find that you both want different things and expect different things out of a relationship and even though you've formed a bond it isn't what you want.

ORRRR maybe you make concessions to keep the love that you have. Either way, don't expect him to change. You know what kind of person you're involved with and either you're willing to accept what you're getting out of it to keep the love you have or you don't.

You know what you want, suck it up and make the tough decision one way or another.

A few years ago i found myself in a relationship where he graduated from school, and all of his time was devoted to work. As much as i loved him, it was clear after a talk that work was number one priority. That he was trying to establish such and such goal by such and such age.

I stuck around for a while, but it takes a toll on someone. It strains a relationship, and it seriously isnt healthy for either of you. My advice is if you know hes not going to change, and hes made that clear. Leave the situation. It will be painful for a while, but you will get over it over time.

My two cents.

Anyway it's all been said already. Either accept him for who he is or move on to find that missing part that you seem to long for.

You need to take a step back and think for a bit. What would you tell someone in your position?

Don't be blinded by love. That shit will get you in trouble in the future sooner or later if you're unhappy now. It'll just keep repeating over and over if you're not careful even though you've come to "accept" it. You may think you've accepted it but you also may have subconsciously surpressed it. That stuff will start seeping out during fights and sooner or later, boom, it all comes out again. Friendly advice. :p:

Honestly, I don't know. I seem to have lost perspective.Relationships and love need some kind of comprise. If one party gives while the other takes, the first party is going to be really unhappy and you don't want to be unhappy.

I don't really know your situation but this is what I'll say.

Don't be blinded by love. That shit will get you in trouble in the future sooner or later if you're unhappy now. It'll just keep repeating over and over if you're not careful even though you've come to "accept" it. You may think you've accepted it but you also may have subconsciously surpressed it. That stuff will start seeping out during fights and sooner or later, boom, it all comes out again. Friendly advice. :p:

Anyway I'm not saying to break up with him. This is really up to you now how you'll approach this and you say you'll accept it so good luck. :toast


Touche.

But how can I not be blinded by love? It hurts me, yes. But it also makes me very happy at the same time.

From what I can follow on a message board, they're both same-sex oriented, but from opposite sides of the aisle. Funt is F and SB is M.

I haven't had time yet to read the whole thread so this may have already been suggested.

But,

Is there any aspect of your partner's business that he would let you help him with?
He might be more relaxed while getting things accomplished, which might bring out more of his personality.
Also, it would give you the opportunity to both enjoy being near him and being a part of what matters to him.

That's what I was thinking. Sounds like a family dynamic being re-lived and brought forward into his own life. Tough to either break out of that on your own, or find any happiness without doing so.

Pathetic.

Im with Cucking Funt on this one.

You make a thread to whine about your situation feeling unloved, crying, trapped whatever. Obviously you are unhappy otherwise you would had not made this thread but you come here asking for advice just to completely disregard it.

He has not changed and will not change. Why would he? You give him no incentive to, he can do what he wants (work) and fuck you when he has an urge. He made it clear that he is not interested in things being different, he told you that yet you insist on believing that by some miracle he will wake up one morning and suddenly be completely different.

You want to suck it up fine but then stop complaining. Sounds to me like this is not about how much you love him but about how little you love yourself.

I'll just throw this out there regarding the original point in this thread. If your significant other finds work more important than you, has his mind on work even when you're alone with him, is distracted by work on a regular basis, cannot make compromises about his work for you, gives up social activities or hobbies because of his work, appears emotionally distant because of his work, then it all leads to the possibility that he's addicted to work.

It's just like an addiction to substance use, to food, to sex. And if he can't at least compromise in some way to value time with you when away from work, that can be a big problem for a long term relationship. If you can manage to ignore it or rationalize it in some way and continue in the relationship-more power to you. Just doesn't seem like you'll be very happy in the long run.

You're just too sweet to me.

Your point is a valid one. While a tough situation, this isn't about right or wrong. People's priorities are all over the board. Either you can accept his or you can't. If you ask him to change and he does, more than likely he resents you for it. If you ask him to change and he doesn't, more than likely you resent him for not doing it. If you accept him for who he is, you'll be fine, if that's what you want. If you don't want that, hit the bricks.

It's as simple or complex as you want to make it.

We're a lot better now. I think it doesn't matter how much he loves his work. As long as he allows me to love him, that's enough for me.

"As long as he allows me to love him, that's enough for me." Wow. It's a big sacrifice to give love but not get the love you need back in return. You talked about crying for no reason before, which suggests you need something back. Good luck with that.

Manny - you had a go at me for not knowing him and calling his priorities out of whack. I see what you're getting at, but IMHO if your partner is obviously messed up by your lack of caring/attention/time/love (and he/she is TELLING you so), and you're not willing to give it because work is more important to you, then your priorities ARE out of whack. You should either give your partner what he/she needs (ie. more time/love), because you are affecting his/her life (hell, in many cases, you are the most important thing in his/her life), or if you think your work really is more important than him/her, break up with him/her. You could also argue that he/she should just leave him/her, but it seems to me that the workaholic is the one with the power in the relationship as it has been described, which complicates things.

BTW, when was the last time you said anything nice to me? The love is gone... :depressed :lol

Oh, and you basically called me out for being judgmental - why didn't you call out everyone else in this thread for the same thing? It's not like what I said was any more judgmental than most of the other views expressed...
