hi everyone, just need to vent my anger to be honest. me and the ex broke up when my son was 7 weeks old because he refused to do anything for the baby and just wasnt stepping up 2 the mark. I was heartbroken but I knew it was for the best. he then didnt contact me for 4 months!! recently got in contact, he tells me.it was the worst time of his life away from us and hes really grown up and begged me for a 2nd chance 2 put things right. stupidly I let my guard down and agree to meet up for the day so he can see his son and tell him that at the moment it would be stupid to jump back into a relationship and lets just see if we can get on for the babas sake and maybe in time we could rebuild what we had but there allot of making up to do... he shows up half drunk from going out clubbing all night, with a love bite on his neck, obv im upset but I don't let him see that, he then Carries on with the same old shit, refusing to dobanything, even hokd his child who he hasnt seen in months!!!! just wish he stayed away. or that I didnt agree. just lonely I suppose :(

hi penny sorry to hear about the bad experience, just give your love and care to yourself and your baby and try and avoid him for a while, things will get better, i'm sure he will regret his stupidness at some point in his life, by which time you will have moved on and found someone better!

Oh I'm sorry. But you know you did the right thing. You gave him his chance and he failed. Now you can move on with the clear knowledge that you did the right thing. I think sometimes you can start to doubt yourself but he's now proved that he's not worthy of the title father. Your dd deserves someone better and I hope when the times right you meet that person.

FWIW my dsis has the most bastardy ex who should barely be allowed to breath. But she has met and married the most wonderful man who is a proper dad to her dc.
