Today, my boyfriend and I got into a massive argument because I suggested he should get a part-time job while studying. The same boyfriend that i have been supporting for almost a year of him being unemployed. Im paying his rent, bank loans, gym and food.. FML

I think this is meant to read “ex-boyfriend”...

*I* think this is meant to read, "PARASITE"...

Looks like it's time for a good dumping

He needs to pull up his big boy pants, and get himself a part time job. Stop paying for his stuff.

Why are you paying for his anything? You're not his mother! I think in a couple, each partner should pay for their own things - one supporting the other is NEVER a good idea.

I have no qualms with support, but when a person becomes a crutch, then it's a problem.

It's simple. He doesn't work, you don't pay for him.

i think its long past time for u to leave him.

It sounds like he's using you for everything you've got, and once he achieves his goals after graduating he'll dump you without looking back. Sorry if that comes off harsh, but this FML is really pissing me off. You're not at all being selfish or asking too much for demanding he get a part-time job while studying. I know it can be hard managing time between work/play/studies as a student, but he's got to put up his big kid pants and deal with it. He doesn't seem to know how lucky he is that he has you supporting him so far, nor does it sound like he understands that what you're doing for him has been a privilege not a right.
