Men are different to woman. They dont communicate in the same way. They can be obtuse! You have relied on girlfriends the past few years and they are WAY more supportive and likely to ask how you are/feel etc.

But you feel that it shows a lack of connection or that your dreams/issues/problems arent as important as his job/schedule/problems. I can see how you might interpret it that way, but it may not be true? But even so, you'd like him to be more communicative/sensitive. I understand.

I have a friend newly married. Every night they sit on the worktops and "chat about their day".. everthing that was good, bad, what happened, how they feel.. he is as keen to do this as she is. They debrief, destress, then enjoy their evening. Sounds lovely. Me and bf do make time to sit and drink tea and have a chat about our day when we both get home too, although we didnt used to do this in our old R! Maybe you need to instigate a new routine like this...

ps.. just saw your post.. wow, thats very positive then! He is learning and growing...
