"[My boyfriend] while being incredibly kind, smart, and witty...has no ambition to do...anything!...We've been together for three years, and he still hasn't really done anything to seek treatment for his mental health struggles. He's very intelligent when it comes to certain things, but when it comes to "life admin" stuff, he's completely incompetent. He always supports me and goes along with what I want to do, but I'm getting tired of having to run his life for him, too. ...I feel stuck. I love him, and I love experiencing new things with him. But I am tired of dragging him to do anything (sometimes literally)...When I've tried to date more ambitious guys, their personalities turn me off. At the same time, it's kind of a turn-off to be "better" than my partner...Do I keep towing him along behind me or leave him in the dust?"
I've been in a similar situation as the question writer, and it's SO incredibly draining. It's so important to prioritize your own happiness and to try to get clear !
