A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

ok this might be a hard one for anyone to answer.i went out with someone from h a (hells angels) and i was due my tattoo.in the mean time i met some1 else and took my time to dump my h a partner cuz the fort is only down the road where i live.

my new partner is married and although we never meant to fall in love we did.he has 2 girls 18 and 16 and he is 47. he left his wife and i left my bloke so that we could be together and although he hasnt moved in with me lock stock most of his things are here.

the thing is im a freindly person always chatting away to people that i no or people that i dont and i have a loud laugh which draws attention to me instantly.today we went out to a pub and i was my usual self as i always are chatting away and laughin but when we got home my partner said that i was too loud that i was drawing attention to myself etc.i asked him why he felt that way and he said that he was insecure that i wanted everyone to notice me and that if he hung around much longer i would drag him down.

he has been happy with me for the last 6 weeks when he has tried to get out of his marriage and he has been out of it 4 2 weeks. in all that time he hasnt worked and i have supported him off my savings and selling my car (i didnt need it an more)ive given him money to put in his bike ive provided his food and bed and sex ive given given given.

do i walk away now or do i keep riding the bad stuff and see if it can work out i dont no. i would rather go back 2 my other life than have this all the time at least i knew where i belonged then

hlskitten agony auntHeres an idea, why not be on your own for a while?

I dont get why people either have to be with one guy or the other. Its ok to be single!

No i wouldn't be supporting a guy. If he isn't living with you, then make sure until he can support himself, he stays not living with you.

It could work out as long as you dont end up feeling like you're doing all the giving.
