[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honey. Take it from all the 40+ year old mamas here on DCUM. We know what we're talking about.

Good for you for studying for the GRE while holding down a nanny job.

Not to sound judgmental but you've already told us that BF did not go to college, lives in Baltimore (we assume you're in DC?) and that you've been dating him for only 6 months. I know that feels like a long time and anniversary/ flowers/ diamond ring worthy in your mind, but trust us -- it's not.

You will quickly outgrow this fella if you continue on your present track of full employment and especially grad school. Please recognize that. That is a good thing. The sooner that you see that and that all of this drama he is presenting you with is only going to hold you back, the better off you will be.

You are 22. You have an important job and a bright future ahead of you. PLEASE put that first. This guy is simply not keeping up with you, and he knows it. That is the root of all of his insecurity and professed adorations. Think about it.[/quote]

Thanks!  the best advice I've read thus far. :)
