My boyfriend and I have been together about 18 months. The first year of that was long distance due to study, at the end of studying I moved back to my hometown/area to be closer to him, and my family. Since moving back we've had quite a few issues, more than I anticipated.

He's in the last year of his degree, so very busy, and I'm starting my own business, so I'm pretty busy and stressed out myself. But my biggest issue is that I feel like he doesn't make me a priority. And thats my question. What on earth do I do about that? We talk every day, but don't see each other very often, and often for just a couple of hours. On the other hand he finds time for other people in his life like friends and family.

I've spoken to him about how I feel, but it doesn't seem to make any difference, and I'm at a loss of what to do. Will this change? Is it worth staying if it doesn't change? What if our relationship is always 3rd or 4th on the list of priorities?

If anyone has opinions.... I'd love to hear them...

It sounds like you're right about you feelings. If he can find time for his freinds and family surely he would find time for you if you were a priority in his mind. I men I can respect the family thing, but surely he could include you in some of his activities.

If you have talked to him and nothign has changed, then walking is probably the best option. Though first I would sit down and make sure he understands without a doubt, how you feel. Perhaps even say If nothign chnages in X amount of time we're over. Because if he is unable to chnage and can't get out of long distance relationship mode and make you a priorty while you are near by, he clearly doesn't derserve you.

But talk to him seriously and make him understand or tell you how he feels. You may not like what you hear, but your better off knowling the truth and ending the realtionship. You derseve to be with someon who wants to see you and spend time with you.

My boyfriend and i just went through this and believe me it sucks and makes you feel horrible. If you have told him before tell him again. I had to do that and i got an answer from mine. It wasn't the answer i wanted but, at least i knew where we stood. I ended up walking away because he couldnt deal with his emotions and stress which spilled over to me & i wasnt gunna deal with that
