My Fiancé’s job is ruining our relationship

Long story short, my fiancé works in law enforcement and he can work up to 12-16 hours a day. We barely have time or see each other. I feel like we’re strangers. I’m at the point now where I feel myself falling out of love with my fiancé. I love him but I’m not in love with him anymore. Every time we talk about it, he’ll gripe and moan about how horrible it is but nothing changes. I’m at the point of walking out the door as we speak. Can anyone help?

It's always great asking for advice/opinions but at the end of the day you're going to make the decision for yourself and you know your last straw. From what you stated above and through the conversations it sounds like you know what you want but you're looking for validation which is fine.
If you truly feel like him working this much is something you cannot get over then I suggest walking away. But keep in mind he appears to be doing it not because he wants to (as he has said already) but something he feels like he has to do in order to provide for you guys.
If you feel like it is something that you guys can get through I would suggest "laying off" on him for a bit. He's clearly exhausted. I'm assuming based on what you have said this is part of the journey not the final destination. Either way you both need to go to therapy to help communicate how you both are feeling.
