how do you let your man know that you feel neglected? 🙇 he works 12+ hours everyday and I am really greatful he provides so well for our family but when he gets home he eats dinner, showers, and pretty much goes to sleep. my son and I see him maybe two hours before he goes to bed and he works Saturdays as well. Sunday he is always helping his friends or family. I just want a little bit of time and him to spend so quality time with his son before #2 is here...

Honestly just be honest and open. Be sure that before you tell him how you feel that you let him know you are not accusing him of neglect, or that you are blaming him, let him know you understand his work schedule and that he wants to help people, but remind him he does have a family.. I would use the word neglect maybe use the word alone, or you feel like you are in the background.

@gingermama, I feel like I'm raising our child on my own. anytime he sits down he is on his phone cuz his buddies or family want him and he feels like he can't say no..

He needs to realize he has his own family. Remind him his own father said no to people so he could spend time with him.

How did he feel when his father couldnt spend time with him.

"I respect that you provide for us and am grateful, but I am starting to feel lonely with you gone all the time. Is there any way you could spend some more time together?

My boyfriend has the EXACT same schedule. It's been really difficult. He got a wake up call when I told him I feel like a single mom even though he is still in the picture. Things are slowly but surely getting better

just tell him. the only thing to keep in mind is to not play the blame game. don't come at it saying all the things you think he is doing wrong, and don't put words in his mouth about why you think he is acting a certain way. just tell him how you feel, and what you think would help you not to feel that way.

be honest with him . my husband works almost the same schedule as yours. Sunday is family day for us though doesn't matter what we're doing as long as we're together.

Good luck! 🙁 I can definitely relate!!!😳 and mine travels ...so I can't even imagine what it would be like having 2 hours each evening! Plus my older child is in multiple sports and we have something every single night even if he is around! It's exhausting! I can't even imagine what it's going to be like adding a baby to our mix! Lol complete chaos I guess?!!!! Lol I hope you figure something out though-- it's no fun feeling like that!😩
