What's your opinion? How to handle this situation? |
I dated a guy while he was getting divorced. He was married for 6 years and with the woman for 10. They have a 5 year old daughter. Our relationship lasted about a year and ended because I got pregnant. We had a little back and forth before that and I left him. He wanted me back so we got back together after two weeks separated. Sex is unbelievable between us. When we first found out we drifted apart; I admit that I put a lot of pressure on him to decide on what to do but it only lasted two weeks. I was and still am terrified. He first said he will be responsible for the baby, and then separated with bear min contact (very few phone calls). He did go to an ultrasound with me and seemed very excited. But things went cold again for a while. Now he's complainting that I don't call him enough. I'm not sure what he wants me to do. I get the feeling that he wants me to stay close to him to try and keep in touch. Almost as if he wanted me to try and initiate the "conversation" about us. But I'm terrified. I don't know if he's ready and I don't know if I should be with him after all that's happened. I don't even know if he cares or he's acting out of guilt and shame. I know there's no magic ball out there to tell me what's going to happen in between us but I stopped trying to have a relationship with him because he put so much resistance. I'm divorced too and I have my own demons. I'm not trying to keep him out of the baby's life but he knows that I've always been open and honest with regards to the pregnancy. I also know that he's very concerned with the financial issues that having a new baby will bring. I love him and I wish things were to work but I'm scared of saying this because I don't know where he stands and he acts so immaturely at times that I fear doing more harm than good by pressing on a serious conversation with him. Any advice? It's understandable that you are scared. I would be too. It's hard enough being in a committed relationship and having an unplanned pregnancy but this guy has proven to be a confused person. As a singlemom, you cannot count on this man. He has proven to be inconsistent. The best thing to do is just proceed as you would without him but definitley keep the communication open. I wouldn't go out of my way to be the initiator all the time though. He is going through a confusing time and that may not end for a while. See how he is when the baby comes, that will be the true test of dependability. Honestly, I think you need to speak to someone about the relationship. See a counselor. This isn't a pregnancy question. At the same time, stressing out about a man will stress out the baby as any stress will and you don't want that. Talk to him and see what he wants pregnacy is a very emotional business and you dont want him pulling you in and then pushing you out. Let him know this is no longer about u two its about the baby I would just come straight out & ask him what he wants out of the relationship. Just tell him that you're not putting any pressure on him, you just want to see where you stand. |
