am i being needy?

[needyornot]

new bf of about 5 months. I really like him, we get on great, he ticks all my boxes.
Except, he has an incredibly busy schedule that I feel leaves no time for 'us'. basically he is a gym bunny - mondays he does circuits, tuesdays squash, weds he meets up with mates to watch football (not every week), thurs running, fri gym, sunday football. we see each other once in the week for a couple of hours and at the weekend.
I appreciate that these are his hobbies, and that being a single man he has had lots of time to devote to his hobbies but I just want to spend more time with him, not just an hour before / after he does some fitness thing and at the weekend. When we have talked about it, he has agreed but has actually done nothing about it.
Now, I KNOW I have been needy in past relationships. I want to spend a lot of time with whoever I am with, and this can often push them away. but I think his schedule actually leaves no room for a relationship, which is a shame seeing as everything else is fantastic. I just feel he chooses his fitness over me, that if I was that important to him he would choose to see me more even if it meant missing a night of fitness???
so, am I being unreasonable / needy? anyone been in a similar situation?

The key here is;

'When we have talked about it, he has agreed but has actually done nothing about it.'

If he was really into you, he would not want to do all these things - he would make room for you in his life imo. Actions speak louder than words. After 5 months, I would not waste any more time with this person if you are left feeling unfulfilled.

Otherwise, in a few years time you will still be playing second fiddle to fitness, football and Fred.

yes, that it what I thought too - if he was into me he would make time for me.
shame, as everything about him is fantastic. Been single for a few years and not met anyone like him. I just dont feel that he has time for me

But after 5 months, if the relationship is for real, I think it's reasonable for the OP to want more than 2 hours here and a Saturday there and to be a bigger part of this man's priorities.

Only you can know what you want, OP but the problem is that if things are like this now and you are unhappy it could more than set the scene for the future. Would you prefer to be with someone who has more time to spend with you or are you prepared to live with the fact he's a gym addict and unlikely to change?

are you always available for him when he is free to see you? it might help if you are not always waiting to see him
