I'm starting to be turned off/icked sa boyfriend ko.
Problem/Goal: Mabilis mag-give up ang boyfriend ko sa trabaho and this is making me doubt our future together.
Context: I am still studying, but I already have plans to find a stable job after I graduate. I am thinking long-term and preparing myself for adulthood and responsibility. My boyfriend, who is in his mid-20s, is currently working, which I initially felt good about especially since matagal din siyang walang trabaho before. He has worked before, but most of his jobs only lasted a short time. The longest he stayed was around three months. His usual reasons for quitting are that the job is too tiring, the workplace is too far, the schedule is difficult, he does not like his boss, or he simply does not like the job. We have already talked about this issue before, and I noticed that he seems to lack drive or motivation when it comes to work. He said he will work on it.
Now, the same pattern is happening again. He has not been in his new job for long, but he already started being absent because he says he is too tired from the commute. This bothers me because, realistically, most jobs are tiring, especially at the beginning, and eventually you just have to adjust and get used to it. Because of this, I am starting to feel turned off and I think I am slowly losing feelings for him.
It feels like we have very different views when it comes to the future. What makes it more frustrating is that when it comes to playing games, he is willing to stay up late every night, but when it comes to work, he easily gives up. I do not know how to open this topic with him without hurting his feelings. At the same time, if I am being honest with myself, there is already a part of me that is considering breaking up with him because I am no longer sure we are heading in the same direction.
Any advice?
