I’m a 26 years girl and have been with my boyfriend who is also 30years for almost 6 months, he’s been living with me and my parents for about a month now. He was only supposed to stay for 3 days.

My parents finally had enough of him and rented a place for him to stay. My mother also recommended that I find a way to break up with him. He’s incredibly sweet but unfortunately he is extremely unintelligent. He barely got through high school. He does ridiculous things like putting a fried egg in the fridge till the next day, doesn’t even know how to use the Microsoft office, doesn’t know the meaning of simple words, etc.

My parents keep asking me if I really want to be with someone who couldn’t complete high school. Last time, he put a bowl of jollof in the cabinet with the dishes. The most annoying thing is he doesn’t know how to use an ATM. We have an amazing time when we go out on dates. He has an entitled attitude where he thinks that his family (that abandoned him in the first place) owes him.

Every job he gets seems to reduce his hours down to nothing and eventually fire him. He says he dreams of a life for us with a house, children, all that and sometimes I think I can see it. Then he’ll do something ridiculous that makes me question his abilities entirely. The sex is absolutely incredible and he’s the kindest person I’ve ever met.

I worry that in the future if we do decide to live together I’ll have to be the main source of income and maintain all the expenses and bills, because he’s incapable. This isn’t the future that I want for myself, but every time I bring it up he cries and says he’ll “try harder to better himself”.

I do love him and I want the best for him, our personalities seem to be perfect for each other and we have very similar interests and similar childhoods. Sadly, I’m not sure he is ever going to be able to make it out there in the real world. Should I stay in the relationship during the time that he is in transitional living and see if he improves, or break up with him before he goes? He allowed me to use his phone recently and I found messages between him and his ex-fiancé.

“I don’t care what my gf says I’m going to talk to you anyway” and “she’ll never break up with me she has too many problems” were just a few that I found. When confronted he apologized and said he was in a bad mental state at the time. He has been suicidal in the past and constantly talks about with me.

He blames his bad childhood for all his issues, whereas I don’t because I overcame mine and got help. This is only my second relationship, so I could really use some help. Here are some of the pros, because I don’t want this to look completely negative: He helps me run my home clothing business, he does the dishes, doesn’t drink/party, will do practically anything for me.

Hmmmm

A man that appreciated an "intelligent" lady like you, approached you to talk to you about it, got a "yes" from you cos you felt he deserved it is the same man you call too unintelligent cos he s got some weaknesses?

For you not to notice this before giving him a positive answer makes you far more unintelligent.

exactly what I was thinking... but Na wa for the guy though... how would you be staying with your girl's parents for 3month... ile igidigan

Is intelligent past of love. Been unintelligent doesn't mean he can not make it in life.who know maybe if you leave him now is life will be better

Staying with your gf parents for months could be as a result of a financial problem and might not mean unintelligent. But you can't be unintelligent and still be sweet

Some guys cn be crazy..he might even be "scamming" the girl. Now that the girl sees him as an occasional dunce which he is probably aware of, he can now hide under this umbrella to do these things which are not right..and blame it on his "weakness"

Super story

Not buying this

No need advising you;seems your mind is already made up.

In fairness, I think it could be really frustrating to put up with a slowpoke cos that's what he is


There are some things you don't learn in school, so forget the "I didn't complete high school" thingy.

Dumbness is no peccadillo,and it shouldn't be ignored.

stupid bf... tell him not to call u again...
good riddance
