Choose: Give It Up or Give Him Up
Because the way to make a relationship work is to accept our partner with love. Not to mold them into someone who we think we'd like better.
People rarely stay molded, you see.
So you really have those two choices, and the length of time you have in this relationship is NOTHING compared to what you'll have into it if you decide that you just.can't.stand.it, down the road.
You drive your car, he drives his. You set limits--if you want to burn the plastic off the copper, it's not my issue, unless you are doing it where I have to breathe the fumes. If you want to throw away paper and cans and carrot peels when there is a recycling barrel right here, go for it, but YOU will be paying for the garbage collection, because YOU are generating the bulk of the garbage. And then, let it go. You are his lover, not his mother, not his boss.
If you can't let it go...then you have the other option.
