Happily living with cancer boyfriend for over a year. We've had talks about his income being really low and we've talked about wanting a child, a home and to travel. I'm 10 years older then him and time frame is of importance given that circumstance. I've become aggressive in my stance that he needs to peruse income given what he wants for us and be seems lately very distant and quiet. When we first talked about needing more income we agreed and it seemed understood until he did nothing for weeks to even look or peruse anything new, now I've become upset and unsure he is even wanting to get to that point. He seems settled. I'm an Aries if that helps. My question is am I pushing him away and why isn't his desire to provide coming natural.

He agreed that you should bring more income.

What's stopping you from going out and bringing in more income yourself? Maybe he prefers to be a stay at home dad and caretaker.
