[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 517714, member: 13882"] Hello and welcome. First of all, you're not a failure. We've been lied to, stolen from and then meant to feel guilty when we stood up for ourselves, so I know what you're going through. It's extremely unhealthy and unwise for you to put up with this. If he's lazy and unmotivated, I agree that college would be a waste of time/$. Does he have an aptitude for a trade, like auto repair, cooking school, etc? If he has no discernable interests, then he has to get a job and get out - and he WILL be ticked off at you, and alternatively he will try to charm you - he'll do anything at all to continue being comfortable. Be aware, lock up your stuff and lay down the law before he's really going to be lost. It's appalling how much we sacrifice for such poor treatment and little appreciation. It just makes me so angry. You'll get a lot of support here; keep posting and reading thru the threads. [/QUOTE]
