Want a new dp

45 replies

Brozzer · 15/01/2005 22:45

I'm so bored and fed up with dp.
He would watch football 24/7 if only they'd broadcast it through the night.
He patronises me.
He doesn't love me any more.
I want a new man!!!!!! I am growing old with this one.

Not a bad idea Lunavix! Do you want to start?

You lot are funny.

We have these pathetic rows all the time and I just want to say 'Go f* yourself' and just leave. Forever. Like pre-baby days when you can dump crap boyfriends and move on.

I suppose lots of people tolerate partners they don't love for the sake of children.

I'm a jolly one tonight.

are you just fed up with him today, or most days?

The majority of days, certainly.

He's great with ds which is obviously a massive plus point.
But there's no spark any more for me. We don't have sex. We say quite awful things to each other in the heat of the moment. I can't stay with this man for years and years, it would be so wrong.

Luna

I'm sorry - you've clearly had an awful time with yours. What went wrong?
Mine is such a pain in the arse. I'm so bored. We've talked about going to a counsellor and he thinks that's a good idea. The problem is that I simply don't think he's the man I should be with. Counselling can't make me fall in love with him.
It's so sad really.
I work PT and have a huge crush on one of my bosses. I while away many a happy hour thinking about him.
What a life!

Very similar - have 10mth ds - but we were only together for two months before I got pregnant by mistake. Oops. We said we'd share the burden equally. Unsurprisingly the pressures of parenthood have got to us. He is so good with ds and does so much bottle-making, nappy-changing blah blah - but can't help regularly throwing it in my face and saying he is under-appreciated etc etc and does 'too much'.
I hate this because his career (we work in the same field) continues uninterrupted whilst I struggle to do two days a week and am knackered all the time.
Like you I will be seeing how things go and wondering how i wound up with this boy...how the hell do you leave anyway? I don't know how people manage it unless they're really rich.

Brozzer and Lunavix, how sad to read you are both unhappy and feel incompatible with your DP's. If you are unsure, ask yourselves how you would feel if you logged into say DadsNet and you knew their chat name and looked up a thread they started which said they would like to leave their DP and are only staying because you are a good mother.

If it would make you feel sick to the stomach maybe you can revive your feelings. Don't know your situations, ages, etc but really hope you can work things out.

Brozzer, does your boss know you have a crush on him?

PS There are dull/irritating/infuriating moments in EVERY relationship.
