A few hours ago, my boyfriend and I had a fight and it went into him ripping into me for having a bad credit score, and not having a job for so long. Well after that, my cat got outside and I couldn't find him, he is an inside cat, and there are a lot of other cats outside that are much bigger and territorial, so I get very worried. My boyfriend could not even be nice to me over that. I found my cat, talked to my boyfriend. And now he says he doesn't know if he wants to be with me,l and once again throws in my face that I haven't had a job, and I tell him, I'm working on something and then he says "I'll call you tomorrow, you do what you have to do, and I'm going to do what I have to do" and then he hung up and wouldn't answer. Then he calls back and does the same thing over and asks for a break, then I piss him off and no he just wants to break up forever. Then now its that he will call me in the morning. I just am so upset because I have no idea whats going to happen. I thought things were going to get better with him and me, because he moved into a new place, but this just makes me realize that i was so wrong. So I might not have a boyfriend in the morning, what do I do? Have any of you been in anything similar?

i have been in this sort of situations a lot before when i say a lot of unnecessary things to my gf and regret it later... in the heat of the fight it jus does not come naturally to take things easy... the question is is this the first time this is happening? do you feel that things have gone a little overboard this time... jus maintain your cool and make sure you dont make things worse.. give him time and he may realise what he is missing.. are you sure there is not something else he is not telling you?only you will know him better ... you need to think about everything you know about him and make a decision as to whether what he said and did was within his character.. if not something is surely amiss...of course it is good that you have realised your mistake ... tell that to him in so many words... when he calls in the morning... i am sure he will... it is not easy to give up on somebody you love.. i am sure he will not... promise him you will do better in finding a job and remember one thing.. have your priorities... when a guy is talking about life and you are worried about your cat this in most cases will piss him off... dont ask me why...thats how we are..all the best

I don’t think you need worry too much. The relationship is always going ups and downs. I have had the similar experience with my husband too. I said a few times to separate with him but at last we got married. I also have a friend who said told me one day she separated with her boyfriend, but in one year they got married. You should think why your boyfriend wants to leave you? And think seriously do you make him happy in heart or not. Also mind you relationship can be very vulnerable sometimes. We should try to cherish it not spoilt it. Also sometimes the alternative maybe worse than the one you have now.

Your relationship seems to have been stressed out. Both of you seem to be having and giving each other the attitude. While he has no need to talk about your employment status, you were not very wise in ticking him off time and again. The best you can do is to calm down and talk things over. Find a way to get on with each other and settle down. If things have gone too far to reconcile call it quits before it turns more unpleasant. At least you will be able to carry on with life.

Spicey Sweetie, I am sorry to hear the trouble you having with your bf. Not sure if you will have him any longer. I dont want to upset you okay. I will give you my opinion about it.. First off everyone in this world has bad credit and we cant help it, but you must fix it when you have money and pay it off eventually soon when you have extra money. Job is hard to get but you need to keep trying to get one so you can survive on your own.. So men are soo hard to please and when you think about it they always want a woman that they can love and has enough money.. If a man love you he would not care how much money you have or where you stand financially and would give you all his loving .. but also make the best of it for the both of you.. if that the only thing he argue with you over then obiviously what important to him having money.. u can leave him... But sometime i know some people relationship like to do 50 to 50 where each one of have a job and split.. so it only fair.. but never know.. i dont know your bf. so i am just saying. But if he not wanting to look after u then let him go.. May I ask what is it that holding you back that keeping you busy?? anyway as u can see. where i stand. I will pray for you hang in there.

The moment he didn't console me about my cat, I would have broken up with him! Your cat is like your child, right? If he doesn't care about your feelings , then it is time to leave. If he wanted to be with you and you two were arguing but the cat went missing, if he really loved yo , his anger would have turned to concern about your cat. I am coming to this post a day later , I hope everyting went okay. Take care.

I think you should honestly be considering a break-up with this guy as a plus point. Any man that is going to give you grief over your credit score or your job situation obviously doesn't care about you for you. Just for what you could provide in the future. You need someone who is going to treat you well and help you feel good about yourself, and I don't think jerk is going to be able to do that.

Hey Spicy! Listen Muchacha you have to be strong. I know how confused and hurt you are but dont let him know it. Its not fair that he thinks its okay to mindfu** you. If he dont want to be with you then say it! He is not in control of your relationship. You both are! Who gives him the right to shut his phone off until he wants to say something. You have played right into his hand. From here on in, there will be no more of that. Call his bluff. He thinks by telling you all this things and disrespect you. My man used to do the same thing. Always telling me that maybe we should break up. I used to be like what did I do? Im sorry. Not anymore because I realized it was his way to control the relationship. The next time he said it I said "You know what maybe you're right.If you're not happy I dont want to keep you in a relationship" Since we live together I printed out apartments. I asked him if it was okay if I stayed in the apartment for a month so I can find a new place. He really believed me and he saw that I wasnt going to keep someone that didnt want to be kept. Life is too short. You can find someone else if need be. He may need to know that. You are a woman not his bit**! You deserve to be treated with respect! If he's not there in the morning, Move on sister! It will be hard but worth it in the end. I promise you it will get better with him or without him. Keep me posted! If you need to talk, please private message me and we can chat. Good luck girlie. I am with you in spirit giving you strength. BE STRONG dl

My husband has threatened to leave, said he felt like leaving, asked if he should pack his things and the like. People tell me that that is emotional blackmail and that I should just call his bluff. If he wants to break up with you he should just do it. And if he doesn't want to, he shouldn't say things like that. It isn't right for him to torture you that way.

I don't think if your boyfriend conduct in such a manner is right being a lover. I don't like those behavior in terms of love affair. If you really love one person you need to be respectful and nice everything and not arguing everything that is not parts of the relationship you had. Try to talk with you boy friend in his manner. Knows what is really going in him. Try to elaborate the sweetest moment you and him will always have a good relationship...hope you make a better aspect of every angle in your relationship. If does not work think the second remedy. If you don't know how? Don't hesitate to ask my assistant to give you some advice that I think will give you a little ideas and view about the matter...have a great day!

If he loves you, you can bet your last dollar he will still be your boyfriend in the morning when you wake up! It is not easy to have an enduring relationship without quarrels. Learn to know each other. Learn to Love each other. If there is sufficient communication, chances are that you and your boyfriend will get along well. Good topic to attract attention and response!
