My bf (24M) wants me (19f) to completely drop everything and move to his state would that be a smart move?
My bf and I have been dating over a year I love him a whole lot. Well things haven’t always been the best and it’s been rocky at times. I started my first year of college last fall and my mom didn’t help me get to school much at all. I had no car and not much money to uber and it would’ve been quite a bit to walk when it takes under 5 minutes to get to the school driving as it was up the street from home. A lot of the time my bf would come all the way from
Chicago (I live in a different state ) which was 30+ mins away at times. He would take me to class , he would pick me up majority of the time. My mom had moved her ex boyfriend in again and started treating me differently.
So since that happened my mom started to become angry at me and yell at the time. She would get mad if go to my boyfriend’s house at the end of the school week. She started finding random stuff for me to do around the house to complain about and threaten to kick me out multiple times and even told
Me to leave . Sometimes she’d do this in front of my boyfriend having him think that she didn’t want to help me. That she didn’t like me etc it was sometimes embarrassing and I cried . My mom had never threaten to kick me out before this.
She started to pick arguments with me all the time to the point now I don’t want to live here and I would like to live with my partner . The only issue is I have no job or money right now to move states . This would completely leave me dependent on him which I don’t want . As much as I love my boyfriend he can be emotional draining at times . If he gets mad, we get in an argument or he doesn’t agree with something I said he will shut completely down and not want to be near me. I wouldn’t wanna be stuck there I would wanna leave if he needed to cool off not be trapped. He only does it sometimes but when it happens it can last hours or days with an attitude.
As of now I feel trapped , me and my mom have ups and downs I love her I just don’t wanna be here anymore. I love my boyfriend but I can’t go somewhere and completely abandon my only support system because he thinks they won’t help . Also he wants me to only depend on him which I don’t want to I want my own stuff money and car . I feel like staying closer to family is the best thing for me at the moment though we live in a different city as them that’s closer to his work. He makes it seem like such a hard compromise .
He thinks Chicago will offer me a job right away and things would work out there than in my state . This is stressing me out my mom also tells me not to move with him as he’s very up and down in general no matter the state . What do I even do at this point ?
