I guess the possible mental condition and momma drama should be the red flags here but the thing that bothered me most was when you said: "I always get on him about getting a job, so he definitely knows whats up." Trust me, you do not want a grown man that you have to get on about getting a job. Every woman I know in this situation is miserable and stressed out. You will be the breadwinner, I think you can count on that. All that sad if you love him and he loves you, it's cool, just go in eyes wide open and don't think he's gonna all of a sudden earn a bachelor's, and MBA, and be "taking care of you," not going to happen.
This is so true! I have an ex-boyfriend who when I first saw him at work, he seemed not to want to be there. I later found out that he had another job, so I thought maybe he was just tired. He did tell me that he was aspiring to be a lawyer and studying for the LSAT. After that, he was on and off about having a job. I know for our first anniversary, I bought him a suit so that he would get a job and go to church. He did not like the suit. I had to buy him a video game as consolation. He loved that! Anyway, he scored very low on the LSAT and ended up having his mom pay an enormous amount of money for him to go to law school. He graduated law school in 2008, has never had a law job, and spends his days and nights gambling at the casino!!!!!! The kicker is he thought I was going to marry him, saying that he would be at the casino most of the time and that as long as I didn't ***** about him going to the casino, we would get along fine.
I am flabberghasted at his whole story and am embarrassed about having ever been fooled by him!
