advice needed please


hey ladies,

it saddens me to say that my oh just hasnt been there. His been out almost every night in 5wks he comes homes gets changed goes gym, then out till 10-11pm he has loads of pals and family and has always been busy but not like this.

its like he doesnt wnat to be around me, he hasnt taken on any of the house hold chores or cooked a meal since i found out a few wks ago i was pregnant..
he said his out cause im grumpy n he dont want to argue but im not bad all the time its my hormones n him being out dont help im not the funnist person to be round at the mo with neusea,fatigue etc but im not the worse.
i dont want him bout al the time id kill him but atleast 1 days tats ours...

it would also be nice if he would ask if i need anything like a back rub, pepermint t, food etc but he dont his sooooo selfish...

i love him very much and weve been ttc forever n now i feel that he doesnt want to be with me n if it wasnt for the baby he'd be gone..

ive tried talking to him n texting,emailing etc he doesnt listen ...

any ideas of hw to talk to him i feel that if he carries on that will be it for us

Tell him this, tell him you feel that you are drifting apart, tell him that yeh you are a little grumpy and sick, but thats what being pregnant sometimes does to you, it doesnt mean you dont want him around, you just need a bit more support from him - tell him you need him and want him around while the baby is developing.

Try and talk to him in the opposite way you've been speaking to him before, cos obviously that doesnt work.

You need to hit a nerve with blokes like this, Good luck hun x

Failing that just give it to him straight, youve been through the highs and lows of TTC so why would you being PG be any different ... he didnt act like this then did he?

na he has always been busy but not like this i guess i used to see him more cause id go with him too but no i dont have the energy. he has sooooooo many people to see ive neva known anyone wid as many freinds if spent just 1 day a wek seeing em he'll finish at xmas....

prob is his so busy putting everything into maintaining his friendships that his 4got about our relationship...


we did have a row b4 i knew i was pregnant c his ex (kids mum) is a knightmare wont go to deep cause itll take 2 long n he always sticks up 4 her. once i was in bpool wen his son told me tat daddy n mummy had been 2getha just out n about n tat really got my bak up tat i had 2 hear it from him n not my OH.....

so i said y didnt u tell me?
n is tat y u didnt pick ur phone up al day cause of her?

n he went mad smashed up d room, spat in my face n just spoke 2 me like crap really (i no use r thinking y u wid dis guy) but i do love him cant help it.

well nxt day he didnt apologise said i deserved it n then he went on so i started sgoing nuts n he said maybe we shouldnt have a bay 2getha n i started crying my eyes out said u best pray im not already pregnant then...

and i was...were both happy aboout it n i no he'll be a great dad his just not such a great oh but all the stuff i do for him is about to atop cause i have a new priority n nothing n no one will hurt my baby (by stressing me out)

You're with a man who spat in your face and leaves you at home so he can go out and do whatever the hell he likes?

Hun, if he treats you, a woman, and the mother of his unborn child, with such degradation, how do you know that your child won't grow up to be the same kind of person?

I know it's your life, your decision, etc. But I could never be with a man who treated women so badly and with that much disrespect. Spitting in your face is the lowest of the low. I wouldn't do that to anyone, even my worst enemy.

I came out of a very bad relationship last year and any man that can spit in your face doesnt deserve to be called a man.

I know what im about to say may cause a few unhappy comments but a man that can treat the mother of his child that way will eventually treat the child that way !!

Im sorry if this isnt the kind of comment you wanted to hear but ive been there and it will happen.

If you stay with someone and let them treat you like you don't matter, then they will continue to do so. If you don't stand up for yourself and tell your OH what you need from him, you aren't going to magically get it. I don't know your OH, and maybe he needs to do some growing up, but you shouldn't be his "practice run" at being a man. You deserve to be treated with respect, and leaving you at home so he can go have fun is so disrespectful. Being a father and someone's OH requires sacrifice, and if he isn't willing to give it now, will he later? If you let him treat you badly, it will continue b/c he knows he can get away with it. You may need to look at other options right now. I am not saying break it off w/him now, but he needs to know you are serious about being treated right.

Any man that spits in the face of any woman let alone his pregnant girlfriend is not worth worrying about. I would seriously consider what is going to be best for you and your baby x
