Have name changed.
For the past year my dp seems to have lost his self respect. He doesn't look after his personal hygiene (wont wash for days), health (teeth rotting so badly they are crumbling) and makes no effort in any area of his life anymore. He's completely different from the man I met who was funny, ambitious and handsome.
Ive tried my best to encourage him with his hobbies but all he wants to do now is eat and play x box. On his days off he spends all day playing games.
Hes almost always ill and always complains about his joints as hes become so unhealthy and now obese. Ive just had a baby (our first) and started exercising and have been suggesting that it would be nice if he joined me but he refuses.
He complains about his job and always talks about how he wants a new job, so while dd slept I wrote up a new cv for him but he wasn't even interested in looking at it. Ive been applying to jobs in the area he wants to get into but he wont even get back to potential employers.
I dont know what to do, how would you approach this?
I dont think I even love him anymore. Please tell me there's a chance he can turn things around. He says he's not depressed, he just wants to do what he likes.
Am I wrong to feel like this? I feel guilty and a bit shallow but if he carries on it will set an awful example to dd.
