nottelling2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I am thinking me and my boyfriend may not last. He is mature in some aspects that he has a good education, worked for the same company for almost 10 years, and has a healthy social and work life balance. The thing that bothers me: 1. One day he gave me a gift out of a vending machine which was less than 1 dollar 2. When going to a party to introduce me to his family, when we arrived at the party he disappared for 30 minutes without introducing me to his family. So I sat in a corner until his brother introduced me to the family. 3. He wanted to place a sports team symbol on the back of his head because he is a really dedicated fan. But he has taken me out to great places, cooked me dinner and breakfast, his family likes me, and I know that he loves me alot and will do anything for me. I really love him and can see myself marrying him, but I am thinking that if he is so immature now, what will it be like in the future. Is he too immature or am I just a bore.
rightfield Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 It's really hard to make an absolute determination based upon the information given. What was the gift that he gave you that came from a vending machine? Was it a silly gift, or was it a serious birthday gift? Context? Leaving you high and dry for 30 minutes is more than immature. That's just rude and inconsiderate. He should have had you by his side the entire time, aware that you would feel stranded alone strangers. If he wanted to put a Yankees or Red Sox logo on his head, I dislike him already.

It was out of the blue. For the party: he told me that his neices distracted him. And ya, he was thinking about putting the Yankee logo on his head. I am like minus 50 points. He has bought me serious gifts but I think something is just not right, I am going to discuss it with him over dinner tonight.
antinko Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 The gift sounds quite sweet and spontaneous tbh.
Author nottelling2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Author Posted September 22, 2011 The gift sounds quite sweet and spontaneous tbh. ok. Well I didn't think so. I threw it out. I can ignore the gift thing, but the yankee sign hair cut idea. That is what is throwing me off.
Jack35 Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 As for the gift, I think it was sweet of him. I do that too, and expect my partner to look at the gesture not at the monetary value of what I am giving.

I am assuming you are a guy so I appreciate it.
