Question: Need some relationship advice?

(Posted by: Stephaniee on 2010-03-06 16:24:25)

My boyfriend and I have been living together for two years, everything is going well, we love each other very much and are very happy together. Here's the thing, he hasn't been able to keep a really good job, so his parents stepped in and offered to help... meaning he would have to move back to his hometown and pretty much be under their rule. He's 21 years old btw. He needs the help, because they've offered to help him pay for school, and he got a really good job in town. This changes things though... Our relationship isn't going to be the same though. I guess it's for the better, but I just think he could have worked out a solution at home with me. I know we could have done something. Any suggestions?

He's obviously still too immature to step up and be a man about it, and ran back to mommy and daddy. some guys refuse to take the kind of help, they like doing it on their own because it makes you feel like you do something for what you get. my suggestion? just try and keep your relationship at the state it is right now, if its going to be long distance get used to spending a lot of money just to talk and see eachother.

He's 21 and is choosing to go back and live with his parents instead of trying to take care of himself? This is not good. I'm 22 and I've struggled and went through having my power shut off, but unless I was quite literally living on the streets, I wouldn't move back in with my parents. He's going to need to learn really fast that if he is going to be an adult and have adult relationships, he can't have his mommy and daddy taking care of him. I understand your dilemma but short of leaving him, I don't know what else you can do to get out of this situation. Guys like that can't be changed - not with any kind of words anyway.

I think you relationship can survive anything if you really love eachother. Just keep contact and tell him you are here when he can come back.
