I'm sorry, but people who procrastinate irk the shit out of me! case in point: my man. June 17th will mark one month…

I hope everything works out for you. I'll keep my fingers crossed and send prayers your way. 😘

oops @brittanyyylynnn

@brittanyyylynn my man is six foot eight so he's able to dunk on the short guys lmao but he's not even going to a D1 school. he and I are going to a community college. but that's complete bullshit. his family should come before a sport. I understand its fun to do and a chance to hang with the guys, but its not a forever thing. I think that's what my man is starting to understand. he knows family comes first and he has to help support and if anything he can call up a few guys on the weekend and shoot hoops. I just don't like how people will brainwash young adults into thinking they are NBA material when they CLEARLY are not

@14emathews at least your boyfriend has some kind of lead in getting somewhere with basketball. My guy never played high school basketball & is WAYY to short for the nba. & says that if he plays a sport in college then he can't have a job as well. Which I think is stupid. But hopefully everything will get better.

@amber.s95 when he's chilling at his house where he currently resides he either plays videogames on his ps3 or watches these annoying YouTube videos. I call them annoying only because when he does spend the night, there's this one jingle that wakes me up every single time as he wakes up earlier than I do -.- I agree though, when he finally gets a job I'll feel so much better. I try not to think about it too much as it stresses me out, but I'm constantly reminded of the fact by my parents who ask about it daily :/ @babymoma its honestly so scary. its crunch time over here and it just feels like he's taking his sweet time about it. @brittanyyylynnn ooooooh my man had these moments where he thought he was NBA material too because one high school coach who is a complete asshole instilled the idea in his mind and just let him run with it. my man is good at basketball, but he's not that good. right now he does have a basketball scholarship for college so he will be playing. he keeps saying that if it comes between him having to get a second job if were struggling too much and him playing basketball, he's going to get a second job because he loves our family more. I just hope he sticks by those words when and if the time comes. I agree with you that babies aren't cheap. my family has either bought the baby everything so far or family friends have given us items. with him not working, he doesn't really have any money to contribute :/

@14emathews I'm in your same situation girl! I mean I'm not as far along as you but my man hasn't had a job in 6 months & doesn't really have plans of getting one. He's stuck on this idea that he's going to be "a professional basketball player" so is only focused on trying to get in school. Which is great, I support that he wants to go to school & play basketball, I just feel like he should at least try to get some type of job as a baby is not cheap & I don't want to have to financially support this baby on my own. Things will start looking up though girl. Just gotta pray & have faith!

i have the same fears. my man has a job and car and all but hes an only child and has had everythjng done for him before i came along and its been a serious process.... and still needs a lot of work😧

At least hes not flat out lazy and just sits around all day playing games or something. Thats a lot of responsibility for someone so young on top of preparing to become a parent. Something will work out when the time is right even tho it seems like it won't. But when he gets a job it will feel like a ton of bricks has been lifted off your shoulders. Even tho its hard not to dont stress too much its not good for baby!

@amber.s95 thank you! :) I do too. it doesn't help that he's currently a parent in the house he lives in...taking care of his mother and his teenage brother. my man cooks, cleans...basically does whatever is asked of him around that house. his mom has been on disability for some time now due to hip pain or something...the doctors have yet to figure out a correct diagnosis. basically, its to the point where his mom lays in bed all day long unless she HAS to drive somewhere, such as picking one son up from school. other than that, she doesn't move. the original plan was he graduates, gets his license and a job preferably within a two week span from graduation and is all moved in in our house. but nope. none of that has happened yet. :/ it freaks me out. I feel bad but at the same time it irritates me as my parents constantly ask daily has he found a job yet? does he have his license? what's taking him so long? so then I breathe down my mans neck and ask the same questions. I feel that as soon as he gets his license and a job I'll be able to sleep better at night and be less stressed than what I've been currently.

it took my boyfriend a little bit to come around and get a steady job after we found out that we were expecting because hes an only child and never had responsibility. I was 6 months pregnant before he got a steady job but now hes doing great. I just had to nag and get irritated a lot. I hope things work out and he finds some motivation fast.
