Hey, Hey Waffle gang. I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more relationship stories. And if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider in the like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. Let's crack on with today's first story. Much love, guys. Now, today's first story comes from Atlas Lady who says,

My boyfriend's 26 male optimism and immaturity almost destroyed me, 25 female financially.

I cut him off and now he feels abandoned.

Is there any hope he'll grow up?

Or am I being the immature optimist now?

My boyfriend and I started dating in July of 2014.

He is the biggest optimist in the world and lived a pretty cushy life as the only child

of divorced parents.

We both lived separately and had jobs that covered all our bills and then some.

He bought an expensive sports car,

gaming computer, a pure-bred dog, important later. He was in school while I had graduated a year

before and started work as my first big kid job. Life was great and the first six months

were some of the happiest times of my life. The first week of January 2015,

he was wrongfully terminated from his job. The new supervisor was on the wall path to replace

everyone on boyfriend shift with his friends and waited until the new year. After the holiday

rush was over to start cleaning house. The government sided with boyfriend during the unemployment

claim and boyfriend started

receiving benefits. He decided to focus on finishing school instead of looking for more work.

This is where the crack started. He was supposed to graduate that May, but he failed a class

and couldn't. So he had to go to school in the summer. In June, his savings ran out and he could either afford his car payment and insurance or rent.

His lease was up at the end of July, so I agreed to pay his rent and he could move him

with me in July and finish school.
