My fiancé and I were in a similar situation for the first year we were together. We’ve been together going on 5 years now, he’s still a workaholic, but I would never ask him to change. We both work from home now and I see him 24/7. Without our separate beginning, I don’t know how we would have turned out.

The first year we were together, my boyfriend was traveling every week (Monday through Thursday, sometimes longer). I think the time apart from each other helped build a foundation in our relationship that made us successful. Not only did this time apart help you build trust, but we’ve all heard the term “absence makes the heart grow fonder”. It’s actually true.

All that being said. We’re all different. Some people require more attention and affection than others, and there’s nothing wrong with that. I think the most important thing is that you’re honest with your partner about how you feel, but never ask someone else to change. My bet is, if you hold out a little longer, it will be worth it. Best of luck!
