[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 688656, member: 18238"] Honey, the longer he stays the more comfortable he gets and the less likely it is that he will work towards leaving. He has spent all morning laying in bed watching videos on your laptop, not job hunting. When he came out he asked if I would take him out later to hang with J during his lunch break. I said no, he launched into a rant about him having to walk to the bus in the rain, blah, blah, blah, insert sob story here. I ignored him. He went back in the bedroom. Later, he asked if I'd take him to get a pack of cigarettes. I said yes and when we pulled into the lot I said "Please dont buy alcohol". He looked at me and said "Why did you even need to say that?". Again, I didnt say anything. On the way back to the house he commented that he hoped the rain would stop soon as he would be walking to the bus stop in an hour or so. I said it was supposed to stop some time this afternoon but not sure when. He is back in the bedroom, presumably watching videos of some kind or gaming, and hasnt said anything since. I know he will get mad at me again in just a few minutes when I tell him to wash his dishes before he leaves. Sorry Honey, but between him and the shoulder I dont know how much more I can take. Is he ready to move out right now? No, but thats because he spend almost a month and a half screwing off instead of finding work. Did we promise to buy some furniture from Goodwill? Yes, but we can put it on the credit card. Can agreements be renegotiated? Ye, but I see no reason to renegotiate an agreement that he is only putting out a token effort to comply with. When we first made this agreement, I expected him to be gone at the beginning of May. Not sure if I can handle it until mid June, especially if the shoulder issue doesnt improve. [/QUOTE]
