in this situation...
We are both late 20s, have a 3 year old son together. We live abroad with literally no family/ close friends support network. The birth of a child caused some massive strains on our relationshiop to a point we officially divorced last year! Got back together though.. However it all feels so FAKE and I feel miserable living with him. I have a good job and money etc and would probably be able to raise my child on my own. BUT I cant stand a thought of him not having a father's figure in his life. He really adores his daddy!!.. It would be so much easier if I had my family around however for forseeable future we are staying where we are at the moment. What should I do? Should I stay for the sake of having a family and at least "some" sort of support I get from him or just leave him and be on my own with a small child. I dont know how long I can live with someone that I dont feel happy with. Dont think he feels happy either as i.e. today he spent ALL day watching tv while me and my boy did some shopping, went to the park etc. Its difficult as there is really no good reason to break up now - we dont fight anymore (we used to before the divorce!!) , he doesnt drink, isnt violent or lazy so it seems like a sensible to stay together as he is the father of my son..... I am lost so lost and have no one else to talk to about this :(
