I finished with him, planning baby alone!

I finished with the man I was the ow for. The advice. On here was deeply profound and allowed me to see the relationship for what it really was- lies and lies, topped with a side order of lies.
He lied saying he was single, he lied again saying they were just living together for financial reasons and probably lied again when he said he was trapped in a loveless and sexless relationship.
Worse than that I lied to myself, I told myself I was who he loved and once things were sorted I would get to be with him.
I met him today and told him I was not prepared to wait for him I grow a pair, I know he has been on dating sites and messaging other women to get a second ow and our relationship is over.
He left after crying and saying he didn't want to loose me and text me later saying he knows I deserve better and that he loves me so much but he will never accept the baby we have conceived and will never be in it's life.
I replied telling him I'm sure I have enough love that our child won't miss out and I promise to be the best mother I can and taise our child well. He responded that I should look after myself and our baby.
I then deleted his number and all previous contact.
It was so hard and I've cried all day but I have to go NC or I will cave.
I feel so sick with morning sickness and I just need a huge cuddle. :-(
I know this is my own fault for staying with him once I found out he was married, I was just so devastated thy everything I thought we had was a huge pile of lies, that come so easily from his lips.
No point to this post really except to just let it all out . X

Op- I would recommend deferring any action till after the baby is born. Block him, get support around you for your pregnancy and birth and deal with everything when you've recovered from the birth would be my advice.

Thanks guys, will do that now. I can't believe I've been such a fool but my baby is what matters now. I know I can give this baby enough love for both parents and my other doc have a great co- parenting relationship with their father who even a my ex will treat this baby with love too. I actually feel lucky and blessed to be given this baby as it's helping me to be strong. Thankyou so so much for all of your advice- it means so much.

God, he's a real prince among men, isn't he? Doesn't want to lose you, "loves" you but doesn't want a bar of his own child?

FUck him off VERY HARD. Harder than you already have. What an utter bastard he is Angry

Find your own rage at how shabbily he is behaving - all he wants from you is sex and possibly company - that's it. Nothing meaningful. What a shallow tosser.

And yes, keep your child well away from the sperm donor - no one needs that level of selfish shallowness in their life. :(

He could have offered to pay you maintence every month without his wife finding out. That could been cash in your account it wouldn't even had to leave a paper trail. Cash through letterbox even. But no it's can't give you anything via offical means so nothing at all!

That's just an excuse he can't just walk away and leave you to it. How do you know he's not done this before? How does he think you will manage to work and pay childcare and everything else or will he expect you to live off benefits and struggle until the child is at school? That didn't sounds like love to me.

Will you put his name on birth certificate?

Personally I think it's selfish not to chase him for money, even if you don't want it the child deserves it. Save it in a account for him or her. What happens if god forbid something happened to you..?? Your child would need that money in the future

Also I'm sorry your never comprised his family he did with his dirty cheating ways.

You child deserves better. Get him or her there money.
