My boyfriend is a kind, compassionate man who washes the dishes and walks my dog. I've been his girlfriend for five years. Last month, when we ran into one of his friends, he introduced me as his "pal." I let him have it! And I'm still angry. He's chronically late—I'm not talking fashionably late, either. When he arrived two hours late for our fifth-anniversary dinner, I almost castrated him! He's been out of work forever, and I'm tired of paying for everything. We talk about marriage, but he never proposes. He says he "resents" being "forced" into anything. He wants to live in the city; I don't. Once he starts working (whenever that miracle happens) he wants to live alone for at least a year. How long does he expect me to wait before he marries me? We're having sex less and less.
