Especially when you live together and share a child. I know it's a rough topic, but I'm mainly seeking advice. After being together for so long, he knows what to say and do to make me happy in the moment and forget. Now that I finally said I'm done, I'm not sure where to go from here, or if I will just break down and stay for the sake of my daughter. We already talked about just living together until she's 18, but I know eventually she will get smart enough to know that I'm not happy. Help..

So its all his fault.

Yet here you are on a dating site with a profile looking for someone else already, before you've even left the guy.

Plus you have a picture of you holding this baby, while showing off your cleavage all in the same picture.


well, I don't know his side of the story....So, I have to go by your character analysis.


Consider what I'm seeing here....you don't have much character.

So...I'm putting the blame on you at this point.

I can't support putting blame on anyone.. theres missing info why this thing isn't working out.

Stop allowing him to manipulate you.

Make the decision act upon it.

Living together till she is 18 will just keep you as you are.

i have yet to see a woman say its her fault..no way,butyou dont just give up an move on at least sign of trouble,i have had 2 die on me from cancer..1990 an 2013..try an work it out,an dont take advice of way younger women who are askin advice all the time.

She literally deleted as I was typing this.

How unfortunate.

Some of you guys were such jerks to her u know who u are. Good job. No empathy

Blame the victim, typical

Really? I'm a single mother, divorced, don't get much child support (could've gotten way more), never been on housing, never gotten free health care or been on welfare, never got free college, have been at my same job for almost 20 years.
Oh, by the way, I'm also a veteran, Marine Corps.
*I* pay my child's school fees, school lunches, volleyball costs, summer camps, buy the snacks for the out of town band trip, etc. *I* do that, no one else. Meanwhile, he moved to another state and does nothing. But that's fine. I reap the rewards of parenthood and, by his own choice, he does not.
Luckily I'm not as bitter as you are. Just because you like to lump every woman into the same catagory doesn't mean they are.

You want a cookie, a medal, or a chest to pin it all on. I know, let's get you a cross. That way, everytime you think you deserve something for everything YOU do on your own is actually worth commendations, you can nail yourself to it.

And at your age, you never actually served in combat, so your Marine Corps accolades doesn't impress me.

If anything, you are doing everything a MAN was expected to do, before the bra-burning second wave of Feminism.

And honestly, with your arrogance and delusion to somehow think you are the "norm" of single motherhood, despite statistics proving otherwise, I would have ran from your a** if I were him, too. Then again, I wouldn't have been dumb enough to knock you up, either.

And just like all the single mother statistics that fit into my lumping statement, you still have a failed marriage like most of them do, and you are still a single mother statistic, just like they are. Congratulations, for being part of the problem. Bet you will blame all your marital problems on him, too.

They're not married.
