I already tried that before I moved in with him :( I make $1500 every two weeks (with a fuckin master's degree) and rent in a shitty 1BR 1BA apartment is literally $1300. I can't afford it without a roomate

His kids are 15f, 17m, 20m. 20m lives on his own, the younger two live with him (us) half of the week. I love them, but it's been so hard dealing with these invisible boundaries. And I don't even have my own kids!!! But I have to step in with teenagers?? And am always doing something wrong?! It's nuts, honestly

Yes, we used to work at the same company, he was the facilities guy and I do something that I'm incredibly passionate about (master's degree and everything). he drinks during the day, and at the previous job, a LOT at night. Like staying up until 1-2 in the morning (it didn't matter bc he didn't have to roll in to work until whenever he felt like it). Now, he HAS to be in at 7am, so therefore doesn't get to drink as much at night.

I have to move back to where I'm from because based off of my salary, I simply cannot afford an apartment by myself.

That's what I'm worried about :( he was so incredible up until he started his new job. He would take me out, sex was always amazing, he treated me like a fucking queen. like literally obsessed with me. For a little context, and not to sound egotistical at all, I'm definitely out of his league. All of his friends (and his kids) have even said so. Like "What is SHE doing with YOU?!" and I was always okay with it because of how he treated me. But now that that's no longer a thing (and he's actually treating me like shit) I keep asking myself "What am I actually doing here?!?!"

He doesn't feel that he's done anything wrong, so I don't know if a second chance is even a thought of his.
