hi, before i get any further into this relationship. and commit anymore time and effort, i'd like to get some views on some of you mners who go through this.

exp was also known to work very long hours. so that i'm used to.

but, NM seems to get all consumed by it some days and there will be no contact at all from.

he's a genuine workaholic who works long hours as he enjoys his job. not like my ex who worked long hours as it was the line of business he choose.

i find hard working a great quality.

anyone else got a partner who gets completely obsessed by it if something happens at work. losses all track of time. doesn't talk to anyone outside of work.he goes to work early hours.comes home late. works till bedtime. goes for couple of hours kip then back up again.

It was a gradual thing for us, but has really ramped up since he reached a top level job, a couple of years ago. Plus runs his own business on the side. [sigh] It's more than anyone could cope with but he seems to think he's invincible.

ah see now. NM has the invicible thing. says he's "superman" .

of course i am "superwoman" aparently , as i say i too can deal with anything.

but question is can i deal with his workaholic thing with all my own stuff
