So I have a friend who's been seeing this guy for a year. They moved in together after they'd being dating for less than a month because he was laid off and he needed somewhere to stay and they cared about each other .....
Anyhoo, dude eventually got another job (great paying one) and all seemed well then she started complaining about a few things specifically, a penchant for packing his suitcase at the last minute and then informing her literally five minutes before heading for the door that he's spending the weekend with his boys watching the play offs or world series or something (he's Bahamian). I tried to tell her as gently as possible that this **** isn't normal but she put up with it.
Finally, things went south a few days ago when he waited for her to fall asleep, snuck out of the house and sent a text message 10 mins later saying he's spending the night outside. No explanation as to where..... Who lives the comfort of a warm woman in a warm bed at 1 am in the morning to go chill with the boys??????
My friend packed his bags and set it outside for him right nice and told him to move in with his boys since he loves spending so much time with them.
So my question is - this isn't normal, right? Because dude is back and trying to convince her she is insane, overreacting and behaving totally crazy....
Is it normal for a man to pack his bag and tell you 5 minutes before heading out that he's going to chill with the boys for 2 nights??? And keep on doing it after you've told him repeatedly how upsetting you find this? And you're supposed to be in a committed relationship together?
