Overacting and Too Sensitive?

My boyfriend (29M) and I (28F) have been dating for 8 years. He works two jobs during the week and the only time I get to see him is on the weekend, where we just lay in bed and watch TV and nap, or run a couple of his errands since I have flexibly and do my stuff during the week.

He’s the type who enjoys staying home and I like to go out and explore but because he works so hard I give in and we stay in on the weekends.

He has a bad way of communicating with me when he needs to do something. Today he stepped out to collect scrap metal with his friend and told me he’ll be back at 11:30ish, I didn’t hear from him at 12:30 where he said he’s going to return the trailer and go home. 2 hours passed and I still didn’t hear from him, once again he said he was done and was going to return the trailer then go home.

He followed up at 3pm and said he’ll be home at 3:45pm and repeatedly asked if I’m coming over and where I was.

I told him I was at the mall and would coming, I showed him at his house and he wasn’t home. I then called him and he said he was coming now.

We barely see eachother as it is and hardly talk during the week. I value our time on the weekend despite he’s sleeping majority of the time but at this rate, given how many times he’s done this to me I don’t feel important.

I always make the time to go and see him, but he never chases after me. He told me he was busy chasing money.

TL;DR: my boyfriend kept making me wait around for him and when I went to visit after he said he was home he wasn’t.
