Am I asking for too much of his time?

Question - (3 February 2014) 3 Answers - (Newest, 4 February 2014)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been dating this guy for 4 months already. But my family and friends both feel that this guy is not right for me because he does not see me as an important person in his life. Part of me knows that, but the other part of me does not want to face reality because I want to salvage this relationship and work things out with him.

We used to spend a lot of time together, like almost everyday. But since I came back from a holiday last December, he's been spending most of his time with his friends. I'm not demanding for us to meet everyday and I know both our schedules are not really busy with school. All I'm asking for is to meet twice a week, even if its just for a short meal in school during our common breaks. But it feels like he can't even make time for a meal. In fact, he sees his friends (who are not from our school) a lot more than we used to meet (which was almost everyday) and the irony is that we are in the same school.

Am I asking for too much?

So_Very_Confused agony auntYou are not asking too much of a man that wants to be with you but if he wanted to be with you it would not be necessary to ask as he'd make the time easily to see you.

you want to salvage a 4 month relationship... what is there to salvage?

I have been in this situation with my boyfriend. Sometimes you have to ask yourself a bunch of questions. Why are you with him? What does he mean to you? What do you want from him? What are you willing to sacrifice for him? Ask him the same questions. You'd be surprised by the answers you'd get.

Good luck with your relationship. I'm happy to know I'm not alone. :)

No, you're not. I usually see my girlfriend a couple if times a week. But if your boyfriend isn't even making time for that, then you should probably move on from him. There's no point in staying with someone who just isn't there. You'll only end up increasingly hurt and unwanted, and that's just not good enough.
