Pressured into having a baby by older partner

courtneyk92 · 02/08/2025 22:03

I've been seeing a 45 year old man, I am a 32 year old female. He looks after me so well. I've been dating him since 2023, and just these last few months gotten serious where we've moved in together. He has 3 grown children, all 20+ (had them young). I have a 8 and 6 year old who he adores. He really wants more kids, since he met me he has said "every single day I vision what our children will look like" , "my dream is to have a baby with you", "are you prepared to give me a baby", " I want lots of babies with you" and just begs me for a baby constantly. to the extent he keeps taking the Condom off.. and purposely ... inside me and I keep taking the morning after pill and its making me so sick. I feel so pressured because he gets moody if I say no :( any advice ?

This cant be real.
Why would you have a man like that around your children .

And claim “he looks after me so well”…

Ditch the fucker,

First post nails it. He's not bothered about what you want and feel at all.

he also keeps doing me anally even when I say no, and cry. I am going to leave him

Also rape...

I'm so sorry OP... @courtneyk92

Please get away from him. Phone women's aid for help as he's done a number on you moving in...

I'm also worried for your kids. He may be a direct risk to them too.

MeganM3 · 02/08/2025 22:55

Is this from another culture? It sounds really really weird. Controlling. Take your kids and get out of there. You’re still young and will find someone who’s a much better fit for you.

Thank god for that. He is abusive. Get him the fuck away from your children.

and ffs get some counselling. You started the post by saying He looks after me so well and finished the paragraph by describing how he regularly sexually assaults you.

That’s what you think “looking after you” means? How can you let this man stay in your house, abusing you, and your children learning - from you - that rape, control, bullying and threats are actually acceptable?

If your daughter wrote this thread, what would you say?

Get the police involved before there’s no way out.

tara66 · 02/08/2025 23:01

He sounds revolting!

Givenupshopping · 02/08/2025 23:01

You've said you're going to leave him OP, please don't change your mind whatever crap and bullshit he comes out with. This man is dangerous!!

And comments like these are the reason a lot of women don’t report rape, they are scared of not being believed

arethereanyleftatall · 02/08/2025 23:04

Oh op - he is absolutely awful.

im so happy you’re leaving him, but PLEASE do some work on yourself before dating again. Freedom program, women’s aid etc.
women with a healthy mindset, which you will have after you’ve ditched this rapist and given yourself some time, would have ditched him when he mentioned having babies far far too soon in your relationship. It’s creepy.

eone · 02/08/2025 23:05

Another poster here saying get out.
Start taking contraceptive pill ASAP so he doesn't trap you.

arethereanyleftatall · 02/08/2025 23:06

What did you actually mean by ‘treats you so well?’ If you mean financially, then that doesn’t give someone the right to rape you. You don’t owe him that regardless of how he treats you.

HeyThereDelila · 02/08/2025 23:07

Dump him immediately. Taking the condom off without permission is rape. He’s forcibly trying to get you pregnant. This is abuse and controlling behaviour.

Leave with your children and get out. Now. Do not go back.

Ginnygi · 02/08/2025 23:10

This is abuse...

HeyThereDelila · 02/08/2025 23:11

Also you should go to the police.

JMSA · 02/08/2025 23:14

Umm, you can’t be serious.
You and your children are living with a rapey bastard.
Please get out.

UrbanOasis · 02/08/2025 23:17

Horrible. Leave him

Vaxtable · 02/08/2025 23:20

Just leave asap

allthemiddlechildrenoftheworld · 02/08/2025 23:24

@courtneyk92 that is called stealthing and can actually be classed as rape!!!! why are you with someone like that?????

PoliteEagle · 02/08/2025 23:26

sorry for sounding harsh, but you are an object to him, not a human being. he uses your body for sex without caring whether you want or not and he wants to use your body for procreating. Get rid asap.

FloofyKat · 02/08/2025 23:27

Treats you so well?
clearly, he doesn’t.
I’m glad to read you’re planning to leave him!
Please do so safely, and make sure you have lots of support in place.

Mumtobabyhavoc · 02/08/2025 23:32

Run.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 02/08/2025 23:32

Removing the condom is so fucked up.
Have you told him that you don't want a baby? The communication is miles apart.
