I have been with my current bf for 6yrs however within one of those yrs i had left em twice. I do love him dearly but im pretty sure im not no where close to being in love w/em like b4. I have confronted em on numberous occasions regarding issues that keep us apart. examples are the children we have are mine and he points out this is my tv and i pay bills around here so i watch whatever i wana watch when i cum home from work. we dont sleep together anymore, this has been an issue for a yr or so now. hes on the couch. i make all attempts to try and make it work, lil love notes, i luv u alot, lipstick on mirror, try watch tv w/em,cards, etc. I recieve nothing except i pay bills like thats suppose to be a sign of love??? I have one 10yo son w/heart disease and currently a child of 4yo we both agreed i could stay home w cuz its my last baby. im also taking courses online for college degree cuz having kids n single mom i have no choice to rush to them. its all about money and materials to em, and its bout the lil things in life to me. i do pay for everything we need around house and for the food but still am not involved or allowed to be involved w/bills but cont. to get em thrown in my face!! Im xtremely close to giving up just lil scared bout bn out on my own again!!

tennisstar88 agony auntYou think this is love? There is no love left! It left a long time ago.

You two have been together 6 years, in which you have left him twice, don't sleep in the same bed anymore, in which I'm guessing there is no sex. The bills, you pay all of them? What does he pay? It sounds like the only reason he's keeping you around is to pay bills. In which you're getting nothing in return from him, so why are you staying in this relationship? Because you love him? Well hate to break it to you but he doesn't appear to love you back.

That is difficult. I suggest you pick up a part time job if you have someone that can sit with your daughter a few times a week. You should start to contribute so that he no longer has that upper hand.
