I've been dating a really lovely man. When we are together, it's great. I fancy him more than any man I've fancied, and he has so much of what I am looking for in a partner. After 5 years of being single, and dating endlessly (and painfully), I thought finally maybe I had met the right guy. But there are complications: he is going through a divorce, and has his kids 50% of the time. He is in a very busy corporate job, where he works extremely long hours. He was recently promoted so the hours are even longer now. I see him once a week, and we message every day. But despite a few requests from me, he doesn't call. When he was first promoted, two weeks would go by without seeing each other, due to long working hours and childcare. Things got a bit better. But seem to be going back to how they were. During the summer, we didn't see each other for two weeks, as he went on holiday with his children and relatives for a week - which was lovely for him - then work took over for another week. However, he didn't call me the entire time. We went on holiday a few months ago, so we did get some time together. He knows this is an issue for me, but things seem to be continuing in this manner, and I get he's busy, and things will improve once I'm more integrated in his life, and I meet his family. But I am really struggling and feel like an afterthought and like I'm not a priority.I'm finding it difficult to keep connected in the weeks that go by. I am very independent, travel lots, and have a busy job and career myself. But I am lonely most nights, despite having friends, going to the gym, I have hobbies etc. I don't know whether it's worth talking to him again, or whether I should end things, as I don't see them getting better any time soon. Also, it keeps creeping up on me - if he were really into me, which he seemed to be before work took over (and I know men can have tunnel vision), wouldn't he be calling and making a little more time for me?
