I have recently left my husband of 12 yrs, for many reasons, but mostly for his extreme lack of life. Not wanting to do anything but sit on money and rot away. I have met somebody now who seems great and we have alot in common. I can easily say more in common than anybody else that I have met. He is also divorced and due to a combination of a previous bankruptcy, child support and bad money management he is flat broke.
Now I have my settlement money, my ex and I always being very hard workers and very good with money. Now this new boyfriend never has money to pay for anything, he is not able to even pay for his own car insurance, etc., pay his utilities. So I find now that I am in a position to enjoy life, see shows, travel, I am dating a great guy who can't keep up.
Our sex life is great, he is handsome and funny. But I just can't keep bankrolling every little thing that we do.
He is pressuring me to have him move in, and I am not into it because my daughters and I are still dealing with settling in after the divorce, and I don't feel confident in his intentions. I don't need this guy bleeding me dry - where will that leave me and the kids?
I really don't know what to do. Also, am I beating a dead horse? Should I be playing the field a little bit?
Help?!

I wouldn't want to cohabit with a man who isn't pulling his own weight. It's bad enough just dating him. Living with him will be ten times worse!
