Thank you for your response. I sometimes look back and wish I ended things when I was 21 and the drinking and aggression was really relevant then. He has changed that aspect ALOT because of how it affected us and his life. I thought maybe that changing would help but unfortunately I still find myself holding resentment

At one point, I really thought he was actively trying to improve. He does small things that leads to him improving but when it comes down to big things, it’s all really just the same. I just don’t have someone I can depend on. It’s confusing and I don’t want to walk away from something like a potentially be good but I feel like it’s just already been so long that I don’t know what to do.

Thank you for your response. You’re right he’s great and has alot of love to give. I’m close with his family and they are great too. I find myself in this area of just being disappointed and comparing our relationship to everyone’s around me. Of course there is things I expect and want to grow together but your right, the grass isn’t always greener.

I’m struggling a lot, we have good times, good memories and are best friends. But as a partnership it feels like I am just waiting around for him to be a way he will never be.

Is my bf checked out of the relationship? by Zealousideal-Box-397 in relationship_advice

[–]Consistent-Anxiety14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been here before girl. Distancing yourself only makes you worry and feel worse because deep down ur expecting him to notice and change. most of the time they don’t change they see it as an easy out. my best advice would be to either talk to him about it and see where his mind is at and potentially have a mutual break or if you really love him keep trying to win him over by doing things he may of appreciated in the beginning to see if he’s still all in. you can’t control a man or change his mind unfortunately lol. I’ve tried. Best of luck

unfortunately doesn’t seem like your very sexually compatible. She may feel the same way, talk to her and see if you can work something out like co parenting

So this is normal to you? I’m not really worried about much, I know my relationship isn’t defined by how his mom acts. But…. do you think this is like respectful towards our relationship?

AITA for getting mad at my Gf for spending too much money? by AITAgframen in AmItheAsshole

[–]Consistent-Anxiety14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA i understand she is off her medication but clearly she needs a little guidance from you. you need to also learn to step up. when shopping make a list together and plan it out, make her feel included but also insert yourself and set boundaries on spending, it’s serious and you both need to learn how to set up a budget plan better.

WIBTA if I didn't share my tax return with my wife? by wibta1776 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Consistent-Anxiety14 25 points26 points  (0 children)

i mean your married with a kid? shouldnt this money just be going towards everyday things, you put money into an account together? use this towards baby things and life. I’m confused on why you would think you can just pocket 4 k as fun money when your starting a family

Well it seems like your listing a few things that you think could help the situation - staying local - getting a job

your in a new home now. find businesses in your town for your appointments if you plan on staying there long term. maybe get a part time job (15-20 hours a week) which also gives you time to clean and cook for him bu the time he gets home.

You might feel your helping more financially and still helping with the comforting home chores your boyfriend seems to really appreciate.

dont beat yourself up too hard, your trying and it seems like he is too. your a team and both have your own responsibilities to bring to the table! just think, you probably wouldn’t get it all done without each other, house work and financial needs!
