How can I get my boyfriend to get another job since his income now will not support us?
I am 20 weeks pregnant and stopped contributing 3 weeks ago, since my job was not suitable for a pregnant woman. He promised 4 months ago he’d get a second job and keeps stringing me along promising he will get a second job but has yet to get one. I took a trip to NY 3 days ago and told him I am staying here with my mom if he doesnt have another job by monday. I feel so sad and like I am being too controlling but I also feel like this is the only other option I had to make him realize his irresponsible actions. This baby was not planned and my income was the sole provider, his was our “fun”money. I feel like I have given everything I had to offer for a year and a half before I got pregnant and he should take these next 5-8 months and bust his butt to make ends meet until I can get another job. I have an 8 year old prior and have always supprted him on my own and am not afraid to raise another child alone, if it seems more healthy for my child sake. I really am hesitant to leave him also because I know how much my son needed a father and never had one. I feel so torn on what to do but if I move to my moms I will have a place to stay until I get on my feel again (she does not live in her house) and I will have my immediate families support if I need it. Any one in a similar situation and care sending some advice. Also he is a binge drinker and sometimes spends the rest of our bill money (or money we dont have) on going out all night long with his friends. I ask him if he can just buy some beer for the house and have his friends over but its not good enough! He has to spend 10 dollars a drink at the bar and then drive home wasted, or not come home at all. Then the next day have a very nasty hang over and scream at me and my son all day. i am very sad and need help….
If he doesn’t want to get another job that is one thing, but if he has been trying with no results, I can understand. The economy sucks and there are a lot of people, especially younger people, looking for work. If he isn’t trying get him to understand that with the baby coming it takes more money to support 3. Babies are a big added expense. He’ll realize that.
The important thing he must realize is ‘what is good for the survival of the family’. He should be proud he can take care of. And if it needs a second job he must do it.
Kent has a point….it’s hard enough right now to find one job, let alone two. But, if he’s not even looking, then he’s for sure not going to find one. However, since your BF is a binge drinker at this young age, I can only imagine what he’ll be like in 10 years….best stay with family, get on your feet…knowing that you can care for yourself and baby, too, will boost your confidence in this situation..and hopefully give you the maturity to make the right choices when it comes to men. Being a “father” only takes sperm…being a dad means “being there completely”…no binge drinking, supporting your family, and loving the mother. Your BF doesn’t sound to me, like he’s going to measure up to that.
