I have been with my boyfriend for more than two years, and he has never done anything romantic for me. I’ve always been the one providing for myself, taking care of all my needs, and I’ve never once complained. Sometimes, I even gift him. We’ve celebrated three Valentine’s Days together, and he didn’t give me anything, even though I gifted him once. He always brings up the excuse that he’s not used to it. I am very hardworking, and he always commends my efforts, but he’s not as supportive as he should be. I sponsored myself through school, and he has never once given me a penny to support my education. Even if I ask, he says he doesn’t have much. Apart from that, he always borrows money from me.
I still have about N100k with him, which I’ve even forgotten about because I know he won’t pay me back. He always has plans whenever he’s broke, but once he has money, the plans change. Now he’s planning marriage with me, but I don’t think I can live the rest of my life with someone like this. Someone who wouldn’t even gift me on my birthday unless I ask and ask. Someone who only supports me with words. Please, I don’t want anyone to say I’m feeling entitled. We are meant to support each other, but he’s not. He always calls on me if he needs help, and I always do it for him. But if I need help, he’s always too broke to help. Is this enough reason to break up with him? I don’t want to lead him on with the marriage.
