Hello Ladies.

I am having a very very hard time. I have a 3 year old daughter. My boyfriend (not the father of my child) works every single day of the week. He works every single day Monday through Friday 7am and doesn't get home around 9 at night. I get so so so very excited for him to come home to spend a couple hours with him before he goes to sleep. Then same thing the next day. Some days he calls me and says it will be an early day and I get so very excited, but then he drives back with his brother because they work together and they end up bullshitting and still not home around 9pm. During the weekends his brother and him do side jobs. So I get barley any time with him. Growing up weekends was "family days" and I wanted the same thing. For him it was the oppisite. And when he calls his brother to say he wants to stay home one of the days of the weekend to spend time with me his brother flips and says oh fine I'll hire someone else and give him a guilt trip about it. Every weekend I explain my feelings to my bf and cry saying I just want some of your time considering you work 14 hour shifts during the week. I feel as of I have to fight for time with my bf. He says he wants to have money. I get that. But happiness isn't all about money. And I explain that to him. That life isn't all about money. You have to also make time for your family as well. Am I wrong for for wanting to spend the weekends with him? Please I would love your opinion.
