My LD boyf (m25) and I (f23) just started dating after knowing each other for years and years and over the past months transitioning our friendship into a romantic relationship. We have had little humps to get over during this transition and one that I’m most recently struggling with is his time for me. He has a full time job, he’s a student (idk if he’s part time or full time but studying takes a lot of his time) and is working on personal development (working out, journaling,etc) and then *me*. being LD so we text pretty much all day but I get my connection via FaceTime calls. Before dating I noticed how stressed he gets with balancing a schedule so I was concerned he didn’t have time for me aka a relationship. He shut it down and told me that he did. I’m now finding myself with the same concern. I want to call him but he doesn’t have time and it’s going to be 4 days since we last called. Ik 4 days may seem short but I value those calls since, like I said, that’s where I get my deep connection. Not calling regularly impacts my emotional state but I feel selfish bc he always stressed about not having time for anything. I feel bad but on the other side, I know its not my fault and he’s the one who has made those decisions for himself whether he wanted to or had to. Plus, I see my friends who live a similar lifestyle being able to balance their school/work/social/ relationship life so I get frustrated about that. I know with my friends, it may not be easy in actuality but it’s so hard not to compare

Idk how to feel about it all.

TL:DR I feel like my new bf doesn’t have enough time for me and I feel selfish and not sure how to handle to situation
