Issues with my long time partner
How do you handle a long term relationship that is going through a super rough time? I don’t live with my partner but we’ve been together for 8 years and they have been under a lot of stress with their new business venture as well as their regular 9-5! They rarely call anymore and they barely text anymore unless they are texting to tell me about the stresses. I tried talking to them and they told me that they know it’s hurting our relationship and that it’s hurting them but they haven’t chosen to try to help ease the issues. Selling the business will take lots of time and effort and they will cause issues before that’s done and I don’t know if I can stay with then through this because all of my needs are not even close to being met.
The other issue is that my life is in huge transition as well with my career and my new home etc. I feel even more isolated during this time.

I'm really sorry that you are not getting the support that you need.
You are both going through alot right now and emotions must be inevitably running high, it's easy to react.
But eight years is a long time.
I would just without an ultimatum make it clear to your partner, that you both need even a night, to eat, chat, open up, be honest, see how you both move forward, reconnect, before things get worst and fester 💜💜
Wishing you both the best 💕
