chickpea2011 agony auntHi,

I know you don't have a full time job. Well, time to find one, immediately. I am 38 years myself. My boyfriend is same age, he pays everything, including my car, clothes, food, everything!! We are almost same age, and I cannot believe how our lives are completely different. We go out almost everyday. On weekends we always go to the beach, dinner, or movies. I am not trying to make you feel bad. I am just telling you that you are wasting your life with this man. I get sad just reading your post. This man, he's selfish, don't appreciate you, respect you, love you, or care about you.

Confidence you will start getting back when you leave this man. What's important for you is to keep quiet. Keep doing the things you do, but find a full time job, so you can have enough money to support yourself, and move out. Also, find a full time job, save enough money, also once you move out, you can find a roommate to share rent.

We live life once, you are still in the prime of your life. It's time to make a better life, find a man that truly deserves you, a partner that will love, respect you, help you with bills, household chores, etc.

Good luck

You are being taken advantage of and emotionally abused. This is not a loving, caring relationship made with two equals. You are his maid and he is the master of the house. You need to get out NOW and find someone who will treat you with the respect and kindness you deserve, because you seem like a loving and attentive person. It is only fair that you find the same in a man. You are not insecure at all - you are just picking up on the fact that you are not being treated as an equal or a partner. He does not sound like he loves, respects or cares for you or your needs.

GET OUT OF THIS RELATIONSHIP NOW!
