It may just deal with her feelings towards you as a father. But you don't think maybe that will play a role in her thinking about how it might be nice to think of you as one family?
Even so. The fact that you HAVE a child isn't that already a wonderful thing that you have from this period that won't ever disappear?
If I look at my sitch...we have cats. And we kind of talked about how we would split up the cats and a few weeks ago she mentioned how they should stay with me because they love each other and how I am so good to them. But that she hopes she can visit. (probably two or three weeks ago). It's not the same as a child....obviously...but suppose my W and I break up. There really would be no reason for us to stay in touch. It would be possible for us to just pretend this whole thing didn't happen. You know?
I hope this made sense...ignore me if it is just me rambling...
