Relationship Stress / by strongbutconfused1

...See more Long story not sure where to begin. Our relationship has rarely been ours. I have 2 kids, his ex (20yr Age Gap) was pregnant when we got together, his step father passed, and his mother passed all within the first 14 months of our relationship. Shortly after my bfs sister, who lived with his grandparents, moved out of state. We then slowly started taking care of them. First by going over once a week and as their health declined we eventually moved in with them, that was 2 years ago. Since then they have both passed and he lost 3 other family members in the past year. (No one from covid) We had ups and downs in our relationship he moved out 2 different times, both times moved back. I was hesitant to move in to his grandparents with him because of that. Since his grandparents passed he's suppose to get the house. Him and I arranged their after death plans and hired an attorney to come to the house and do their trust. Now his estranged Aunt and Uncle are suing us for elder fraud and contesting the will. I'm 49 he is 33. I could've spent the last 9 years with a man who was more established in his life but I fell hard for this guy and have given him all the support, trust, loyalty and love a woman can give a man. Now he's pushing me away. Picking fights etc. There are a more details, with 9 years of history, but this is the micro version of our relationship. Please feel free to ask me questions or send advice. My thoughts, he's overwhelmed, he feels guilty for what we're going through and would feel better but having to worry about me too. Today he threw swords though accusing me of treating him like a kid and saying we have nothing in common. Which I call bs, we use to watch movies together all the time, we just went to Vegas and a concert for 4 days and he kept saying it was the best time in a long time. (We haven't done much in the last 2 years while living with his grandparents.) Anyway can't wait to hear from some of you. Thanks 😊
