DP of seven years. Loooong story, we lived together for a while but he got his house back from his ex and moved back. Sounds ridiculous I know but I've gone along with it.
Today I'm having some real cash flow problems and am left with very little money for the rest of the month. When he finds this out this morning, he can't get away quick enough. No asking if he can help, no advice, nothing.
I know he's not obligated to help me but it's so hurtful that he fucking scarpered when the chips are down.

Life's too short to spend with people who don't make you feel like a good strong happy person.

Life is too short to spend with someone who counts every penny and begrudges you a tin of soup!

Mean with money, mean with love is a saying for a reason.

Was it costing you money to have him stay or did he cover the costs?

What an awful man.

shooshoopoopoo · 12/04/2018 19:42

I wouldn't be with this man. He is mean and didn't offer any money or support you with your tooth is because he doesn't care about you. I really wouldn't make any effort to see him. Watch how he reacts. He will either step up or disappear.

It makes me even sadder to know that he wouldn't fight to keep the relationship.
He has his pile of bricks and he's happy

Bloody Sadand Angryon your behalf tbh Thanks

You're not chucking away 7 years you're giving yourself the opportunity of the next 7 bring happy.

Get out now and save yourself more pain. Mean is one of the worst faults and it's usually not just with money. Best of luck in the future

Dont waste anymore of your time on the weasle.

C0untDucku1a · 12/04/2018 21:52

Youre not throwing away 7 years. Youre deciding not to waste 7 more.

Out of curiosity, how did he get the house back from
His ex wife? Where is she now?

ICESTAR · 13/04/2018 11:17

Why are you with this berk?? What does he bring to your life? I hope you ltb. He sounds deplorable.

ICESTAR · 13/04/2018 11:18

Look up sunken costs fallacy. That will help with the 7 years part Flowers
