Question - (17 February 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 18 February 2010)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Question: Should we take some time apart? My boyfriend is wonderful and I love so much about him, however I also despise a lot about him. I often believe that I am just being petty because I am a little older and I am more "particular". I also believe that I am just noticing that he is just not everything that I need in a man. Examples: he is 24 and I am 27, he is unemployed and I am excelling in a career, i have a home and he has a roommate, I am great with budgets and he doesn't understand the word! I love flower, planned dinners, and back rubs that I do not ask for. I am used to a man that is a MAN. I do not like to tell you what to do, how to do things, a man should be the covenant of the home. I expect him to be a strong supporter and caretaker rather he is collecting unemployment or not.I love him for the great days of hugs, kisses, compassionate moments and wonderful intellectual conversations. I despise the club nights, the groupies, the lack of understanding or compromise. He can tell that I am becoming increasingly irritated as we are in our 4th year and things are becoming strained. I would marry this man because my heart says yes but my mind tells me F my heart because this man can not even run our house hold with out me holding his hand! so I am asking a question aloud To be together or to not that is the question?

This is tough. It sounds like there is a lot of positive. Guys mature slower than girls and. It. Sounds like he has some growing up. I would try and make this work by commuicating ur concerns. Tell him that if he continues to not work that it is a deal breaker.
