A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Ok, I really need some help. I have been with my boyfriend for 2 years now.I put up with alot like the fact that I havent met his parents who he says are racist whom he still lives with and other things.The big problem is I keep caughting him in lies. Most of them are small but this last one was major. This past November he told me he was ready to get engaged and i felt the same so he said that it was coming soon like a month or so.He has a good job and he told me he had been saving money. We also decided we would be moving in right after. Which was fine I was not in a rush.So I was being pacient. He has a good job so I felt comfortable.Despite the fact that my friends and family say that he is stringing me along. So in March I ask him whats the deal??He knows what type of ring I want my ring size etc. He says he has the ring and hes waiting for the right time he says.Two weeks ago he said he had made a mistake with the size and changed the type of stone etc. and I would have it soon.Well two days ago after me asking him about it he says that it was all a lie that he hadnt bought a ring or anything. He also told he didnt have hardly any money saved up. So my question is, is this too big of a deal?? Should I leave?? Am I overeacting???HELP!!!

My-ex boyfrend treated me the same way. he kept postponing the engagement with all sorts of excuses. he just didnt have the guts to tell it to my face. he was stringing me along. then i found out he was with another girl at the same time.

ur instincts are telling u something is not rite , that should be ur answer rite there. he's the one with the problems. not you. stop analysing.

leave him, pronto! dont waste ur time with someone who doesnt care about you.
