Should I stay or should I go?

I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years , we have a good relationship most of the time but there are some things that make me think I should leave. He takes the mickey out of all my negative traits, all the time. He thinks it is OK and maybe even funny, I think it is undermining. He is also usually depressed about his lot in life, from my point of view, his life is actually alot better than most peoples. He uses this as an excuse for lack of sex drive and affection at times etc. He tells me loves me several times a day but I have never felt secure in this relationship. I have left three times in the last three years but he has managed to change enough for me to take him back. He is better than he used to be but I am still not sure. By the way, he is 52, I am 43. We both have our own kids from previous relationships and live separately. Lily

Should I stay or should I go?
Time to go.....you are 43...just hitting your peak in a lot of ways....don%26#039;t waste it on someone who is wasting your time...





Good Luck!
Reply:You say he is depressed yet you also say that he takes the mickey, this is what you call banter between people who care for each other, we do it all the time, you say that he never shows affection yet say that he tells you he loves you several times a day. You have left him 3 times already, expecting him to change his ways for you to take him back. All this says to me is that you are not right for each other. Give him and your self a break and leave the guy for good.
Reply:It%26#039;s hard to guess from the info you provided, but if you%26#039;ve left him 3 times in 3 years, I%26#039;d think this indicates a problem :)





Forty three is way too young to settle for someone just so you can have a companion to sit on the front porch with!
Reply:if you are not happy leave, tell him to sort himself out. then if you want him back the choice is yours.... think about you and what you want, life is short remember.
Reply:Woman should follow those gut feelings. They are usually right.
Reply:All people in your situations have baggage, there are reasons he is like he is, just like you have reasons for who you are, you need to evaluate how well you two are getting along now, and know that as the years progress, your relationship gets more and more routine, If you don%26#039;t like how things are now, you will just resent him more and more.





Considering the fact that you have already split 3 times, you need to probably move on. Once you find you are a whole person alone, then you will be happier with the next relationship.
