To me you sound like a workaholic because you don't seem to have time to do anything you enjoy beyond one project and working out. I would be completely miserable working as much as you do.
The biggest reason I think you could be a workaholic is that your bf says he wants more time with you and rather than cutting back on work, you post here to try and justify your work schedule. That seems like you're avoiding something to me. Of course, there is not a lot of info to work with here, so I'm mostly guessing.
I would be careful not to spend too much time justifying how much you work or need to work. Most of the time there are no emergencies at work and in this day and age you can always be reached on your cell phone. So, if there's really nothing going on at work and you aren't actually working, leave! Tell people how to find you and then go do somethine else you enjoy. If you find that you're often justifying how much you work to other people, I think it's a red flag.
There is more to life than working and working out.
After spending more than 20 years working to excess - I find I really don't know how to have fun.
All I know is work. I see women around me laughing and enjoying their life and free time . . . I want that for myself.
So . . you might burnout eventually but it might take awhile too.
Has your wife ever complained? Does she work full time?
Well, right now I'm supporting both my b/f and I. He's studying to be an accountant. I hear accountants work like dogs when they first start out but then they eventually make a lot of money. So, I guess I'll cut back on the work once both of us are working instead of just me. Owning a house is expensive...
