He works out for many hours a day, leading to our long distance relationship troubles!

Question - (17 August 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 17 August 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *ffthestage writes:

I have been in a long distance relationship for about two months now and everything has been going great until the last couple of weeks. At the beginning we used to talk ALL the time, everyday about 4 hours a day till we fell asleep on the phone together. The beginning of August he got really sick for a week and basically blamed it on me since "he never gets any sleep" when we talk. He also has an extreme addiction to working out which he does everyday from 9-6 and doesn't have a job or go to school. Its been affecting his relationships with others and now our relationship. I told him I would like to talk earlier but it seems to me that he isn't meeting me halfway and just neglecting me in general. This makes me feel as if I'm being selfish and needy which I am not used to feeling. I know that communication is key in relationships, he even speaks about how it is himself, and here I am trying to communicate that I want to talk earlier and more than we have but it doesnt seem to get to his head because hes so busy working out using it to try to hide from things. I don't want to lose him because I'm crazily in love with him and in this for the long haul. I'm just afraid of him feeling judged or unsupportive by me when I'm honestly just worried about his health and how its affecting everyone around him. So I guess I'm asking, what the heck do I do?!
