Hey April,
So my boyfriend and I have been going out for 3 months strong so far. He’s 21 and I’m 18. Before we used to talk on and off since 2013. We tried dating before but it didn’t work out because we couldn’t see each other often, my mom didn’t like him for me and he was a thug basically. When we finally got together we broke up because he said that he really likes me but the way he’s living he doesn’t want me to get hurt and that’s the only life he knows that can support him and his mom. (He’s the main caregiver in the house. He pays the bills, takes care of his mom everything.) I was like fuck it than and focused on finishing school and getting into college and continue living my life. Even though we wasn’t together we would still talk once a blue moon and when we did see each other the flirting we would do is crazy. He made a dumb choice and now he’s incarcerated. We got back together while he’s in there. We both don’t know how long he will be in there for. So far I’ve been holding him down but am I stupid too? Should I just let him be and live my life? Especially with me going to college, I know I could find another boy, but with him it’s i don’t know. He likes all my flaws and he has seen me at my worst a bunch of times and still wants to be with me. What do you think I should do?
~TLove
