[quote=Anonymous]1. It sounds like you come from a very privileged background and family, so you seem a little out of touch with reality. Financially supporting five adult kids isn’t something most parents do. But luckily, you seem close enough to your parents (and they seem nice enough) that you can talk to them about your issues, which shows that they are good parents. It’s nice that you have that support—not many young adults have all three (a good family, friends, a partner, and lots of help).

2. I don’t really like the age you guys started dating (not sure why more people aren’t mentioning it). Twenty-two is still a kid, but your ages now are fine, and if he isn’t abusive or a bad partner (and it doesn’t sound like he is), the gap seems okay.

3. It sounds like your boyfriend has trust issues after being with his last girlfriend for so long and that relationship ending badly. But he probably wants to commit soon, especially since he wanted you to move in with him. If he doesn’t propose within the next six months of you living together, leave.

One thing I keep seeing on this thread that I don’t like is other women assuming that because OP is 26/still has her looks and he’s a little older but doesn’t want to commit to her yet, she must not have anything to offer and is just a toy or object for his emotional and physical pleasure. I think that’s absolutely disgusting and not a way young women should be seen or referred to, especially by other (older) women. It’s gross. I have three of my own teen daughters, and that isn’t the way I want people to perceive them in the future.
