Default Suggestions for something nice to do for him?
BF & I are in a long distance relationship and we're both really busy with new jobs. It's a struggle at this point to even find 10min in a day to call and say "HI, I Love You."

His bosses have him running ragged as they've moved around managers, so right now it seems like he's trying to do the job of 2-3 managers.... on his same pay scale. And I he's not even really sure how long he's going to have to keep doing this.

Between his job & my job, we've go NO time to fly and see each other, probably until late December, when I go on Xmas break (I work in the public schools). Right now, he has no time to play his game systems or go to the gym (his biggest stress relievers) and I'm at a loss on how to help at all from this distance.

Ladies, any suggestions on something nice I can do for him, that wouldn't stress him out more?

Nothing short of you being there. Unfortunately guys can be workaholics and view other activities as a waste of time. If you know his bosses maybe you could secretly arrange for time off for him?

JKP--NG appreciated when I sent him a Cookie Bouquet and work and sehen I sent him for a massage. Let me know if you want the names of the companies that I used. Hope things get better for the both of you soon!

Could you send him a little care package of treats, delivered direct to him at his work? Include things like a stress ball, some nice food, and a voucher to do something nice together when you see each other again.
