My boyfriend and I have been dating for coming up to a year and a half. He’s a few months younger than me but we’re both 20 at the moment. I just graduated from college and have started my first job. I have a good salary and am starting to get on my feet as an adult, my boyfriend has had difficult few years and he’s had a lot of stuff to work through.

Before the difficult circumstances started he left HS early because he wasn’t enjoying it, he started studying something at college but dropped out of that because he wasn’t enjoying it either. Then some stuff went down with his family and his dad left him and his mum. He started studying something else last school year but didn’t really study and failed most of his classes.

This year he says he can’t afford to study and he wants to take a year off to earn some money and pay back some debts, maybe reevaluate what he’s studying again because there aren’t many job prospects for what he was studying. He’s taken on some extra hours at his job which he hates to earn some money. He always talks about hating his job and wanting to find a new one but in his spare time he just watches TV and plays computer games.

I love him so much and I am a very loyal person but recently there have been two other guys who’ve been flirting with me and I like it. I’m so confused by this as I never wanted to be that kind of person. I’d never act on anything but I don’t even want to be the kind of person who looks at anyone but the man I love. I feel incredibly guilty about it. Both these other guys are older a little older than me and have their lives pretty much on track and I wonder if that has something to do with how I’m feeling?
