He’s Financially Dependent on Me
Hello! I’m just looking for some advice on how to remove myself from a relationship where he has become financially dependent on me. I am 24 and he is 29, he has two girls of his own (6 & 7) and I have a two year old of my own. We have been together for a little over a year. Slowly, he has cared less and less about paying his personal bills and now has given up all together, however, he has been making quite a bit of money, but has been spending it recklessly. Recently the house we live in has been put on the market since he has been unable to keep up with the only bill he is responsible for besides his phone, the mortgage. I have been paying for both mine and his expenses for a few months now and I have become very burnt out. Last night, he told me he quit his job because he didn’t like it, that I get to be his “sugar momma” for a while before his money for selling the house comes in at closing. Besides financial issues, our relationship hasn’t been the best, he’s extremely narcissistic and treats my son very differently than his own children. Each time I try to bring up how I feel about his treatment towards me and that I can’t afford a family of 5 on my own, he will twist it around and say that what I’m saying are “stories that I make up in my head.” He makes me question my own reality and has drained me financially. I can’t actually tell if he’s a good person and I’m making these things up like he says or if he truly is a narcissistic man who needs to grow up. I want to leave so badly and I have planned everything out. I just need some third party opinions on the situation and how to leave him when he is dependent on me for money. Thank you... ❤️
