Not the wanting part no but mine wont do weekends either or vacations. I see so many on here get contact whenever and it makes me sad sometimes but then I think, my T has a life, he deserves time away from work as anyone else does. I can't and don't expect him to be on call for me 24/7

Thankfully being independent, like you, I'm used to doing things alone so I've just gone to my old habits on weekends and such. (although I dont email T at all anymore, long story)
I guess I would say, it's hard but give him his space, give him some free time on weekends.

Use that time for self reflection, journaling or any other things you can think of to keep yourself distracted. I think it's normal to want to TRY to push limits with people but I really think those who don't even when tempted, are often more respected.

It's tough but you can do this. Maybe try writing letters or emails on the weekends but not actually sending, then talk about it in person. He can read them there if you are not comfortable. Good luck
