I dont feel like I can offer anything to dp. He's amazing and I really do adore him, but I'm finding it more and more obvious I'm a mess, rely on him heavily and cannot give him anything in return.
I dont know how to explain without giving THE LONGEST OP EVER!! but basically I'm lone parent and have been with dp 7 months..during this time we have been out on 1 date. I dont have a very good support network and ds's dad is not involved so dp has to come round and stay in every time. He comes round 2-4 nights a week. The L word has been said and him and ds are besotted with each other.(another thing that freaks me out)
I work part time but and do live hand to mouth and everything he suggests I can never afford to do. He is paying for us to all go on holiday in Oct. (I am taking spending money and try not to scrounge)
I am a terrible cook and he is a head chef so usually takes over and cooks every time as its awful otherwise.
I just feel more and more worthless the more time goes on. Is there anything I can do? I feel like its unhealthy.
Urghh I dont like feeling like this
