Coco1212, just to add. What’s really got to me lately is two things. 1: I started an e-commerce business for him last year, a good one, with good scope to do well, registered it, had all the relevant licences put in place, trademark, website, purchased initial stock quantities, did everything for him. Told him how to do it, which he wanted, and was fine with. What happened?! He sold the stock for cash and smoked all the money. The profit would’ve been enough to re-supply stock twice over, did I see a penny of that money to be able to do that?! No. I used all the money I had this year to start that for him, he didn’t think ahead of the big win, just the instant small one. I don’t have the money to reinvest in more stock, so it’s idle. All that work. This money he has coming in will cover him paying me back cost price for the goods, baring in mind I’m not asking him to pay for anything I did to set the business up, which was a big outlay. I just wanted to see him make a success of it. Told him how. He didn’t do that. 2: I bought him one of those scooters for his birthday, he got a puncture pretty quick, was so heavy handed fixing it that he’s broken something while doing so, it now it won’t hold charge and is broken. After weeks! I really struggled to buy that too, just feels so disrespectful, you know! All this time I’ve wanted to find ways to improve our lives, I’ve finally managed to do that, and for what. I wasn’t being unrealistic, just never seeing where his priorities lie, not to the extent to which they actually are. Sick of it I am now. Sick of it.
