A female Australia age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I don't think I'm happy in my relationship. The feeling comes and passes but ultimately I just don't feel emotionally satisfied anymore.

I've been with my boyfriend for just over a year and half, we used to be engaged but I found him looking at naked pictures of a girl we both know from her social networking site. I ended the engagement right there and then and said we needed to work on our relationship before we even thought of marriage again.

It seems like he just doesn't really care anymore. He stays up all night and sleeps all day, and when he is awake he's either on the xbox or talking to friends on Skype. He can't get a job right now as he moved countries with me last year and his visa is still getting worked out. Part of me thinks he's only sticking around for a green card because he hated his family so much.

He doesn't understand why I'm unhappy a lot of the time and it's usually down to his attitude. He snaps at me or gives me attitude for absolutely no reason but always denies it. He doesn't accept responsibility for anything and I end up having to act like the adult for everything. I have so much responsibility on my shoulders and I'd be thankful if just once he said 'don't worry, I'll take care of it' but the odd few times he's done that in the past he's just messed it up because he doesn't really care about anything.

At the end of the day I'm beginning to see personality clashes. I don't know whether it's worth working on anymore. I try and try and he just doesn't care.

You already know the outcome, so why do it?

Honey, you know he's bad for you. Accept you deserve better. I know it's easier said than done, your heart will get in the way. You won't be happy in this relationship- It's just not meant to be. Time for you to use your brain, and do something that's good for you. Find a true man who is a keeper.

The pool is teeming with a plethora of fish ;) Think about people who end their 10-11 years of marriage. I understand it's not easy to break the bond and move on but this relationship anticipate a disastrous future. Face the truth- This is not Love and his feelings are not true for you. You really wanna spend the rest of your life struggling with a bad relationship?

Move on and one day you'll look back and realize how positive and beautiful your life is :)

Ciar agony auntYou've done all you can. Time to move on. If you're going to have the responsibilities of a single person you might as well be single.

He can sort himself out on his own time.
