Lil, you know that we all care about you. I could say more on this topic but that might be stepping over a boundary. Like I have said before, you have helped me many times, maybe where you didn't even know it.

What Chrome said sounded right to me all he heard was "I told you so!" That is a receiver error. Your bf got a different message than you sent. Let’s just say hearing “I told you so” is something men miss-hear more often than women. I think it has something to do with men supposedly are responsible how things turn out. Something to do we better be right because we have to pay for our mistakes. Something to do with some higher standard, we have to make better decisions just because we are men.

I can see you have your bf's best interest at heart. I think what you wrote about him not seeing many people other than you and his mom is not healthy. I had a few days that led to weeks like that myself, after some of my back incidents. It really sucks and some times I didn’t know how to get simple things done. Some days it took almost all day to get a few hours of work completed.

It's luck I have customers calling me. It forced me on those days to do some things and get out and about. It’s doubly difficult to get BB to go places some days. Perhaps your bf is making some contacts with people at the bar.

I was given that "oh she's so emotional, one of those woman-things" bullsh!t reaction.

And by God, it hurt! It hurt to be dissed that way

(((((Lil)))))

The C told him last time that since he's been sober ~ three years, that right now he's at the emotional level of a three-year old.
Sorry, I don't think that is/was a good enough excuse to blow you off like that.

Maybe part of your bf is 3 but most of him is still over 25. He knows what is proper in relationships when he has to react, has to do something or have the electricity turned off or something similar.

Lil please take care of yourself. You are too valuable of a person to be dragged down. Yes I can imagine it hurts right now. I am sending my best wishes your way for now.
