Okay this si a bit out drawn but do you think I hve doen the correct thing... I have been with amn for 3 years and we share a 1 year old son. He sold his house 2 years ago so we could live as family- my family and his son and him. We made an extra bedroom and had lots done to the house... as time was coming to move hedecided he wanted to rent as his son was not ready. I said fine and he rented for 6 mths then another 6 months. We were on and off but mainly on as he is a sweet caring man. Just before Christmas lots happened and things turned nasty and told him he either make a comitmnet to me and his son or I have to move on. He now has athritus and a council bungalow as unbale to walk much at all and is settled. Although he says he loves and cares and will do anything for me or his family I see him once maybe twice aaweek and he says he wants to build our relationship gradual as lots of things been said and done some very hurtful. To be honest thoughi love him, find him very attractive and when with him time flies by but last night i said after i had been drinking some wine I am moving on (no more men lol) but want stability and a little comitmnet as our son deserves better do you not agree. His reply was he will not stand in my way and wishes me happiness but he will always be there.

not much point to it really but think i have doen the correct thing dont you.. it will be hard alone properly but he never lived with us anyway.

Thanks

It looks as though he doesn't want a proper relationship (or is incapable of it). It must be sad for you to realise that but, yes, you & your son do deserve stability - and you deserve a chance to heal, to put your energies into yourself and your little family, and to be open to people who know how to 'do' love instead of just saying it.

You're already a single parent, to all intents & purposes. This just sets you free to be an even better (happier) one!

You have done the right thing
