Sounds like you've good reason to feel frustrated and disappointed. Is he aware of how all of this leaves you feeling? I wouldn't start such a conversation in an accusatory tone, but one in which you state how lonely and empty you are feeling. How you have hopes and dreams for a future together that includes dinners together even if not every single night and going out and enjoying couple time to reconnect and maintain your bond. Remind him how you love him and see him as your best friend. Ask him to help you figure out how to fix this rut of a routine your relationship is in.

Most nights of the week he doesnt even come home until after im in bed.

We dont go anywhere together or do anything together. I just feel like i cant depend on him for anything. This is not the marriage that i wanted. I thought we were best friends and would be able to have a rad relationship and life together but its just empty and lonely.

^^^This. The burden need not rest on your shoulders alone.
