Aye. First rule of dating: If you come away from an interaction with someone feeling negatively toward yourself, you need to get rid of him.

Absolutely. He's not a bad guy. He's just not a good fit for her. And he's not going to change to suit her. They will both be happier and better off with more compatible partners.

So if I understand:


He's shown you who he is.
You don't like or enjoy being with who he is.


Why, exactly, would you be questioning whether you should break up with someone who doesn't make you happy and you don't enjoy being with? Kinda seems like a no-brainer to me...

You two are incompatible; feelings are irrelevant at this juncture.


I'm sorry, it can still hurt.


Don't waste anymore of your youth on someone who isn't right for you PLEASE. It is a mistake too many make. He will not change. Plenty of young men want to go out and be with their girlfriend.

Yep. That's what dating is all about. You see if the two of you work together, and if not, you move on. Doesn't mean anyone is wrong or bad, just wrong for you.
