Following on from my thread I am now living together with my boyfriend
just been a week as we had been on long distance for 1 year.
now my heart says no
Under one roof I don’t feel attracted to him . We are 49,58 years old
I was all happy talking to him for last year and now I see he is not physically attractive, not enthusiastic about finding a job, self centred, superficial, very basic human to me . Have to start partner visa if I agree to go ahead as he needs it to start work here
now I feel bad to have brought him here. Not excited but also feel not great options in the pool
dont want to be alone and single
First 2 months I enjoyed and when I saw he was tight fisted, not providing them my attraction started fading but we both kept pushing forward as we wanted it to work
soo much time energy and plans wasted
if it’s just living together and see how it goes then it’s ok
but Visa process has to start which involves money and effort
what’s pulling me into it…. Finding it hard

oooo, do l hear you op.
l met my sadly now ex under similar circumstances. She was already here though but due to a divorce was having major visa problems as the ex caused a ton of trouble with immigration for her, it took 4yrs of hell and courts for her to get through. l'd just been through D myself to though and so l wasn't about to just jump in. Anyway, very long story.
What's jumping out at me in your post though is that one, no attraction, that's pretty big but also a pretty basic need- we need that. Doesn't matter if your both 200kg , just as long as you both feel that about the person and attraction. But 2, you don't seem to have the other basics , such as seeing things similarly,feeling similar ways- love ofc too, just basics 2people need to even want to go further in the first place.
There is one thing you could ask yourself though. Me, l started to get v negative with ex and about her, things about her, but the trouble was her visa and whole situation was such a damn concern to me bc it looked like she might not be able to stay and as you know that's huge expense and complications to fight- but yet really, l hardly knew her. lt was all back to front , which made me get very negative and a self sabotagy type thing.
Do you think this might be something like that for you,interfering emotionally, or do you know in your heart those negatives are real and separate?
Does he have the visa money and other stuff ?
Just thinking if you did feel your sabotaging some, but he is funding himself, you could go on and just feel how it all plays out for you and true feelings about him.
