Been dating this guy for about 2 months. The first month we saw each other a lot almost every other day and all weekend both with and without his kids. Now for the last 1 month and half he only wants to see me on Wednesday night (late after 9pm) and Sunday afternoon.

I told him I would like to see him typical "date nights" Friday and Saturday but he always has an excuse why he cant. Friday nights he has "play dates" with his son and other friends that have kids(he never asks me to join them and I have asked). Then Saturday he says he likes to get "stuff" done so he can relax on Sunday. When I asks him what he did on Saturday he always tells me he saw a "friend" and did not get stuff done. I have also told him we don't need to do anything fun on Saturday and I would be happy to run errends with him but he ALWAYS has an excuess why I can't join him or tells me he wants to have "alone time " with his kids on Saturday.I can understand alone time with his kids BUT when I ask him what he did with his kids he will say oh hung out with a "friend".

I know being a single dad can be hard but I don't mind hanging out with his kids and doing kid friendly activities. I understand him also wanting alone time with his kids(something he never wanted before) but he has his kids every monday,Tuesday and Thursday and every other weekend so he gets lots of alone time with the kids. I just want to see him Saturday evening with or with out the kids.
Does this sound off to you? Am I asking for to much?
