I don't boss him around. Not at all. I'll say hey, there's this great thing happening this weekend. Wanna come? When he says no I say OK and then I go without him.
I think he is jealous of me. He makes a lot of little mean comments. I ignore them. I don't want him to make me be as unhappy as he is. He's been calling me a hobo lately because I don't have a job and spent the summer backpacking. Now home, I'm busy with volunteer work, a part time job, starting my own freelancing business and in the middle of the interview process for a full-time, high-paying job. I'm not a hobo.
I think his mean comments are because he feels stuck in a disappointing life and can't see a way out. I want him to be happy like he used to be, but I can't even talk to him about it. There was a time I was really depressed and he kicked me in the pants to go get help. I can't even bring myself to do the same for him.
