My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years. He has helped me move from my home, back to my college, back to my home, and into a new house (all within these last two years- you know, normal stuff). Well, he has thrown a bitch fit every time I move (which again, is during normal periods of time such as summer break) and always makes sure to know that he hates moving ****. My family helps too so it isn't just him doing all the work. Since we're always together and he stays with me a lot, I don't see how spending a day moving things once a year or so is even a big deal. ANYWAYS, once I graduated I got my own place. He saw how much I struggled keeping that place because rent is so high here and I lived alone (could NOT find a roommate, it was crazy!). I found a wonderful place that was much cheaper, so I told my landlord and we found new tenants for my current place. This has been in the works for a month, everything was great. I paid my security deposit, packed all my house up and was ready to move whenever I got the call from the new landlord saying that I can't move in because they changed their mind about renting it. WHOA. This all happened YESTERDAY and I was supposed to move in today. Keep in my mind my current place is already rented and the new tenants will be here Monday. Now, I could just crash at my parents place for a couple days, right? Nope. My mom and I have had some major issues due to her kicking me out of the house the day I graduated since I was officially an adult even though I only had a pre-med bachelors degree and was going to medical school in a year (that's a whole other story, but enough for you to see the problem). Now, my boyfriend knows the issues with my mom and all the craziness that has happened over the last 6 months with my living arrangements. When this last thing happened, I crumbled and my mom took me in immediately (she has her moments and likes to play the knight in shining armor sometimes, plus she really had no choice). I'm moving home tomorrow, but got a text from my boyfriend saying "You know I have band practice tomorrow, so we have to do it really early." This pisses me off for multiple reasons: A) he has known for a month that I would be moving on these dates, even if I'm not going to the same place now, B) he knows this is an overly stressful time for me, and C) his band is only for fun and no gigs are even on the books, so I don't see why I am the one that has to abide by HIS schedule. Right? I haven't said anything to him and we probably will be finished well before he needs to go to practice, but still. That day should have been set aside awhile ago in my opinion.

Looking at the big picture and not all the incidentals, I"m sorry to say but your boyfriend is not very supportive. It doesn't matter where you were moving or how often you moved (as long as it wasn't due to your reckless irresponsibility). The fact still stands that he is supposed to be your rock. His love for you should out weigh band practice, especially with a band that doesn't exactly pack Madison Square Garden (or the local pub for that matter). Sit down and have a talk with him and figure out where he stands... or else he can find somewhere else to sleep besides your bed he was unwilling to move.
