I'm going to bail on hanging with my boyfriend
Why would you skip out on your boyfriend?
Well, for one thing, he can never carry on a conversation.
I'm sorry to hear you two are struggling. He is still your boyfriend, so why not talk to him about things he may be excited about? See if that could spark a conversation.
He's boring.
If you really feel this way about him, then at least show up and tell him what's going on. Don't just leave him hanging!
