I honestly care a lot for my boyfriend and I understand a lot of the things and the long hours of school and work. I understand that he's tired I let him sleep, but honestly it's just becoming really frustrating that he just sleeps when I can finally have quality time with him. We both have jobs and go to school. I understand how tiring it is but, he just wants to spend the quality time with me just sleeping which is boring and frustrating. I try telling him but he just gets so upset and then we start arguing, and I'm just so frustrated and I don't know what to do.

What I would do is probably arrange a date for the both of you. Whenever you guys aren't busy working or going to school. Just something simple, the two of you go and have lunch at park, you guys so see a movie during the week, you go to the mall and just window shop. Whatever you would like, just make it special. Just forget about all the rocky stuff that's going on in your relationship right now, and just try to make up for it. Maybe with this outing it will help turn things around and hopefully get the both of you in a better mood.

To me it just sounds like you guys just need to get out more, and spend quality time together. If you like him, and he likes you then I don't see why this wouldn't work. Give it a shot at least, and see where it takes you. Take care of yourself. :)

You need to sit this boy down and let him know how you feel. You've said you both have busy lives with school and jobs to go to but if it's affecting your relationship you need to let him know. I know people who just can't handle school, a job and a relationship and the relationship has to go, or people who decided they don't want a relationship as they are busy enough. If you want to save the relationship you need to let him know you are unhappy with the amount of time you two spend together and that he needs to put in more of an effort, otherwise you might need to reconsider the relationship.

good advice above - I guess if he is tired and you are frustrated its just all an argument waiting to kick off - you both need to make time together but decide is it worth missing work a shift or two.

I have to agree with everyone else so far. Changes need to be implemented, clearly. You both need to talk to each other. Figure out if the relationship makes sense anymore.

In my opinion, for a relationship to have meaning and purpose, you both need to sit down and discuss the "pros and cons" of the relationship. You both need to stop arguing but arguing in relationships is healthy, just don't let things get out of hand.

You need to get this boy off his ass and get him to do things with you. Let him know you are not happy with how the relationship is going so far and unless things change you might not want to be in this relationship any more. Hope that helps.
