I have been in a relationship for 2 years. He has one child 50/50 I have 2 kids fulltime. I have always talked about the future with him not so much him. His mother lives with him. 2 and a half years ago her husband and her separated and she won't move out. The other night I said will she move out so we can move fwd in our relationship. He owns the house. He said no. He said we will rent and she stays there. He is a serial runner. Everyrime we fight he runs home to mum. I ended up saying to him so she will be staying there for good and he said yes. So I ended it and he packed his atuff and left and never heard from him again. I have not been able to go over their most of the relationship and haven't been there for 12 mths cause she is not a nice person. I guess I'm question ing if I made the right decision or not. I'm 34 and wanting to commitment and a family. She is not ill works and is capable of having her own place but she does everything for her son kinds like a wife. They can't go a day without talking through the day even though they live together. Advice plz

Jasmine, why do you keep getting back together with him? Where is your self-respect? A few months ago he said that he didn’t see a future with you and never wanted to live with your children. He said you were a convenience.

Please do not reunite for the 21st time. You need to break this toxic cycle. Your children do not deserve to be exposed to this dysfunctional relationship model.
