I moved to ottawa from vancouver to live with my boyfriend, who took a job here who is also from vancouver..
Neither of us knew anyone here, nor had family. We ended up living in a tiny bubble for 4 years. just the two of us. I learned to cook to save us money, and stopped talking to my friends in Vancouver. We fought alot about everything, but stayed together because it seemed each other was all we had. We lived very poor for 3 years in hull and never went out because HE was saving to buy a home. Boy did I hate that.
One day 6 months ago he told me to go to vancouver and not come back until he decided if he wanted to be with me or not. I had no savings, a job or any assets, I literally had the rug pulled out from under me. 3 weeks later he tells me he cant live with out me and wants to be with me forever. While i was there i realized what kind of person i had become an emotionally dependant, housewife and absolutely hated it.
We did not file our taxes as common law, and I thought i could not recieve anything from this guy. If i leave by the way, he says he will be keeping MY DOG. which i brought into the relationship.
Just wanted a second opinion to see if i could actually do anything or if its something that isnt worth pursuing.
