Is it always like this?!

Hi,

I’ve just started seeing a primary school teacher. It was him that instigated getting chatting and the first date. He’s lovely and his job and commitment to it was initially one of the things that I was attracted to - a ‘people/caring’ job, with comparable pressures to mine.

However he is ALWAYS working - rearranged a couple of dates, often still working at 2AM.

I have subtly mentioned this a few times - to moy much effect, and then I came out with it, and asked if he thought he had time for a new relationship - he replied he did ‘at the weekends’.

He isn’t newly qualified, BUT has additional responsibility with in the school.

I don’t know whether I want to continue trying. Am I being awful?

(And yes...3 different coloured pens are required in our Marking Policy and a minimum 75 hour working week...I'm literally on my knees and can't continue like this 😢😢)
