Lack of Commitment...Do I call it a day or is there another solution?

Tagged as: Dating, Troubled relationships<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (19 April 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 19 April 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

I have been together with my boyfriend/partner for 6 years. We have tried living together - I say tried - because he only ever had the minimal amount of clothing/belongings there. He never changed his postal address and kept most of his stuff at his home (his mum's house).

We split up for a bit as I was fed up with the relationship not moving forwards; there was no commitment. We got back together but things are still the same - its more a case of him lodging here; there is no shared responsibility/commitment at all. When I try and discuss it he just says he 'wants happy times' and says he cant understand why we havent had smooth sailing through our relationship and therefore isnt read to commit.

Do I call it a day or is there another solution?

(I am 43 and he is 39 - so no teenage heart-throbs!)

So_Very_Confused agony auntif you want more than he is willing to give you, after 6 years I think you have done all you can do... if he is not willing to move in and live together fully or make a permanent commitment to you which is what you want then it's time to cut and run.
