light2 Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 (edited) So I've been dating this girl for nearly a year and I am at a point where I really don't know what I should do. Some points I would like to make about our relationship. 1. She is religious and I am not. This is probably our biggest hurdle. 2. I have a decent job but I also have a lot of responsibilities to my mother to take care of home. After paying mortgage and bills, and dates, I am left with almost no savings. This just doesn't seem feasible for me to continue this way. (Budgets have been discussed but she likes go on vacations and trips a lot and that is another concern as I've told her that isn't going to be possible. She got very upset after that.) Now I am at point where my fuse is getting shorter and shorter with her. She is very stubborn and though she compromises sometimes, it still feels like 80-90% of time I am doing things for her rather than the other way around. I am approaching that age where all my friends are starting to start families and I just feel like if I end this relationship, it could be 3-4 years or even longer before I will find another (that's how long it took from my last ex to her). I know it's easy to ask, can you see yourself spending the rest of your life with her... and the answer is sometimes. Sometimes i see myself spending my life with her, sometimes i just wanna call it quits. I know this is post is all over the place but I just need some advice..... Edited November 16, 2013 by light2
winny Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 You should not compare your life to that of friends. That will only make you feel pressurized. I would say, if you are not happy then break up. But before that give it a last try... talk to her clearly and tell your concerns and ask her what she thinks... if it can be worked out then great...
