Hey there, It is not selfish of you to want time with your partner and I know what it feels like thinking you are second best (my husband spends all his time on his cars)Unfortunately the start of a new business IS extremely time consuming. He will need to focus most of his time and efforts on it for a while. The fact he is starting a business is good though and he is probably thinking that this business will give you both some security and a stable income. Try not to be too hard on him, he may begin to feel that his efforts are going unappreciated.Just try to stay positive and remember that things will get better in time.The fact he seems distant will no doubt be down to the fact he has an awful lot on his mind.I hope this helps xxx T
