In other words, her going out there every day on a bus isn't for HIM, it's for HER because she is a little bit needy and a little bit clingy. And then she wants him to respond with gestures of affection and he doesn't feel the need to because in his mind, losing her isn't that big a deal.

OP, this guy (most guys) will move mountains for the right girl, but unfortunately that girl isn't you. It might be timing or compatibility, whatever it is, this isn't going to work IMO. Good luck.
More info needed from the OP. We don't know if she's going out there every day. She's also said he's the best guy she's ever been with, which is odd, considering the niggling little complaints she's spread out over 2 or 3 threads. If this is the best she's ever done, I wouldn't want to hear about the other guys. I think the OP should keep looking.

Either the OP is very young, or she's....well, never mind.

I think this one is one where hearing the other side would be very helpful to determine how "bad" he really is.

True dat. But, do we EVER hear the other side of the story directly from the other side? Even with our own posts, do any of our SOs ever come here to post to tell their side of the situation? Dang, just imagine if that happened....man, this sub-forum would be hoppin' fo sho!

She's wants him to give him a ride home from his place on his days off, and you think that makes her a spoiled brat? I think it means she's coming to her senses.

I said it would be nice to hear the other side of the story to determine IF she is a spoiled brat.


Overall, to me: not having a car and expecting others to go out of their way for my failure to get a job where I can afford a car = spoiled brat


But once again - not enough info here. She doesnt tell us why she doesn't have a car. Too lazy, broke, car just broke, disabled, .... no idea.

Based upon her other threads, I'm not so sure he HAS days off - he works two jobs.

OP, I don't think you are spoiled. I've been married for 20 years. My husband STILL surprises me with little things every week. Sometimes, it is a $5 bouquet of flowers from the supermarket. Sometimes it is a green smoothie from Panera (yum!). Sometimes it is the next book in a series I've been reading. He sends me those silly Bitmojis that are all cutesy and romantic (and this is a 55 yr old man lol!).


If he doesn't make an effort, it's because he doesn't think you are worth the effort. I suffered through a relationship like that in my first marriage. Don't settle for someone just because they are "down to earth".
