I've only been seeing my boyfriend for about 4 months but we're really close and get on great. But.. well he's 18 and he's just got this job which requires him to drive so he's starting driving lessons on saturday which is tearing my heart up because i've always told myself i would never, ever date a driver. I've gone on and on about how much i hate driving and how more people should stick to bikes to him in the past and now he's come out with this even though he knows how much protecting the environment means to me. So should i dump him? Driving is completely against my morals but i do love him a lot
How many job offers does he have? I mean, it's not like he's stealing, or working at a strip club (which would be a moral dilemma for some, not for others), fooling around with anyone else, etc... Part of the problem with responding is that you don't specify whether he's been applying for jobs for months and this is the first offer he's gotten or whether he specifically sought out a job as a driver. If it's the first case, well, I'd say encourage him to seek a new job when possible, but get over it for now. If it's the second case, well, that's something nobody but you can answer.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA! (I mean that in the best way possible) Please tell me you're joking. What do you have against drivers? Would you rather your boyfriend be a bum and sit at home on his butt and never have a job? If it bothers you that much, get rid of him. But, if you love and care for him....stick around. Trust me....it's not that big a deal.
Yes, I agree; 0 tolerance isn't the best policy in cases like this either, imo. I suggest either: encouraging him to get a different job and state your reasons again, or if this is the first offer he's had, try and support him the best way you an, but if it really is to much to deal with, either encourage him to get a different job soon as he can, or move on. Honestly, though, if it's the first offer he's got I'd leave it be, at least he has a job, right? Hope that helps and good luck.
Turning down this job wont make any difference cus someone else will just take his place.. people will always drive cars and do things to pollute the environment so i wouldn't worry id stick by him and be happy that he has a job and that he isn't jus bumming about : )
Dont get me wrong, because im the queen of dating older guys lol, but your 16 and in school and hes 18 and needs to start getting ready for his LIFE. If he is happy driving a truck all day and it supports his needs, then who are you to tell him that he cant? I mean that in the best way possible... If you two are as happy as your wanting it to sound, then i really dont think something as innocent as 'driving' would honestly come between you two. If its an issue with you though, then definitly let him go. You shouldnt have to deal with something that you are strongly opposed to, just as he shouldnt feel guilty for having that type of job. Good luck with everything!
I would dump him so fast and go marry some hot Amish guy who has a kick ass buggy! Fuck him and that driving!
i dont own a car or drive one .....ive driven a million miles but just hate odious cars and what they do in the world ....needless to say that this has gotten me nowhere with girls .....do u women who hate cars have a club ?...cause i need to get the props i deserve for this .
Me either makno-I ride my bike-take cabs-buses. The money I save I use for going out. Cars suck and so does all the shit that goes with them too.
