My Boyfriend lives with me but thinks that it is OK not to have to contribute financially?? I am a single mother of 2, I don't work as I am studying and receive welfare. When we combined our incomes, I never heard the end of how I was spending his money! What should I do?

Kick him out?
Why would you support a third,adult child?

So much for working together!! If he can't pay his share, then kick him out and let him live under a bridge so some troll can spend his money.

How old are you, and how long have you known this irresponsible b@startd? How can you let a guy live with you and not discuss finances??

Or is he paying rent with personality, companionship, and great sex?? Maybe you can afford his services?? Sorry not be harsh or rude, be he will do whatever you put up with!!

Why does he think he shouldn't contribute financially? What possible excuse does he use? Does he have some sort of income?

As was said, time to let him know that this current arrangement just isn't working out. While you may like him, maybe even love him, let him know you feel taken advantage of the way things are, and you've decided it would be best for your relationship if he lives elsewhere.

Then you may want to rethink whether he is the sort of boyfriend you want to have.

Send him off somewhere else... If It hurts him to help you financially, then how much could he like you? If one of yours needs is that your partner should be able to help you financially, then find someone who is not going to be rubbing it in your face every time he does anything to help you. Why put up with it?

Good luck,
