My boyfriend of 10 years always makes excuses for not getting married. It can't be commitment because we have a kid together. He spent $4000 on a gaming PC, but freaked out over getting me a ring that was $1500.. things like this make me feel worthless to everyone. My own mom complained about just having breakfast together for my birthday (all I wanted was to have breakfast together no gifts) but spent over $600 on my son's teachers for the end of the year. I do everything for everyone. I clean, cook, drive them to wherever they want whenever they want.. I do the shopping, laundry, take out the garbage, all whe taking care of my kid.. but $40 for breakfast is too much... $1500 for a ring is too much.. what is my worth to you all? Do I matter at all? I'm so tired. I just want to lay down somewhere secluded and sink into the moss. Let my soul rest.
