Girlfriend Spends More Time With Friends

    Hey all,
    Hoping you can offer me some advice with this. Been seeing my girlfriend for about 4 months now, just moved in together recently. We were friends before we hooked up for a few months, so I know her pretty well. Both of us are out of work, and Im going back to college in Sep myself. I get on great with her, can have a laugh together and I love having her around.

    But there's been 1 problem on my mind constantly, and even after many conversations with her, Im still left with the same problem. Her friends and family are constantly around. Out of a normal week, we get to spend maybe an hour or two alone in a day, mostly in the morning or before bed. This is really beginning to bother me. I feel insecure that she doesnt want to spend time alone with me. Her phone is constantly going off with texts and calls, usually those interupt if we're talking or spending time together. It really feels that friends and family come first, I can understand family being important. As an example this week, we planned 1 evening/night alone, but her family ended being with us for most of the evening. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you

    The only sensible option is to talk to her. I had a similar problem, so it's important to be clear because it's easy to misinterpret.

    perhaps she hasnt understood what moving in is all about??
    maybe she thinks its her place to get everyone around and gab on all night, have a talk with her a serious one and put the cards on the table, your not prepared to live with someone if you only get to spend an hour a day with them.
    see if her phone goes off while you are talking if she jumps on it then I wouldnt hold out much hope.

    best of luck
