andie8809 Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 So after five and a half years together and many many mistakes, lies, and heartache (generally due to my selfish desires and clinical depression) I broke up with my boyfriend in early November. We have lived together for probably three and a half years, in various arrangements (during college always with roommates) but in July 2010 we moved into our own studio apartment. I have always been frustrated over the years by my partner's laziness around household chores, his personal appearance, his job prospects, etc., those were just some of the reasons I finally decided to say it's gotta end between us. I might also have a bit of Grass is Greener Syndrome going on since we're both 24 and I just don't feel like he's doing enough for himself career-wise/financially. We had discussed briefly on multiple occasions what will happen regarding our living situation because I don't feel separated or like I can move on with my own life because we share this space. I understand completely his finances aren't so great that he can just up and leave on his own accord, but I'm the only one who can afford to stay in the apartment alone. The other thing is that he won't move back to his parents even short-term although they live here in the same city and would gladly help him out. I'm just getting impatient and he's being especially moody and giving me the silent treatment whenever we're home together and I would rather we make this separation final than drag it out for who knows how many more months. Does anyone have suggestions on how to get him to leave quicker? My friends tell me I'm being too nice about it, but I just don't know how to get him going (since he is freaking lazy as hell).
paleblue Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Does he realize it's really over? I guess you're going to have to get a little more stern about it and tell him point blank he's gotta get out. Makes sense since you can afford the place and he can't.

Yeah...I hear that, my boss actually suggested I don't accept his half of the rent for January...I'm leaning towards that option.
