I don't know what to do anymore

I've been with my bf for a few years now. He's never been good at holding down a job. He's had maybe 7 since we've been together. I'd say about 5 of those jobs he's gotten because someone helped him. He never stays very long at a job and sometimes it's been a few years before he gets another. I know that I should have left him years ago, but I had a few things holding me back. I don't have any family or friends that I could stay with(I do have one friend that offered, but she still lives with family and I honestly don't want to be a burden). I have no car, I don't have any money saved up and I don't know what to do? I currently live in the city he grew up in. I feel helpless, stuck and basically feel like a loser that stays with someone like him. He's changed alot from the way he used to be, but unfortunately not in the way that counts. He's a gamer and will do nothing but play his game all day. I've tried numerous times to talk to him, tell him how I feel and yes he'd stop playing his game and go find a job but then he'd go right back to doing it again. I know I'm wasting my time on him thh I just need that push. I need advice from someone that's been in my situation hell I just need someone to yell at me and give me a reality check because I'm fed up and I keep telling myself I'm going to leave him and I never do
