Exactly what it says. My boyfriend has been in the same job since leaving uni 12 or so years ago. He claims he has no transferrable skills to apply somewhere else, which is complete rubbish.
Until we moved together a year ago, he lived with his mother. He doesn't want to start saving for a house because he will inherit his mothers anyway. I myself am a university drop out, 3 years younger, from a different country and more successful already with good earning potential. He also says we cannot get married because we can't afford it and can't have a baby for the same reason. He says he wants to but cannot afford it. When I pulled him up on it he said that he didn't think a cheap wedding was what I wanted. They are likely to be excuses I presume as we are both in our 30ies.
I cannot understand how someone does not want to better themselves in life and also whether those are acceptable grounds to just move on with my life and let this relationship go as much as we generally rub along really well.
