Man is a Workaholic!?
453291
I use to own my own business and he is telling u the truth.  Alot of people think when u own your own business u can make your own hours and just come and go as u please.  Thats not neccessarily true!  You have to put ALOT of time into the business in order to make it run smoothly.  Thats one of the reasons I finally sold it- cuz it never ever gave me time to myself or my family.  Atleast he is reserving all of his weekends for you.  And atleast u know he is out working his butt off and not fooling around!  He could have worse habits!  Why dont u pop in every so often and take him to lunch?  Or stop in and pounce him in his office and give him a little afternoon delight!  If he cant get away then u go to him!!!!!  surprise him more often!  Good luck to u!

ask yourself this  question  does this man work??  in this day and age one has to have a phone for communication and wheels to get around if he cant manage to maintain either  how can you expect him to maintain a healthy relationship with you  hell I bet he lives at home with his parents

The fact that you posted this question means that you want to continue working. Have you discussed this with him? If you have, and he refuses to budge about letting you work, then you really need to question your relationship with him. I also have to wonder if he is pressuring you to give up your time with friends and family, too. Does he get upset when you are on the phone too long? Or irritated when it takes you too long at the store? Does he insist on going everywhere with you? All of these things are warning signs that he is controlling, and possesive. Be careful! They are also things that lead to abusive relationships. If he just simply wants you to give up your career, and won't budge about letting you do what you want, you need to ask yourself if you can live like that, or if it's time to move on and find someone who will encourage you to succeed.

If he works to support you, and you are not working outside the home then you really have no right to complain.  I mean, you do get to stay at home, so why should he work 8 hours a day and have to come home to help you.  I don't think you are being fair.

hey just because he works is no reason to think he is crazy. you should be proud of him at least he not wearing out the couch sitting on his haunches.

He is probably stressed out from work. I suggest you take him to the physician. There IS a problem.

this guy needs a life

he is just trying to be nice- of course maybe it's just wind?\n\nGive the guy a break- maybe his interpersonal skills aren't that good. It's better than a boss who frowns all day, surely.

I agree with you...and I do have fun at work. Lots of fun. It's challenging and mentally exhausting and emotionally draining, but it's also exhilarating. (Thanks for the advice, too)

i'm with someone right now that has a job but only does it because he has to, you know? he really doesnt like working, and around the house, he's really not the most motivated person on the planet.\nbut, he's the best man i've ever met. he's sweet, sensitive, funny, outgoing, playful, he pays attention, he is my dream man. so even if for some reason he quit working perminantly, yeah i'd still stay with him.

You have to look to their talents and motivation. This person has things they are passionate about. You must find these (hopefully these passions are in the field they are working) and use these talents. If this person is having fun they are less likely to be lazy. You could have them take a skills test to see if they are in the right job. You could ask them about there job too. See if they think they are working hard. Maybe they are just bored and need a new assignment. Worst case scenario is they are just not motivated and anything you do is a waste of time.

He probably does odd jobs on occasion when he wants/needs money.  Like mowing lawns, or hauling stuff, or selling drugs, or studding out his male dog...who knows. You could just ask HIM to be a bit more clear.

The height of laziness Fidgety! The man is not really lazy he is energetically declined!\nReminds me of the farmer who had ten employees on his farm,and all were notoriously lazy.One morning,he decided to try and cure them of their laziness once and for all.\n"Men." he said,"I have a nice easy job for the laziest man on the farm.Will the laziest man step forward?"\nImmediately nine of them stepped forward.\nThe farmer looked at the one man left behind and said:"Why didn't you step forward along with the others?"\n"Too much trouble."
