I need real advice please!

So, I have been in a relationship for almost 3.5 years. My boyfriend is 26 and lives about a 10 min walk from me so we used to hangout almost everyday. My boyfriend doesn’t work, has no education, still lives at home, does not have a car or drivers license, he never takes me out anywhere (never has) besides to eat and even that I have to plan! He is also very immature, lazy and full of excuses. I am so unhappy and have given him chance after chance to change but he always has an excuse. He says I need to help him make a resume because he doesn’t know how? He is 26 years old!!! I have to add, he is nice to me and hasn’t cheated (as far as I’m concerned). I am just looking for advice, should I leave this relationship or wait around for him? If you have the time, I would love for you to go into detail! I am so lost and no one I know has been in this situation. Thank you in advance! 🙂

I was in a similar situation yrs ago with my high school sweetheart, except I was the loser bf and not the responsible one. She eventually left me becuz she knew it would never work and she was right, we were in two totally different places and headed in opposite directions in life. Honestly her leaving me was a good thing for both of us, especially her. She moved on with her life, continuing her education and pursuing a career. I was of course devastated but it taught me a lesson; two people cannot coexist in a relationship if they r living basically separate lives. If u and ur bf r not seeing eye to eye on important issues like careers, long term goals, etc. then it may b time to hang it up. Let him know exactly how ur feeling and tell him u’ve been considering leaving him becuz he’s not the person u need him to b. His response to that will tell u a lot about what decision u need to make. Hope everything works out for u and good luck 😊
