Question - (13 July 2008) 0 Answers - (Newest, )
A female Canada age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Well I am about to have a baby with my boyfriend of two years, who has a problem with alchohol. I left him last year because he kept ditching me to go party and wouldnt come home till the next day and he started lyhing to me about where he was.

So I left him and moved away, but we started talking again and he promised to change and we got back together. He did change for about 6 months, we started going to school together and he quit drinking and everything was going well.

I got pregnant, and for the first 7 months of my pregnancy he was sober but then he gradually began to drink. now he is back to ditching me to drink and not coming home and lying about where he is. I dont know what to do, because since we are having a baby its not just about our relationship anymore, but i dont want my baby to have an alchoholic father.

I have tried getting mad, i have tried telling him how i feel, i have tried writing him letters so it doesnt feel like im just getting mad at him. i feel like ive tried everthing.

does anyone have any ideas on how to get through to him? do i have to leave him? i am 19 and i dont want to raise this child by myself.
