Then there's the fact that he always insists on watching movies in French (dubbed from English) - his first language. I wouldn't have a problem with this, except they're the most boring things I've ever come across. I like fantasy/science fiction/action, and he thinks they're the stupidest things ever. If we go to see a movie, I end up squirming in my seat, waiting for it to end. He also doesn't like the fact that I have a sweet tooth (he will try to take treats away from me sometimes so I can't eat them, and warns me that I will become obese (I'm 5'3 and weigh 123 pounds). Finally, there's the fact that we will be moving in about five months, and he doesn't know where we'll be. He is leaving the military, and has no real plans, just options. He's even wondering if he should go on welfare. He says he never wants to marry, have any kids or live in a real house.Should I leave him or stick with it and hope it gets better?

I was thinking that it could work out up until I read this:
"He is leaving the military, and has no real plans, just options. He's even wondering if he should go on welfare. He says he never wants to marry, have any kids or live in a real house."
Okay, so we have a man who has no real ambition in life and no desire to commit to a woman permanently. Moving in with him with no financial backdrop does not sound like a good idea to me. Also, the way you speak about him implies your love for him is waning and you're wondering if it's worth investing more time and effort into this.
My opinion? No, it's not worth it. He is not a responsible adult. He doesn't want any responsibility. Does what you've written sound like the description of a guy you want?
