He does so well with my daughter and treats her like his own but I feel like ever since I moved in our relationship has gone downhill. He spends all of his time on his laptop and we discussed it yesterday. He says he does it to destress and it's not always about me. I can understand he needs his space but he gets on his laptop from the moment he wakes up till he goes to bed. I told him I'd like some attention and would like to spend more time with him but it seems that won't be happening. We've been texting a bit and anytime I say anything he says "you're right. You win" after I told him more than once I'm not playing games this isn't a win or lose type of thing. Well, he keeps saying "you're right. I lose" I texted "just forget it. Do what you do"What should I do?

Do you and your boyfriend have any common interests?
Have you asked him to show you what he spends his time doing on the laptop? If he is playing a game, perhaps you could show interest and learn about it and either watch him play or even give gaming a go yourself.
I lack the coordination and motor skills to play most games (most console and computer games). But, i enjoy watching my fiance play his video games. I watch while he plays the games in his spare time. In some weird but wonderful way it has been OUR hobby.
