Am I wrong? I have been in a relationship for the past 3 years with a guy 8 years older. I have a child with Autism from a previous 10 year relationship. We lived together for about two years but we couldn’t afford the rent. I usually work tax season and with employment agencies. He does club promoting and tries to set up his own events. The type of work he does doesn’t make much money and he will not seek regular employment because he owes lots of child support. I felt like I was always paying for everything and giving him money. His line is always -I’m gonna make money this week or I’m waiting to see how much I’m gonna make at the show. Things got to where we ended up living in a shelter with my son. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year. I waited for my son to finish school and then I moved to another state to be with my mom. Now I feel free. I feel like I can focus on my son and doing what I want to do as far as building a career and just experiencing things without having to worry about money and paying someone else’s way. When I left I did not break up with him. Now he wants me to come back so we can live together again. My son is in a good school and my mom is steal dealing with breast cancer and I have told him more than once that I’m not coming back. The city we lived in was too expensive and I feel no security with him. I feel like if we lived together again we would always be broke and my life would be going nowhere. It feels good to just worry about my son. Am I wrong and what should I do?
No. You are right to do what you did. Keep your eyes on the future. 🙂
Now, you have to focus on dating men who are good people with good character, and not dead beats. 😉
