New boyfriends seems really entitled?

[Sasa112]

Met a guy online a few months ago. He seemed really lovely and nice.

He is doing a masters at uni.

Recently he has been complaining so much about having to work through the masters.ike he's the only person to have ever had to do it
He really thinks he shouldn't have to work whilst doing it and it's a massive disadvantage

He's really stressed the moment and says he'll be better in a relationship after it's done

He blames his ex gf for the situation he is o. Because he says she said she would support him through this course and help with all bills and rent whilst he did it and he wouldn't have to worry about a job until it was finished

Am I being unreasonable to think he is asking too much? And is just really miserable And entitled?

I've done a part time Masters whilst working full time, it is graft. However, that was my personal choice and not anybody else's problem to fix. I didn't ask my partner of 7 years to financially support me, I continued to be the higher earner throughout this period. I 100% wouldn't accept this behaviour from someone I had only just started to date, it is not good starting grounds for a healthy relationship. He sounds entitled and whingey to be honest. As previous posters said he won't be any different after this stressful period has finished, what youre getting now is who he is. Don't keep persevering because of the potential for it to be better after his studies. It won't be.

@Sasa112 is he expecting you to pay his bills??? hint, hint, hint!! tell him to f off!!!

Are you sure that the Ex promised to help him out financially or is that what he wants you to think. Maybe that is the reason that she is an ex.

Dump.

Depends on the situation. When I was doing my masters, I couldn't work. It was a condensed two-year programme, two weeks summer holidays, one week break for Easter and Christmas. I had to do 1000 unpaid placement hours plus coursework and original research project. Before starting my masters I had a discussion with my partner about our financial situation and he agreed that my studies were a priority and he will pick up extra work to make sure we could get by for two years I wasn't earning.
If he pulled out half way through the process and started insisting I went back to work, I would be royally pissed off as I wouldn't be able to complete my masters while working. Had he told me from the beginning that we won't manage financially, I would have had to delay my studies.
So if the situation with your new man is similar, I don't think he sounds entitled.

He is paving the way for you to cough up op....
Ltb.

You are only a few months in to this relationship, so too early to be ‘invested’ - lame joke, but I think you’ve subconsciously asked for permission to leave… granted!
Spring is round the corner, lots to look forward to, with others -not him!

He's warning you now what he's going to be like every time he's in a stressful situation in his life going forwards. He is going to blame someone else and whinge about how it's so unfair.

If that's something you're prepared to tolerate in a partner, crack on. If you'd rather be with someone who accepts that life gets challenging at times and gets on with figuring out how to best navigate those times (rather than complaining and probably putting the burden on you to figure things out because he thinks normal life situations are simply too much for him), ditch this one and keep looking.

Ugh. Unless you want to be saddled with someone who thinks the world owes them a living then walk away from this one. His attitude is really unattractive.

Hes angling after you giving him an easy ride.
Bin him off

I am pretty sure the x girlfriend had a post on here, and after she had given her position and her bf's position, she was told to dump the bugger !
well clearly she did !

So he will only be in a relationship you if you pay him.

Years ago you could do a Masters and nobody expected you to work - but those days are long, long gone. Masters are hard work but not compulsory and lots of people do them with f/t p/t jobs, kids, and lots of other commitments. I would tell him he has the choice to not do it. Bitching about his ex is not a good look.

But it wasn’t pulling out half way through the program and insisting he go back to work? They broke up! There’s a significant difference between a partner committing to do something in a relationship and then going back on that versus a relationship ending?

Totally, I am just saying, we have no context for what happened. Maybe she pulled out of paying having previously promised and they broke up on this basis. Obviously, I was not suggesting she continues to pay after the break up.

He is showing you how he deals with stress. Not well. And he thinks a girlfriend should beat the brunt of it. whats the masters actually in? I did mine while teaching full time.

what does he do for work?
