He won't work? Let alone spend tuppence on me?
I'm worth So Much More than that. Step along. Lump-sum-hoarder will find another wondering woman while you find a bloke with *far* more going for him.0 -
Tight and lazy. Sounds a keeper. Not0

You have incompatible lifestyles and values, you disapprove of all his life choices, the relationship isn't making you happy, and he refuses to change in a way that will make you happy.
Leaving aside the question of what on earth possessed you to get involved with someone who is so obviously not your type, why are you having difficulty deciding whether to stay or go? Is there something more to this?0 -
Got to ask.
How do you meet someone like this in the first place?
Once you do meet them how do you get to the stage that you consider investing more time.0 -

... a guy who refused to go out to eat dinner or go to the cinema because he didn't want to pay for himself let alone treat you?
*Guy doesn't want to work, and is living off his savings. He wants to stay at home self-teaching (English Lit) most of the day. Will spend money on concerts or plays (£5). He hasn't really changed his clothing style since he was a teenager (baggy jeans and hoody). I don't really care how a person dresses, I just mention it because he is generally quite set in his ways (he's in his early 30s now).
Has said he will "treat" his partner to come and watch the play or concert with him and suggests she do the same for events she wants to go to with him (however she enjoys eating out every week so that would involve her spending money on him more often).
What do you think?
How did you two meet ?0 -
Sounds a right catch, do you really need to come on a money saving website and ask about this?
Obviously loads of women would be interested in this man, if I were you I would be thinking about suggesting marriage and children. Act fast though as you dont want him to slip away.0 -
