Stephen wants me to pay him back what he has spent on us from his money this week so he can take classes to get his drivers license back. Because that was what the money is for. My sister gets guys to do everything for her I can't get my braces to buy me a gift for any occasion. I pay all the bills every month and I always do. He never bought me anything. I want to move out so bad. His mother took my kids away and he does work for them at their houses. And doesn't get a job. I am so done!

I will never forget my last husband refusing to let me go to the dentist because he had just gone so we didn't have the money. HOWEVER, he had no problem buying a $600 dollar ring for my granddaughter, a 68 MGB that she was too young to drive, clothes, and trips to go diving and skiing. I know EXACTLY how angry you must be feeling inside. Pmessage me if you ever want to talk. Hugs GB

umm...so if you pay all the bills, and he doesn't have a job, then tell him NO! I'm curious though how does he have "his money" if he doesn't work? Whatever money he spent on "the household" telling you'll consider it payment towards the bills.

If you're this unhappy there, then move on, get out....why would you stay in a situation like this when your so miserable?? A loser boyfriend is not worth all of this....

I'm so sorry you're hurting, wings. I have to agree with OCP - get rid of him. He's a loser. He's hurting you and I'm not clear on the situation with your children, but if his mother has them then there's much more to that story. Did you ever ask yourself WHY you are staying with him? Is it because you're afraid you won't find anyone else? Is it because you feel like he has his good moments, too? It all sounds bad, wings. I'm sorry, but you need to get out and get going on your own. You're already supporting him - you need to take care of you. Big hugs. xoxo

I think all of us as women need to say every day we are worth it and we love ourselves first then our kids then or other half. If we don't love our self first nothing else will work out. We need to take care of ourselves to make us a better person. He doesn't even deserve you. If it is not equal why bother with that relationship. For example I clean the house inside and my mate cleans the outside and takes care of outside stuff. should be 50/50 in any relationship if it is not it is not fair. Sure no relationship is perfect but at least there can be mostly 50/50. I hope you make the right decision based on yourself and your needs and out of love for yourself first.

I'm thinking about going to the beach without him in a few days looking for a place and only paying rent one last time and putting my 30 day notice with the landlord and I've looked on the internet I want to do it without him knowing.
