I've posted many threads about my DP, it must be getting on peoples nerves now so this is my last one, I was hoping you lot could help me work out what the problem is. I've always been crap with relationships, If something isnt "perfect" I concentrate on the bad parts...this is what is happening with my DP I think.
I'll try and post a balanced view:
His good points - he's generous towards ANYONE whenever he "does" have money, he will pay for me and my kids wherever we go, always buys us presents etc..
He's funny, quite often has me laughing my head off with his one-liners
He's sociable, gets on well with my family and friends
He's quite good with the kids, taught me eldest dyspraxic son how to ride a 2 wheel bike, often plays football with them etc...
Bad points - Still lives with his mum and is quite heavily reliant on her
Sits at home hungry waiting for his mum to come home from work at 10 to cook him and his dad a meal
Spends money like its water, bought my 6 year old a £160 scalextric set for his birthday which I told him he was too young for (its been played with twice).
Got all his priorities wrong, for instance cant afford to pay his holiday payment but goes to buy another mobile phone instead.
Doesnt have much ambition, "wants" lots of things but seems quite content to keep on wanting.
He's in alot of debt but still buys himself xbox games every month etc
Last time I broke up with him he said "don't I get a say in this?" which made my blood boil for some reason.
There are loads more examples, good and bad but looking at this, is it me or is it him?
