My partner works long hours. He gets 2 days off when he sleeps or chills out on his first day and sometimes will do stuff with the family on his 2nd day off and then he’s back to work. I get it that he’s exhausted he needs rest but being a stay at home mum at the moment I always look forward to him being off so we can spend time all together and my little one is also asking for him all the time. I know bills need to be paid but I get upset that we only have one day all together and sometimes even on that day we don’t even do much. I’m thinking when I’ll be back to work and we won’t have the same days off we will be like flat mates and even see each much less or not at all since he gets home late at night we don’t even have evenings and dinner together.

Anyone in this situation and thinking the relationship and the family life just is non existent and that is putting a strain on it. I feel so lonely I feel like a single mum raising and educating my little one on my own.
