I don't even know where to start, to keep this succinct. We've been together 3 years now, and he works 120 hours a week. I quit my job to take care of the home (no kids, just a lot of errands for the business professional) and to accompany him whenever he wanted me to go with him. We've had lots of terrible fights in the past, and I have blundered into some serious "deal breaker" red flags (escorts, being the main one). We have moved passed those, supposedly, but I am emotionally scarred and always looking over my shoulder.
His job requires him to be away a lot. At first it was local nights out with colleagues, lots of boozing, 4 or 5 am returning home. Then it was just lots of state travel where he would return when business was done, but not being able to call or check in at reasonable hours either. And now, three years into his soaring career- I am so unhappy and hurting.
I want to know: is it worth being in a relationship with someone who can provide financially, but not emotionally? Looking past negative aspects of the person, will the future get better and be worth all this pain?
Thanks.
