He is kind, caring and handsome, but he has no financial stability and we totally are different when it comes to parenting and resolving conflict. He is a great guy but I can not decide if it is time to move on. PLEASE HELP.

Hmmm - I can relate to this, except I have been with someone similar for only 6 months, he is ready to step up the commitment and I dont feel in my gut that I would be happy to do so. My boyfriend is funny, handsome, smart, but has no house, no car and no money, as soon as he gets paid his money goes on dvd's, fags and booze. He says he will change and start saving, but I cant see it, afterall, he is nearly 30 and hasnt changed yet!
I am tempted to say either let him go, or maybe seek some councelling. I would come clean with him about how you feel and see how he reacts. If he reacts with anger and is defensive, then give im some time, he may want to take action to stay with you.
I hope this helps.
I am thinking about letting my man go and find someone who can offer me more of what I want.
