I had shut down emotionally to my partner if that’s what he can be called who lives with me . Firstly I know I have had a bout of bad health for a few years I ask for prayers to be in control of this and to be mentally and physically stronger to deal with the problems that arise in my life . His father took ill and he went to stay with him overnight as we had a mouse problem . I felt abandoned and let down . He started to come and go as he pleased and I became stronger and happier when he wasn’t there . I realised his presence in my home caused me anxiety and his inability to show me love consideration respect or support even when I was ill was my turning point . I wanted him to leave and he knew this but would not communicate with me . But clung on to my home which he claims is half his our daughter which he never did anything for but now seems to want to show everyone what a great father he is when he never helped or supported us financially or respected me as a mother . He caught me in a trap I could not get out off .ignoring me and living seperate lives but expecting a dinner on the table and a clean house . He blamed me for the mouse as I tend to clutter but have always kept a clean home . This has been going on for months now . He stays in his mothers . He comes in and out when he likes and sits in s seperate room from us . I have stopped cooking or doing anything for him . My daughter is confused and just wants me to be happy . I have seperate from him emotionally as I know he may have contributed to my ill health . I realise I have always been doing things on my own and can continue to do so . I am no more lonely now as whenhe is here and I ambeing ignored . He has family here and friends to share things with . I have no one . I ask for prayers for good support and that I can get the right people to speak to for my daughter and I . My god is my strength . Please pray for me as he is playing with my emotions . He won’t go and he bought me a Christmas present which I did not want . He stayed all of Christmas Day to the point I had to give him dinner as I did not want an argument and spoil my daughters day . I really feel he is waiting on me to be my usual loving and giving self because it is the Christmas season . I have stood my ground for months now but I need strength and he is confusing me . I know he will never be the partner I deserve or father to my daughter . Am I being selfish ?
 
Look for an emotionally available man, and don’t move in with him or allow him to move in with you
Perspective.
The distance will give you more of this. Nothing to be gained by giving yourself to some who will not do the same.
Wait for a real relationship.
Peace.
 
I will never get the years back I invested in him. He promised me marriage . I was gifted by god my beautiful child but have lived a dysfunctional life with this man . I realise now he is the problem . When I watched him on Christmas Day I felt sorry for him which made me question if I had fallen truly out of love with him . But he seems content to spend time alone but still be part of this relationship maybe for my daughter . I feel he thinks it is the best for her we stay together . I do not however . I feel I have had much peace and contentment since he went to stay in his fathers but I now feel like I am the bad person as I cannot bring myself to speak to him anymore as I realise he never had my interests at heart . I have much anger that he never contributed to my daughters upbringing but tells everyone how proud of how she is doing when I did all the hard work . I resent him for this and don’t feel he deserves to have any part of her life but would never stop her from seeing him . I have a certain amount of fear if I speak up and tell him to go as I have no confidence in myself but I feel up until Christmas I was much stronger . Now I feel he is not going to let go without a fight and I can’t bear it when he is here .
 
I don’t understand how an extravagant present can solve all the hurt and problems we have and why he did this
 
Stop making it easy for him. It will be a huge adjustment for you, but you know what you need to do May God give your strength to follow through. 📿
