My boyfriend said his job will always be more important than me

DEAR DEIDRE: MY boyfriend tells me his job is more important than our relationship. If that’s how he feels, I want out.

He travels a lot, so we don’t get together too often.

But even when he is in town, he doesn’t always arrange to see me.

We are both 31, so we’re hardly teenagers. I’m a woman who wants a future with somebody.

We argue because of the way he treats me. We haven’t patched things up since our last argument.

I know he doesn’t actually love me.

Blocking him on social media seems childish. But how do you forget somebody whom you love but who always hurts your feelings?
