My fiancée and I have been together for five years. We are both 28. We have a beautiful one year old daughter together. Before we were pregnant, he spent his days off fishing and shooting guns with his friends and it wasn't that big of a deal. After we had our daughter he spends his two days off and sometimes takes a day off to go fishing. I'm a stay at home mom and I take care of our daughter 24/7. He may feed her and give her a bath. Lately we've been getting into arguments about the amount of time he fishes. He admitted to me that he will never stop fishing and that if I don't "get over it" that this relationship will never work. I don't care that he fishes. I care that he's never here and he doesn't care. He doesn't think it's a big deal. Is this something I just have to deal with or is there any hope in him changing? (link)

I think that you should sit down with your fiancee and explain to him why you think he should limit his fishing time. Explain to him that you feel you are doing everything for your daughter and would like his help.
Maybe you could work on certain set times for fishing that you both could agree on and you could make a chart for which of you does what different days.
Instead of yelling, calmly explain your oppinion and reasons that you support it.
Good Luck!
