Me and my partner have been together for 4 years and have a 17 month old little boy! My partner works in a stressful, high powered job. He’s always done this line of work from when he left school. The issue I have is my partner is OBSESSED with his work. He can’t switch off, it’s all he talks about. He goes on and on to anyone that will listen and I can see people aren’t interested because he tells stories in detail about contracts, law etc that you wouldn’t understand unless you was in that role. On the weekend he’s completely shattered and stressed from work and just lays around or is like a zombie, carries his work phone around and talks about work. Our son has no connection with him because I think he can pick up the stress. Another big part is we don’t have sex - which is down to my partner because he says he’s too tired/stressed/anxious/full up/feels sick (always an excuse) we had an argument about it and he’s come back saying he’s suppressed and that I don’t listen to him enough about work!!! I’ve been actively trying to listen to see if it will help and be more lenient with him doing nothing on the weekend but not enough apparently! He says I don’t actively care about his job and my response is - I can’t care because it’s something that’s no interest in me and I don’t understand it (unless I did a uni degree) so there’s only so much advice and interest I can give?! Me caring about his job is by looking after our child, making sure he always has dinner, clean clothes and doesn’t need to do anything at home and always telling him how proud I am of him and how much I appreciate him but it’s just not enough. It’s driving me mad and I feel like we’re near the end!!!
