Hi. I need some advice with regards to my current relationship. We met 2.5 years ago through a dating website and I fell pregnant with our daughter within 6 weeks. I feel our realtionship has become stale and we really don't have much in common. There is no support for us as a family and our income is low. My partner is fianancilly supportive of us as a family as he can be and I have been supportive to him. I am now a stay at home mum as child care is too expensive for me to work in my old job. I am quite frustrated with not having identity and my day revolves around cleaning, washing and toddler groups which i must say are becoming increasingly tiresome. I don't feel the connection with my partner anymore and he does not make any effort in which do anything and would rather just sit in front of the TV everynight! I do occassionally see friends including mum friends though i feel my life is very unfullfilled. I have retrained in other occupations, however to start again involve taking low paid positions and i'm back to child care fee costs problems. i feel like leaving my partner though the thought of the benefits system horrorfies me.
