I have been with my Boyfriend for almost 2 years. At the beginning of our realationship it was perfect, then when we moved in together he told me that he was stuck between me and his wife. I was not upset but he shouldn't have asked me to be his girlfriend if he wanted to be with her.

Well after that I told him I wwas leaving and he said no, I don't want you to leave, I love you. I was just going to leave because we were at the early stages of our ralationship where I just loved him but wasn't 'in love' with him yet. So that went through.

Last year in September we had a baby together, and everything was going great and last Saturday night he said he got an email from his wife saying she is finishing school in 2 weeks and was going to come here to be with him. I lost it, here it is a year and a half past and this comes up again.

We slept on it and that morning I told him if he wanted to say bye to his son before I found a place to stay he should. He said no I don't want you to go. I told him the only way I was staying here If he ends all ties with her through email and through the phone and he gets a divorce because I am tired of our relationship being in jepardy when it comes to her.

She lives in Australia they haven't seen each other in like 4 years and I told him I am here, she is there, and I am real and my feelings are real. I told him he has to give me security and he needs to call her and tell her while I am there that it's over and he's getting a divorce because I have had it.

I read a email from her replying to him and it said she had a girlfriend and he would love her and at the end it said you know why Pam freaks out?

What am I to do? He has her number now and hasn't called her yet. What does that mean "you know why pam freaks out"? He had to say I freaked out or something, but I will be so lost without him when he told me that I was so close to totally losing it. I really need a shoulder to cry on or a great person to talk with. Thank you for hearing me out:)

Even though it can hurt, sometimes honesty is the best policy.

The only question that matters is not what it best for you and your feelings, but what is best for your child.

Plain and simple you had a child with someone who is not totally available to either of you. You must now make a commitment to your child that the only decisions you will make from now on will solely be based on what is best for their sake, not yours. This can be painful, but what is best for your child is usually what is best for you too.

Look in your heart and you will know the answer to your questions.

I hope this doesn't seem too harsh, maybe tough love for a fellow woman. God bless


 
Never easy... POSTED:

I am very sorry to hear about your particular predicament, these situations are never easy, and yours is particularly complicated because children are involved.

All we can do is to be here for you, nothing more, advice won't help you, it's gone a little far for that now.

If it does come down to him not being able to make a decision one way or the other though, you need to be strong, you need to get out of this situation and be on your own, with your child. If he cannot decide and make a clean break, you cannot stay in this situation, it will slowly wear you down and destroy you from the inside out.

You did the right thing by telling him that you will only stay with him if he commits to you and ends ties with his wife, but you need to stay with it and not change your mind based on his persuasions if you want him to take you seriously.

Hang in there, we're here for you.
