I (20F) have been with my boyfriend (23M) for a few years. We live together with two dogs. I go to school and he works.

Since we’ve been here, I’ve figured out that he’s really lazy. He rarely brushes his teeth or showers unless he is instructed to, he doesn’t do the laundry unless explicitly told multiple times, he has skipped work the past two shifts saying he’s sick.

All he does is lay in bed and play video games. Any other thing he acts like is too hard, too much work. He only works 3-4 days a week part time and it doesn’t pay the bills. He pays like $400 on our 1500 rental.

My mom pays for our groceries, his phone bill, and other things. Pretty much everything and he just expects it. He doesn’t act grateful, he is mean about my mom and talks about how annoying she is.

I just feel like he is a weight dragging me down at this point. I have big goals in life and I don’t see him being a part of them with the way he acts right now.

His entire life almost is video games. I like to have fun, he likes to sit at home. Which is fine sometimes, but it’s ALL he wants to do.

He has been like this since I’ve known him in some ways. He lost his mom right before we met and lost his dad last year. I can understand that taking a toll mentally, but I am seriously drowning just sitting around waiting for him to do something and act like he gives a damn about what I want.

Any advice is appreciated, I’m at my breaking point in this.
