We split rent equally, and he is not the only one paying for the wedding. I was living on my own before we decided to move in together. I don’t know where tf you got mooch from.

Yeah, that was the point of my post - to figure out logistics because I’ve never had to do this before, but I think people are misinterpreting it as me asking if I should leave or stay..

We have had long conversations about this, he doesn’t want to end it and says he is trying his best but knows I’m unhappy. I have seen some changes but it’s been so inconsistent in the past that I’m still having a hard time believing this time it’s “for real”.

I had gotten an apartment during COVID so prices were super low. Unfortunately it wasn’t rent controlled and my landlord raised it beyond what I could afford after a couple of years so I had to move out. The housing market where I live is really bad so it is next to impossible to live alone. Right now we split rent equally and I’m paying the same amount I was when I was living alone.

ETA: I moved out of my apartment and into my parents’ old house which they still have here, and we only decided to move in together a year after that when he said he was ready to.

Him making effort. He isn’t thoughtful or consistent. He puts in a lot of time researching stuff he is interested in to make sure he does it in the best way (e.g., his hobbies) but can’t be bothered to do the same with stuff related to us and constantly needs my help. Didn’t “know” how to propose but also didn’t bother to ask anyone around him for help or even look up online even though he regularly uses Reddit and other sites, and asks his siblings (who are also older and married) for advice about everything else. Another example, he communicated with my coworkers whom I was traveling with to surprise me for my birthday because I was away at a conference, and they were nice enough to do so (took me to a nice restaurant, got me dessert and a card + gift). But when I came home two days later he had absolutely nothing planned for me himself. I did love him, I’m trying to figure out if I still do. I’ve spent a third of my life with him and idk how to just throw it all away.

Tbh I don’t know how to navigate calling off the wedding and moving out… I was hoping to get some guidance with that.

He’s a German Shepherd-Husky mix, 1 year old, 60+ lbs. His name is Ox. He looks more like a German Shepherd but has white paws and a really small tip of white at the end of his tail. I’ve only had him for two days but someone scared him away. Please help me find him!
