Im a recent college graduate but i havent found a job yet. Im starting to get really discouraged. that's not all, Im living with my boyfriend and he's still in college and supporting the both of us. I feel so helpless right now and this situatiuon is putting a strain on our relationship because we see each other everyday all day. sometimes we argue over dumb card games and pettie things of no importance. I love him so much and we've been together for 2 and 1/2 years. I don't want to move back in with my mom because she lives 800 miles away and we've already did the long distance thing and its too expensive. Im starting to get depressed and i need advice, please...I need relationship advice?
Relationship advice? Sound like you need advice on life in general.
Listen, your current attitude isn't doing anything to help your situation:
You just graduated but you don't have a job. (Thus you feel unsuccessful.)
Your boyfriend is still in college and yet has to support you. (He's probably a little agitated over this.) Even if he says ';It's ok,'; ignore what he says; most people would be stressed over this.
You're broke and going back home would seem like a greater failure. (So you hang on to your current living situation and use the relationship as a crutch.)
Even if you find a job soon, I doubt it will solve all of your relationship problems. However, you can alleviate some of the stress by doing the following:
1) Don't let your disappointment bring you down. Cliche? Yes. But such a self-defeating attitude will crush your job hunt before it begins. Plus who wants to come home to someone moping on the couch.
2) Find a part-time or commission job at least! Yes, I know it isn't easy in this market, but this step is essential. This will get you out of the house and money in your pocket to help with household expenses. If your bf sees a little money from you, he may ease up on you during Spades.
3) Be more independent. You need to figure out what would be *best for you.* If moving back home temporarily is the best thing to do, so be it. You need to do everything to help your situation out. Bf is doing what he can but trust that he's aware * he has no legal obligation to take care of you.* If you're too much of a strain, the relationship may break and you'll be out on the street. Take care of yourself and place yourself first before that happens.I need relationship advice?
i've been with my wife for 4 years and i see it as u need to stop arguing over little **** its gonna kill you in the end and honey if you worried about him doing all the work then you need to get to a mcdonalds or somthing and get a job atleast until you find something that utilizes your degree
maybe you can get a part time job that does not pertain to your degree to make ends meet for now. sounds like you both need your space and getting out of the house for a few hours and you not feeling so guilty will help the relationshp.
get a quick job that is part time, and while doing that look for a real job so that you can at least bring some money in the house but you will not be settling with a minimum wage job
you just need to get out the house .so go find a job 'even if it.s low payed .and you feel that it.s below you .you will feel better '
i.m sure something better will come along .
