The problem with relationships and chronic fatigue?

Spending time together is an element of my partner's day, after work, cooking, housekeeping, etc. For me it's the only highlight of the day, the only event that feels like I have a purpose, what I'm pretty much just waiting around for the rest of the day while she's busy with all those other things.

Of course I don't expect a healthy person to give up everything else, but this difference in perspective and meaning of "us time" tends to create enough friction to stop any bonding progress before it really gets anywhere.

That was my realization of today. Now I need to figure out how to deal with this. But first: sleep. (If I can put my thoughts on this on hold for long enough.)

so in some postings you're a virgin and in others you're in a LTR
@pancakeslam I'm currently not in an online relationship, have been before (sort of?*), but have never been laid and didn't mention either experience here. So what's your point?

*It depends on what you call a relationship. Never made anything official, never lasted long, never got really far.

@NerdyPotato I was just asking for context so I can answer better.
