Kinda harsh but... No. I don't rely on other people to pay my way.

Yeah, I dated a clingy, needy guy and had to end it. It was an effing nightmare because I'm the exact opposite of clingy and needy.

What about those lonely old women who need a man now and are sick? I am sure they 'need' them now but they are not there. Something to think about.

You might as well pull the plug now on the relationship. I will never work long-term. You already seem miserable, and I don't think its going to work with this new guy. I personally can't stand needy guys either. I am so independent and introverted that I need a similar man in order to be sane in a relationship.

Well, I guess you are in a position in which you need the guy for a place to stay; I remember when I lived at home, I had to do things I didn't like, but I had to do them because I did not have a job at the time and nowhere to go(I was a teenager); it was my parents house and they paid the bills, so John had to do whatever was asked with no questions asked and it was only fair.

Since you are in the position in which you need the guy, you will have to either put up with it or leave. If it is so bad you cannot stand it, talk to some relatives to see if you can go stay with them; you are not giving a lot of details as to what the guy is doing to make your life miserable, but honestly, since it is his place, he is entitled to do whatever he pleases; unfortunately, as much as you hate it, you are going to have to put up with it... things in life always come at a cost and you should be willing to pay this cost if you decide to continue living through this situation.

I'm dealing with a similar situation from a newer "friend" who clearly has a problem with verbal diarrhea. Annoying as fuuuuuuuu**!
I have done that, yet he doesnt respect those boundaries. and yes it is annoying. To answer other responses, it is his place so i have to deal with it, i didnt come into this poor but sadly i am now, and yes hes partly to blame, but i by no means live for free and i dont have anyone here to stay with.

If it's that bad then maybe you need to just pack up and go. Maybe you need to put some feelers out there and find a room to rent. But there is no reason to stick with someone just for financial reasons. If you can't stand him that much, then go.

Well, in that case, I'd suggest either finding a hobby that gets you out of the house for a bit, or if you don't have a job, look for something you can save up some quick $ from- like even just enough for a bus ticket if it's that bad!!!!
