@Bhp91126 Yeah you're right and frankly I should have learned from a previous relationship. As far as talking to him on the phone and "monologuing" that's just how conversations are, I don't lecture him all the time or anything like that. He just doesn't have much to add to the conversation.
That just goes back to the whole "you can't fix people." I know better but here I am trying just that. I can almost deal with this odd collecting and antiquing...the cars might be a bit too far.
@ChadCoxRox I guess I'm alluding to the fact that this is almost for sure not going to work out with him. I want to have faith that he'll get it together but I think I'm kidding myself and maybe he will but that might be 5 years...15 years who knows. I think it is ok to give someone a reasonable amount of time to do things but I think he's got some growing up to do and I hate it for him because he's 30 and frankly it only gets harder the older you are. I just really hate hurting people and perhaps this is my fault for allowing it to progress to the point that it has. I don't know how to deal with that and how you can tell early on that shit just isn't going to work.
I guess in posting this stuff to the forums it is really just me trying to work it through and perhaps a sanity check.
