At the weekend i decided to split with my partner. He would rather go out drinking all day than spending time with me and my son (i am pregnant with his second baby) I got pushed too far this weekend when he promised to be home to spend an hour with his 1 year old son before bedtime - he staggered in at 1am and i can not put up with it as it happens everytime he goes out.
I told him i wanted him out of the house (which i own) and he broke down. The thought of not seeing his son everyday broke his heart and he has promised me he will change. I just feel i can not carry on dreading everytime he goes out anymore, not now i have my unborn baby to think about. When he does this i feel he is showing me no respect and knows it works me up (to the point i was short of breathe when he came in at 1am) I can not put my baby in danger
He is currently in the spare room but i cant see this working. I am not happy in the relationship anymore so ended things - i want him to see his son so agreed to him staying in my house as a father to his son rather than a partner. It already feels a bit awkward and i dont know whether i can live like this. I am wondering if it is for the best for him to move out now while my son is still young. Means he will get used to seeing his dad seperately. I just worry he wont bond with his new baby if he is not there.
Has anyone else done this and has it worked out?
