boyfriend who continues to break promises and act single
I have a boyfriend I have been dating for 8 months and he says he bought a ring and wants to marry me I am mad at him for telling me about the ring is squashed to romance aspect. Most of all he is on probation for 11 months for a dui and he is not allowed in any place they serve alcohol and he has been acting single and went out last night without me and he isnt supposed to go out because of his probation and he broke his promise to me by doing so. I am mad, we have had trouble in the past from him going to bars and other women and the lies and other women and ph calls and the drinking and the list just goes on and on... I love him but I am tired of his lack of respect for me and my daughter, he is acting like a single guy not a guy in love who wants to get married... what do I do?
Re: boyfriend who continues to break promises and act single
None of this makes one single bit of sense.
You are wasting your life away with this one.
Dump him.
Run, far away and don't look back!!

Ha ha, what if this is his best behavior.
OP, this guys isn't husband and father material.
I'm usually one who tries to look for the brighter side of things but I can't find one in this situation. Based on how long you have been dating him, he's obviously not the father of your daughter. If he was, I could see trying to stick things out to make them work for her sake.
Ask yourself this, 20 years from now, if your daughter came to you and told you that she was dating a guy who was like your BF and treated her the way your BF is treating you, what would you tell her?
This is a man who is NO man.
Run like hell and thank your lucky stars you are doing so. He isn't for you, to put it politely.
Therapy for you and stat: you need to find out why you thought a guy like this was marriage material.
I am guessing also he is a full blown alc; this is in addition to having the morals of an alleycat. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
How did that even happen? How did that happen in the KITCHEN??? Was it used toilet water? Clean toilet water from the back of the tank? Were you dating a feces tossing monkey of some sort?
How the hell do you get toilet water thrown at you?
Chronically hilarious - you'll split your stitches!
I wrote a book! Bucket list CHECK!

I want some kind of backstory.
That you were interested in a drunk and troublemaker and all around shithead makes me wonder about you. There ARE higher forms of life on the foodchain -- either you be one of them or find one of them to date.
