Anyone deal with a SO that has to travel a lot for work during the weekends? Dating this guy I really like but he travels a lot on the weekends for his career. It's hard that I barely see him.

Does he really travel for his career though? 🤔

I’m in the same boat. I try to flex where he’s going whenever possible. We FaceTime every day we’re apart, which helps a lot. It’s much better than a phone call.

Yeah he's in sports management. He has to travel with his team.

Thanks for the advice A1. I am just trying to make sure I don't intrude on him and the team when he is working.

Oooh, he got that money? Lol yeah it's hard to go with when he's working, but see if he wouldn't mind!

We should form a club OP! My boyfriend works in baseball operations.

Maybe he just wants to travel to see his other GF. 🤷🏼‍♀️

The scarcity might inflate your level of interest....if he was around all weekends that might change the dynamic.
