I might leave him...
So for the past couple of days I’ve been thinking about moving to North Carolina because of how affordable and easy it is to get an apartment and job, FYI i do have family over there who is willing to help me get my shit together. I am originally from NY, things in NY are just so hard, for example finding an affordable apartment that is pet friendly, searching for jobs a good job which took me almost 2 years.
I have a bachelors in Public Health, and I finally found something thats in line with my career choice. It doesn’t pay as much but it has a decent amount of benefits.
Now the reason that my title states that I might leave him, I mean my fiancé, we have been together for 6 + years. And there is such a lack of motivation in him that its driving me insane. He doesn’t want to go to school because he doesn’t like school (LIKE HELLOO I DIDNT LIKE SCHOOL EITHER BUT IM THINKING ABOUT MY FUTURE). We currently live with his mom, she is the sweetest not naggy and bitchy like most MIL. We both pay her rent. But I am 23 years old my ass is tired of NY, and I am tired of living here with him. I told him to get his CDL license since he doesn’t want to go to school. Every job opportunity or idea I throw at him he shuts it down. I told him if he were to get his CDL permit he can work for the city as a bus driver. And I can probably consider staying here and looking for an apartment because he would have something that is more promising than his current job and other ideas.
My man is 25 years old and works as a barista in NYC, the pay is okay. He also took the Fire department exam and we are still waiting for his results, but I told him not to waste time and continue to apply at other jobs or take a Welding class until the fire department calls him with his results and thats if he passed.
But now he is looking into UBER. No offense to anyone but that job does not have any type of benefit, you can make quick cash but there is no pension, no 401k, no dental and health insurance, retirement plan, etc which he desperately needs since he wants to have a baby. I am losing my patience and its just showing me that he can literally find an excuse for anything. He doesn’t even know what he wants to do to have a secure future. All he does is work and smokes weed with his friends and complain about how expensive these certifications are for the classes.
So I gave him a year, I told him if he does not figure something out starting now I’m leaving him.
Am I wrong? Do you guys think I should have left him already? What are your thoughts?
