I'm here at my house. BF calls and says he's on his way out here with Mom to pick some sweet potatoes from the garden. They arrive. He sticks his head in the door and says they're here. They go out to dig sweet potatoes. I don't go because 1) I'm not interested and 2) navigating on the dirt is hard in the wheelchair. So I'm at the computer doing bills and stuff. Then after about 15 minutes, she sticks her head in the door.... "May we come in??" I say, "Of course." I wheel into the dining room, they show me THREE sweet potatoes they have picked. (I gather there are dozens and dozens in the garden.) They start moving toward the door. I come back here to the computer. Bf comes in and kisses me. I say, "Y'all are leaving, just like that?" He says, "Well, it's going to be dark in a little while and I have to get her back home." I say, "Okay." They drive away. Total visit time approximately half an hour. This is a guy who NEVER has time even to have dinner with me, who cannot commit even to going to shul anymore because he doesn't know what he'll be doing... bear in mind the distance from his mom's apt to my house and back is a round trip of about NINETY MILES. Let's face it, he's with the woman of his dreams, who adores him and dotes on him, who doesn't want or expect sex, who giggles and fusses over every little thing. Why on earth does he need me in his life? And why on earth do I need him for a boyfriend??
