Do any of you out there get fed up with the amount of time your dh/dp spends on work-related activities? I ask because my dh is currently holding down 2 different roles (one full-time, one part-time). He decided to take on this second role because it he felt it was a good career move, but the problem is that he has become so incredibly busy. When he is at home, he is always tired and needs to lie down quite regularly because he also suffers from tension headaches. He goes through a LOT of headache pills and is constantly having to fulfil different work commitments. This concerns me because I don't know how much longer he can keep up the pace, but it also affects our home life. We do get some benefits because of his job but lately I've been getting upset because I can't remember the last time we spent time together as a family. I get most of the responsibility of looking after ds and when my in-laws came to stay recently, it was me that spent all my time with them (driving them around, cooking, entertaining them) while he was hardly ever there. Basically, we struggle to have any quality time together and even when he takes time off work he gets bombarded with phone calls and sometimes gets called back into the office for some reason or another. We are now starting to clash about the situation & it's causing a few problems. Is there anyone else in this situation and if so, how do you deal with it? I heard recently that over-commitment to work is one of the main things that causes marriage problems, and I can fully understand this.
