    Precisely - although as we all know there are people out there who take the mickey.

    In answer to the OP - my ex was exactly the same - I paid for everything from a good salary and he stayed on the dole paying me "rent" very occassionally. But what I realised was that I was in the best position. I had the rent in my name, the bills in my name and at that time no debt. So I was able to up and leave which left him no where to go but back to his mum's. He was never able to get a flat or bills in his name and had a bad name financially.

    It is noones fault but his own. And don't you feel pity or remorse because i struggled with that for a long time and I eventually worked out that years of emotional abuse and stealing my money were grounds for leaving and that anyone would agree with me.

    Just get away....

    Thanks to millions of taxpayers.


    yeah, b***y widows, careless enough to lose a husband and next thing you know they expect the state to help them feed their kids while they're grieving...

    Personally I pay my taxes solely to fund the war in Iraq

    Sammy your here once again!
    How many more chances are you gonna give this chap of yours?
    Every few months you end up in this dilemna and nothing seems to change, the guy is treating you like a mug (harsh i know)

    Do what is best for you and your child and if that means dropping this chap then do it.

    Re read you other posts and ask yourself has anything actually changed since you posted these.

    crikey, i take my advice about giving him a 2nd chance back now that i have read your other pasts Sammy!! i did not realise that this wasnt a new thing that he was doing!

    I'd kick him out, let him go and live the life of a lad he seems to want, and you move onwards and upwards chick xx (((hugs)))

    Nope, your taxes pay me my salary for what i do, that you dont want to know about, or care about & that you dont know about..

    You think i love being locked away for 7 days with nothing to do except watch tv and eat? :rotfl:

    You're even better! If you said you had a SNES I would say you were too good to be true and not real! :D
