Anyone else’s boyfriend not really help them at all?

I do everything for our son (11 months old) and my boyfriend basically does nothing but work. He works a hard job and usually 6 days a week but still he doesn’t change any diapers ever anymore. He never feeds our son, help put him to bed, give him a bath, dress him, play with him, clean up his toys or high chair. The only thing around the apartment he does is take out the trash and occasionally cook. I do everything else. I work a very small part time job(4 hours a week) so it doesn’t take up much of my time so I’m spending 24/7 taking care of our son alone. I get so lonely here at our apartment with just me and our son. My boyfriend never wants to watch our son alone and spend one on one time with him. It’s starting to make me feel bad for our son because his father should want to spend more time with him. He’ll only hold him for a few minutes and he literally never plays with him like gets down on the floor with his toys and plays with him. I want them to bond more and it makes me sad that my boyfriend doesn’t seem affected by it. He has such a busy schedule because besides work he also does MMA training a lot. He needs to prioritize spending time with our son and honestly I need breaks which he rarely gives me. He thinks because he works that’s him doing his part but being a parent is soo much more than that. He spends more time per week training than he does with his son :/ he says he gets overstimulated when he watches our son but that’s how it is sometimes with a baby I’m overstimulated constantly. He thinks our son likes me better and that he doesn’t understand our son like I do. But I told him that’s why he needs to spend more time with him then he’ll understand him more.
