I just broke up with my boyfriend of less than a year and I want to know if you think i did the right thing or should i have waited a while longer. I am 30 and he is 32, we met last year and things were fine until Jan. when he called me and asked if he could stay at my house for a few days because his roommate (he wasn't a roommate but a guy he was just staying with) was in jail. I said ok and let him stay, but within 2 days he told me that his job was going out of business and he was now unemployed (actually he quit this job). So i figured he just needed a lil time to get on his feet, so i tried to be there for him. I told him he needed to find a job and a place to live because he couldn't move in with me, but he could stay the night on occasion. That was January and he is still jobless and when not at my house he sleeps in his car, he says he's looking for a job but there aren't any and now i'm just fed up, i work fulltime and i pay for everything and im tired of it, so i left him.

Well I don't mean to hurt your feelings, but the mistake you made was letting him move in your house in the first place. If you want to keep someone, don't let them move in before you get married; just take this as a lesson learned. And if you love him I really hope that he will come back to you if that's what you want. I am sorry that your feeling this way! luckyjaden@yahoo.com

I personally think you did the right thing. We guys can be a lazy bunch, especially if we think we can leech off someone else. Believe me, I know. You apparently gave this guy more chances than he deserved. If he wanted to get his act together, he would have. The job market may not be great, but there are plenty of government services that can help, especially if you have a car, and are willing to work. Don't mope over it, honey. Just move on. You'll be better off.

He was a lazy lieing bumb. I think u did the right thing. He can't get a job or his own place. Plus he has no money. U treid to hang in there but he still didn't do what he needed to do so u did what u needed to do. Why let him hold u back in life. U working hard but he isn't. That's not fair. So, yes u did the right thing.

Sounds like you did the right thing. In the end, only you can decide if you want to be with him or not. Just a word of advice...my boyfriend and I (of 2 years) just broke up and I've never been so happy. Once you break up, you see all the bad things that you were once blind to.
