I think you are better off with B anyways. Cheaters are pieces of shit and should not be one to attempt a long term relationship. Never work with them.

B might be struggling right now but he’s, from what I can see in this very high level description, a more honest man. If he treats you right that’s the most important and he works so you also should not become a financial burden to him. Don’t spend money on stupid things like purses, shoes all that stuff. Yes you can get them here and there but there are so many more important things in life that should be where money is spent and saved. Dates are good but not every night or every weekend. Go do things that don’t cost money but allow you to spend time together. These are the important things in life.
