The video game thing is a symptom of the real problem: "he is undisciplined and responsible."

And you tell him what to change but he doesn't. That's because this is the way he is. Do you expect him to make you dinner and do the dishes every night? If you two come to an agreement about what you both think is reasonable, then you have every reason to be upset when he doesn't uphold his end of the bargain.

I'd be worried about a future with someone like this.

Welcome to the board msmia2,


Consider the book: Are You the One for Me? by Barbara DeAngelis - you might just find that the two of you aren't compatible with your lifestyles and expectations in a relationship.


Also consider reading:


Relationship Rescue, Phil McGraw
Five Love Languages, Gary Chapman
