writes: my boyfriend and I work different hours. He works night and I work day. For the first 2 years of our relationship it worked out fine, but the past two year have been a battle for me. We live together and spend a total of about 29 hours a week together. When I say together, I mean in each others presence. We hardly talk, really we do not have much in common. We rarely have sex, we have a date maybe once a month if I'm lucky. Otherwise he is off doing his own things and I am hanging out with my friends, doing my own things. We really have no common friends. We even go on seperate trips. I go with the girls, he goes w/ the guys. There is no jealosy in our relationship. No communication even when I try. No commitment. We live together and everything is split down the middle just like you would do with a roommate. Is it worth it?

How many years are you two together?
It sounds like twonty years together.
"For the first 2 years of our relationship it worked out fine"
This was "honeymoon period" - when you had honey and the moon.
At the moment you have bread and water - that is all you have.
You ask "Is it worth it?" - If both partners agree that it is.

In my opinion, this is worht it if you want someone who is just a roommate. If you want a boyfriend, I'm afraid this is much less than I would settle for. Seems to me that you're just used to each other.
Have you tried talking to him and asking how he feels?
Good luck,
