I was just reading your first thread. I am 42 and dh is 33. I have been at this a long time. We are actually legally divorced. Jak and RHW and others have been so helpful to me here. I have waffled back and forth, finding strength and then backing down. I am now 6 mos. pregnant and haven't talked to dh in 2 days. He really isn't a well put together man. He is very selfish and self centered. Its so hard, but I am trying to keep my boundaries. Right now I am having a tough time because its been a few days and I am in withdrawl mode and wondering why he isn't on my door with flowers. He probably never will be. Like you, I don't want to raise this baby alone or have to share custody, but that is no reason to be his doormat.
Hang in there...and lets post on eachothers threads.
