I feel for you, jay-ba.
In my previous job, I stayed on the road for 11 years. It was exciting to see all the new places, but it really started getting old after the third year. It is hard to maintain a relationship in absentia. It cost me a marriage, and a lot of excess wear and tear on the body and the spirit. I finally made a career change and left the road for good about 1-1/2 years ago.
I now have a different set of priorities than I did before. I'm still solo, but at least I am in a position to nurture a relationship now.
I guess the bottom line is to rearrange your life so that your priorities are in their proper order.
And BTW - Pixies is not a replacement for a relationship, it just gives you a way to connect until you find the real thing. Don't fall into a trap of your own making.
