Well, besides spending time with my son, I continue to go to the gym. Plus, I follow my favorite college and NFL football teams. Since my son is 3, most of my time is spent with him.
I have been lurking for about two months now. I found some similarities with my situation. That's why I decided to join. Plus, everyone supports each other.
I have found legal counsel and was advised to file for custody with child support since we are not married. Since she was not providing for my son, I decided to proceed with my case. She received court papers last week. Yet, she has not said much about them. I think she is surprised that I filed. I feel like I had no choice since we are not married. Everytime I wanted to discuss our son's situation, she threatened to take him and move in with her.
I know she is lost. My family sees it in her, especially my mother. We all feel bad since she really does not have any family. Her mother passed away more than 10 years ago. I know that caused her a lot of pain. She did not want to talk about it much.
