Yes, with my ex. There's a point where it's not working and it doesn't make sense to wait forever for changes that will never happen.

I'm not married but I have a boyfriend. At the moment I'm staying with my mom and my boyfriend is in our house. He's struggling with so many things right now and needs to be alone to work out everything. Im not giving up on him just because theres a bump in the road.

@Daria we haven't been, but we don't have the money. I also just don't have the time / energy to plan things because I'm stuck doing most of the childcare and housework- despite the fact that I work full time and he doesn't. And he doesn't plan things - the most he'll do is whine that we don't have plans, or make a suggestion and leave it to me to sort out the details most of the time.
