My boyfriend and I have been dating for two years and living together for 1 of them. When we met he was an over the rode truck driver. He quit that and has been home the last year. He is very unhappy now and wants to go back out on the rode. He says it has nothing to do with me and our relationship is not changing, just his job. I tell him that I would end the relationship because I want someone who is home more them every two weeks for a weekend. I want someone home at night when I get home from work, someone to do things with on the weekends, and so on. He tells me I met him as a driver and that I should stand by him and let him go back over the rode. I am just having a very hard time with this. The catcher of it all is he also feels that when he goes back over the rode he doesn't have to contribute to the house anymore. I disagree with that also because he will be coming home to this house on those weekends and this is his address. So do I stick by him or say good bye?

This is the problem with living with someone. You can't get a committment from them. Sounds like he wants to move on, or he would be willing to help you with the expenses of your home. If he didn't help with the bills, I sure wouldn't let him park his big hindend at my house. If he is wanting to get back into driving, it sounds like he wants to get back to his old lifestyle before you met him. I'd think long and hard before I would committ myself to him. Because he is not wanting a committment from you. Good luck to you.

You knew who and what he was when you got together. He's a trucker. You want him to be something different, and every single time women try to morph a guy into something other than what he really is, they end up making themselves and the guy miserable.
Let him go.

I was going to tell you if you love him you should stand by him, until I got to the part where you say he doesnt want to contribute to the house anymore! get rid of the jerk, the sooner the better!

He should go back on the road and you should get rid of him. He does not know want he wants. Everyone has to 'pay the rent' no matter how oftne they go home!

Forget him. You both want different things and it would be to hard for both of you.

you both need to move on, you won't be happy with someone who is gone and he won't be happy unless he is doing what he loves, why should you both be miserable, find someone who will make you happy and is happy to be with you.
