Geesh. Sounds like a personal problem.

Yea, yours.

From the looks of your history, and this thread as well, I would say you aren't happy in the current relationship you are in. It comes off as you being either comfortable in the current relationship, afraid of change, afraid of starting over, or a combination of some of those reason. Not saying these are the specific reasons why you haven't left, but it really just sounds like you are trying to find a reason to get out of it, but just haven't done it.

If you are this unhappy, then you really should just leave.

Honestly dude was right. I am super dramatic and it’s a toxic trait. But I’ve been working on myself a lot. I don’t accept money from him like that anymore and in fact I moved back in with my parents just because I didn’t want to depend on him. I’ve been independent for awhile now. I just want him to grow with me. I’m a Gemini rising I’m constantly improving. I’ve been on his ass for months about doing more with his life. He loves me & I love him & I do believe we are both scared to death to leave each other. I’ve tried. I always come back.. I’ve never felt this way so I appreciate the ppl giving genuine advice instead of attacking me.

You need to sit down, and ask yourself if you are in love with him though. Cause all of these negative threads, don't speak of someone that is still in love.

Yes, you can love him. But are you in love?

I’m in a point in my life where I’m really trying to go for what I want. My boyfriend on the other hand is completely content with his life even though he could be doing so much better... the first year of our relationship it was me & him against the world. We’re like family at this point. But I have a HUGE problem that he never wants to leave the city. Even when he knows he has a few days off I’ll BEG him to take a trip somewhere. He always says no & we do something in town. Before I got with him I was never in one place for to long, and that’s just how I like it. Recently I moved back to my hometown just for the summer to figure out what I wanted in life and he was very patient with me. I traveled and got more done in a few months than in a year I was with him. What do I do? I’m only 25 and I’m not about to give up traveling for him. It’s my passion. And before anyone ask yes both of us are pretty well off when it comes to money. But most of my friends aren’t. I feel terrible for wanting to leave him because we’ve been through a lot together. But I’m just not happy. Help.

Maybe he's just waiting for you to breakup with him. Men when they are super into someone shines like the sun and becomes dullAF when they are with the one they already know is wrong for them. So yeah, breakup with him lol

I wish he would do it. Lol why do I have to be the bad guy 😂👎🏼

I think you just want confirmation from people to leave the guy. Why did you have relationship with him in the 1st place? I think it's normal for people to be different and have a relationship, that being said i totally get why you wouldn't want a boyfriend like that, i travel loads and that's one of the reasons why i don't really want a relationship with someone. I don't know where i'll go next most of the time or where i'll stay for a longer period of time. For me life is about experiences, learning and growth, same shit with relationships, i need someone that is interested in the world, who loves experience's, traveling , learning, growing etc. I'd say you already made up your mind, you're just feeling guility because of all that time you spent together. Better 2 years than 20. Best of luck on whatever decision you make. Just because you like a person doesn't make you both compatible.

When we met I was looking for stability. And I still am. But I told him I’m a traveler and he promised me he would take me places. He always promises. But he never did. Now when I bring it up he gets mad.. it’s not even just that he HATES taking my pictures when we go out. He completely low key.. I appreciate that and respect it. But I can’t get him to respect how I am.

a Leo Moons so idea of a traveling buddy Is having them there to take pictures of you the whole time lmfao, no wonder he don't want none of that shit.

You guys have great synastry just based off the sun and moon. Also, Gem is the best match for Aquas. Not sharing this hobby shouldn’t be a dealbreaker. It can be frustrating because, as a venus in Aqua, you seek your partner to be your best friend and travel with him. You need to compromise or work out a solution. Two years is good time with someone which shouldn’t be overlooked for not sharing one similar hobby of travelling.
