31F girlfriend with a back injury working fulltime/ picking up extra shifts. 29M boyfriend recently fired student.

Title reads as it May.

Back in December I was Tboned by a delivery truck causing scars to my face and an injury in my back. I have a misaligned pelvis and a leg sprain.

My boyfriend has lived with me for 4 months so far he’s been a student with the understanding he would be returning to work last Friday when his boss called him in to the office to dismiss him for having a messy work van and not returning the company Gas card on his departure to school.

He asked me how I felt when that happened I said “very stressed out” he yelled at me for being unsupportive and got mad I refused to continue to talk to him as I was focused on working as he told me in a phone call.

He’s been in a bad attitude, he’s been slack around the house studying and in class from 7-6:30 on weekends and weekdays. One day last week I rounded up 4 mugs, 3 ketchup plates and it caused a fight. Today he snapped at me saying “not trying to be a D*ck but that’s why libraries are silent when I went to give my cat a treat in the office after coming home from a grocery store run.

Tonight I ate dinner alone he asked me if we wanted to talk, I said you want silence don’t you?! He stood up took his dinner into the office instead of an apology or gentle explanation and now I really dont even care to communicate.

I work 5 days a week as a school custodian and I’ve taken on an additional hospital shifts doing sanitation like I did to build savings this generates additional income through the course of his final block at school. Half the time I need his help out of the car, I cry half the night in back pain and He

As of lately Monday he does his test and Tuesday he still won’t have a job.

He gave me $20 for his grocery requests today I spent $120 on what we needed also.

Do you think this relationship is unfixable?

Do you think I should move on?

He’s never been like this up until he moved in I don’t know if it’s a strain of bad luck, bad circumstances or what but I lost the visuals of him being a mature providing partner are gone and being injured and forced to provide for 2 sucks.
