You are were so helpful with my last topic "is $200 not enough for a birthday gift", so I thought I would ask this question also. My BF & I have been together for 5 years - he lived with me but moved out twice because of disagreements that at the time could not be worked thru. He has been living with a friend & pays rent to this friend (who asked him to move out) and buys groceries. So we have been seeing each other again & he has stayed here for overnight for the last 4 weeks & has not given me one cent.

So, my BF's ex hates me and has posioned SS15 aganist me for no reason other than she wants to control BF. She has moved on and has a daughter with her current boyfriend. She is a real peach. BM and the BF argue 95% of the time. BF will not put BM in her place because he is afraid she will withhold visitation, although court ordered.SS's b-day is in two days and BM invited BF to go out to dinner with all of them, excluding me.
