Is it time to leave? 25f and 29m
I, 25/F have been in a relationship w my 29/M boyfriend for 2 years. He’s my first boyfriend and I feel like this is part of the reason I’m having a hard time navigating what to do.
We’re both teachers, however he has been unemployed this past year and will probably continue to be unemployed for this upcoming year due to his lack of responsibility and work ethic. Last year, in June 2025 he was no longer eligible to teach because he needed to pass an assessment (edtpa) to earn his credential. He slacked off on it, way before he met. He procrastinated and submitted whatever slob he had and as a result he failed (for the 2nd time). I understood that last year was hard for him because his mom was deported in January of 2025 and his sister (whom he’s very close with) moved across the country. However he has not made any progress to revise his work
I feel like I’ve given him so much grace, but it’s hard for me to be attracted to him at this point. Sex with feels forced but ultimately he’s a very sweet and attentive man and I hope things change.
