I was suppose to see my boyfriend on valentines day it was our first one together and he ruined it by cancelling on me said he has no money and apparently he forgot to tell me who forgets that they've got no money all he's got me for valentines day is just a card nothing else and I've bought him a present. I was suppose to be going to his today but his mum said I couldn't go down and he has refused to come to mine because he said he would be too tired after work (he's a cleaner and works from 6am to 10am) he is coming down at the weekend because he gets money today and am still only getting a card for valentines day nothing else no chocolates no flowers nothing really feel like just cancelling the weekend and flogging him and his present on eBay. AIBU and ungrateful or is he just a massive tit that I can do without this isn't the first time he's cancelled a date but he normally says he will come down a different day to make up for it.

He is a disaster. Best of luck tomorrow.

I think his mum knows how lazy he is and that if she let girlfriends stay he would never, ever leave the house'. Making him go to his girlfriends is her way of getting five minutes peace!!

Next time take a minute to stop and think about what kind of man you are considering dating. This one should have been a non starter.

TheStoic · 16/02/2017 23:59

thestoic I'm angry at the way I'm being treated by him would you be happy to be treated like shit messed around and spend valentines day on your own after someone cancelled on you or would it all make you anary too.

Of course I wouldn't be angry. I'd accept he clearly was not what I was looking for in a man, and I'd move on. Why on earth are you wasting so much emotion on someone you barely know?

Haha lmao DonaldStott glad that made you snort for the first time in your life.

Lucked thank you I will let you everyone know how it goes tomorrow but by this time tomorrow I will be happy and free of the waste of space and his mum will have to put up with him for probably the rest of his life kind of feel sorry for her in all honesty. I don't think there will be a next time think am just going to stay on my own now.

I won't be wasting any more time on him.

Good to hear. Starting now, hopefully. He's not worth even one minute of angst.

You come across as likeable and as others have said, you are quite funny as well. Despite several insults, I respect the way you haven't responded in kind. As others have said, you can do better than this. Get rid asap.

Peanutandphoenix · 18/02/2017 11:49

user1486924355 awww thank you hun that's nice of you to say. Thank you you will always get people on here who are ready to insult you when all your asking for is advice and help but I just hold my head up high and just ignore them that's better than stooping to their level. I can do a lot better than him and I will find someone one day. I have got rid of him now he got given his marching orders yesterday.
