Q: I Need Help With My Boyfriend!!
asked by: rhiannon on October 18th, 2005

I have been with my boyfriend for over a year now, and it's not really going where I want it to! I have had a crush on him since the 7th grade (we are 22 and 23) and our realationship is not the best I don't think. Anyway, we live together with his mom so he can help her pay the bills. He works 50 hours a week in the coal mines, and I don't have a job because right now my car needs a new transmission. When he comes home from work, he goes straight to the shower and to the table to eat dinner. And thats all I see of him. He won't go anywhere or do anything with me. I have to beg him to take me to my parent's house. He won't take me to the grocery store, wal-mart, or anything. Everyday when he gets home he kicks me out of our room just so he can look at porn. He is also a computer geek. He would rather stay on the computer until he goes to bed than talk to me. I really don't want to give up just yet because I have liked him for so long. Is it worth it????

Love is worth just about anything. I think that the solution to your problem would be for the two of you to get out of his momma's house. He can still help her pay the bills by sending her money. You two are old enough to live on your own. My husband and I are 19 and 20 and we lived with my aunt for a while before we got our own place. Things change when you live together alone. Do you not mind living with his mother?? Another thing you should do is tell him flat out how you are feeling..And if he doesn't seem to care, tell him you are leaving him, that's sure to get his attention!!


Good luck,
teresa

Nothing is worth the way your boyfriend is treating you. People who love each other does not treat each other that way. If he truely loved you he would want to be with you. He would miss you during the day while he was at work and be excited to see you when he got home from work. My husband and I have been together for 10 years, married only 4 months, but have lived together for about 8 years. We are just as in love with each other now as we were when we first got together. Both os us can't wait to get home every day from work just so we can see each other and be together. We love just being together at home. Doing nothing. Just being together. He would never talk to me or treat me that the way your boyfriend has treated you and I would never dream of treating him that way. I love him too much than to hurt him and he feels the same way about me. He doesn't want to do anything to hurt me or my feelings. It sounds like your boyfriend wants to live at home with his mommy because he's not ready to get out on his own. He's not ready for a real serious relationship. That's fine, but he needs to be honest with you so you can move on with your life the way you see fit. Do not let this man run over you. Stand your ground with him and tell him how your feeling and how he is making you feel when he does some of the things that he does to you. Speak up girl. If things do not change then tell him you are leaving him. If he really wants to be with you he will try to stop you and change his ways towards you. He will see that you are serious about what you are talking about. You have to show him that you mean business and that you're not just talking and threatening to leave him. Good luck to you! Keep us informed on the outcome.

Your relationship is not healthy. If he needs time to unwind after work (shower, eat) fine. But he should make time for you after that, and by not giving you a ride is just selfish and rude.

From what you described, it will not be long til you are not satisfied, probably already you are not, you just have not admitted to yourself. Look inside, see how you really feel. If he is worth it to you, talk to him, demand respect. If he is not...............????? Follow you heart.
