breaking up with her or not is a decision you have to make IF you think it's a symptom of your problem.

How did u come to the conclusion that your life isn't moving forward?
has she confronted you about it?
I've actually been moving BACKWARDS in terms of pay for my (mostly part-time) jobs over the last two years (from $10 to $9 to a pathetic $8 now). And in that time I had to move back in with my parents, and still somehow haven't managed to amass any savings. I've been paying sporadically on my student loan debts but because of interest and the fact that one is defaulted I'm pretty sure I owe more money than I did when I started paying on them. Looking back over the last couple of years I had an opportunity to do certain things but I haven't done them, but it's easy to look back on it that way and harder when you're living it on a day-to-day basis.

My girl isn't a problem individually necessarily, but she is an added expense because we live twenty minutes from one another and she doesn't own a car. And when you add in just the normal headaches/arguments/nagging you get from any relationship (I can't say that she's high maintenance or particularly troublesome or anything) it's just extra stress that I could do without.

And she hasn't really confronted me about it, she's actually been incredibly supportive from an emotional standpoint, but I can tell that she increasingly worries/believes that the reason I'm not moving forward is a lack of ambition. It's not really a lack of ambition as much as it is just an overwhelming feeling of discouragement.

On the other side, I do love her and I would hate to lose her just because I can't get MY shyt together. And I know I'd feel terrible breaking up with somebody when they haven't actually even done anything to spur it on.

You just need to remind yourself that challenges in life come to those who can handle it. In the words of my little brother: "You can let life take its course and direct you, or you can grab that nikka by the balls and show him whose boss"

He's a problematic but wise youngin' :yeshrug:

Man I'm so in my feelings about so much right now. Honestly the only things going on for me right now are some job prospects, my gym membership and this hilarious site. I cut off so many friends this year and I'm pretty much a ghost to the people I still associate with. I just need to go out of town, stack some bread and plan my next year. This failure life sux.

There are people doing alot worse can barely get out of the bed and you on here complaining :mindblown: You probably over thinking and doing alot better then you think.Come over to the gem thread and learn how to get your weight up in this world.
Even in my misery I can agree with this statement. From a grand perspective, my life is good, it's just I'm in my feelings today. Let me have that breh. :to:

the life i had before April 2011 i want back (military) and its not even the military itself that i miss, its all the positives that came with it.

You'd think life around your family would be easier but its not, now i have to see their problems every damn day.

Keep working the job you got. At night, hit the IT thread and learn a skill like your life is depending on it. If your girl is providing good emotional support through all of this, keep her around and let her know you appreciate her. If you believe in a higher power, find a way to build your spirit...read the bible, pray, get around positive people, do whatever you can. Finally, there are people out there with situations worst than yours...be thankful for what you do have (health, a place to stay, someone that cares about you, etc.). Good luck breh...I know you'll battle your way through this :salute:
