hey, i had put up a question yesterday "My BF works too much and I don't feel loved!" thanks for all the replies. but the real problem is that i have spoken to him about it. ive told him everything. all he says is that he doesnt no wot to do about it. he claims his overtime will stop soon becoz he believes where he works is going to cut down on it due to it being too expensive for them. he wants to get as much out of it as possible while it lasts. also. if he stops the overtime, his parents will think im controlling him. his dad especially. he was one of the reasons why i nver cn him over one of the previous holidays. i see that point very clearly.. his dad is his boss basicly so its rather complicated. i dnt think his family would b happy if he stoped bringing in money to c me instead. so we basicly still will only have the small time period we have and hes not allowed out aftr 5 or he is to miss his dinnr -_- ... i just dnt no wot to do... theres nuthing we can participate in other than wot we are doing already - which is wots making me feel less than a gf.

anyone have any advice?

AngelofLove agony auntIf the overtime will reduce soon then things should improve when busy period is over so remember that it is not forever. Sounds to me that his father is very strict but if you boyfriend is still very young to get his own place, he must respect certain rules whilst under fathers roof. Perhaps working for someonelse would help. Working with relatives is never easy but learning to be responsible and to have a job is a necessary evil. Try to be supportive and be there for him when possible. It may be hard at the moment and remain positive.Hopes things get better.
