I been with my bf for 3yrs and we have a baby together.we been having problems for awhile now,problems that I feel like anyone with half a brain could catch on to. He don’t call me when he’s out with friends,n I don’t mean call me every hr.but we have a kid and I expect for him to at least check up on us.I’m always calling first becuz if I didn’t he could go days without hearing from me.he say he wana marry me but idk.when where together things r great but once he’s gone I’m outa sight outa mind.I’m trying so hard with him and when I get upset he gets mad at me and flip it on me like he’s the victim.he don’t even try to make things righths just let it be so I piece the rElationship together.he gets paranoid and insecure thinking I’m cheatin and idk if it’s guilt cuz he could be cheating or because he know he’s not doing right.I really want us to work but I feel like he’s taking me for granted.what should I do because I really need Advice?
I spoke to him about this plenty of times and he’s says he’s gona change but it haven’t happened yet,he’s a great dad whenever our baby need something he’s there and he spend time with her when he take her on weekends,he just suck as a bf and Iknow he’s a good man and he wana change but something not allowing it. Idk if I’m settling because we have a kid but is hard finding someone who have the same values and morals as I do.and I feel like I’m giving him my all and I’m receiving nothing back.

My husband has said he thinks he might have married me out of guilt. We had a child prior to marriage. He doesn’t know if he loves me or wants our marriage to work. How can we rejuviante our marriage and work through his feelings to save our marriage???

Would you stay?
I found an email from 4 years ago in a folder he saved to his ex-wife pouring out his remorse/guilt that he left her and the kids when they were very young. He said tears were streaming down his face. I always knew he had guilt but not enough to say this. It is a long long story and I won’t get into the exact details but when I told him to get to know his kids again little by little he started to call. They live 6 hours from us. His children were 20 and 18 back then not 7 and 8 years old. He told them he remarried and his ex wrote him back saying he should have never told them. They didn’t even know they had a 1/2 sister that lived in another state who is 18 now. This child is not from me but from his ex girlfriend who died in 1993.
But he writes to his ex-wife the email I follishly sent to our kids, was, in hindsight, very insensitive and way too informative… What on earth was I thinking? I just thought it was best to come clean but now I realize the potentially damaging information I foolishly shared with them.. I guess I will remain a fool until the day I die since I have such difficulty distinguishing right from wrong. She is 8 years older than my husband and she definitely made him feel even more guilty then ever.
She never remarried. She has been going on and on in her life that he will go back to her.
He got an email birthday card from her saying Hopefully we will one day celebrate anniversaries, birthdays as a family.
They can’t stand me and never met me. I also found something to his mother who lives out of state and is 83 years old after the father died that in her will she will make his ex-wife the executor. (see my husband is away for the next 5 years). He will be 55 when he is home and his ex will be 62.
I have been married to him for 15 years. I have all his things at the apartment. I have his visit list with all the dates they go to see him which is very rarely and his kids go up there with her. I am up to see him all the time. He calls me 30 times a month. We are able to share intimate moments together. Now this.
He is a very strong man & even strong men can get teary eye and last week he said to me god forbid something happened to you that would be it for me. I couldn’t handle another love lost like I did with my beloved Linda which I knew he loved very much.
But he tells his mother in a letter in 12/2008 after his dad dies I want you to leave the urn that you and dad are in with (his ex-wifes) name and have a spot for me and my brother. Well where does that leave me?
He always said I want to be buried with you or be with you in the same urn.
So here he is telling his 83 year old mom a different story from me. They all speak and no one speaks to me. It is just unreal.
What do I do from here? 15 years of wasted marriage? I have been with him through so much.
I am in charge of his account, his money, there is money in the bank so that is no problem. But also he wrote to his exwife (referring to her smoking and having 2 heart attacks) I want you to live a long well deserved life and be there to see how I turn all this mess around someday…
She even wrote me an email 2 years ago saying you will never know the truth or he can say whatever he wants and when he called me that night I was crying and he wrote to her in this letter what did you write to her, she was crying and it took me an hour to calm her down. My husband said to her I am very insecure and why is she making it harder for him to get to know his children.

What do you make of all this?
He wasn’t married to the lady that has his child in florida. He was married to the lady in the early 80′s with his two oldest kids.

I’m almost 40 and have been in about 10 serious relationships, including two marriages withing those.
Each break up was hard to take. Even the couple that I broke off and the added guilt that I gave up or something.
My problem is that it takes my years to get over some people.
I just can’t let go of the past no matter what I do.
I know many people will go about up to 6 months and then move on, but my situation seems chronic.
Does anyone else have this problem?
