[quote=Anonymous]I'm the female version of him. Is this a serious relationship? If you've just started dating and it's casual, yeah he doesn't have capacity right now to have all day long text conversations with someone he's just met. You get to the end of the day with a full-time job, then full-time parent and it is a lot to then be "on" again with someone in your life who is new. I think the comparisons with people who are married to spouses with high-demand jobs is unfair. It's a lot of work at first carrying on a conversation in a new relationship and finding fun and charming things to say. It's different when it's a longer-term relationship and the familiar banter is easy. I would cut him so slack. But if you can't and you need constant contact than let him go. Because trust me there is nothing less fun than giving all to work, giving all to your kid and then hopping on text or going out with someone who is constantly disappointed in what you have capacity to give.
