i think you both need some breathing space.try not to put pressure on him.if he wants to be with his child there isnt alot you can do.ask yourself if you will be able to cope with him spending time at hers to see the baby?financially hes now forever committed to this child too.you need to face the facts about this baby.more importantly so does he.

reader, anonymous, writes (26 March 2007): I would be questioning whether I wanted to be with someone who does not want a relationship with a child he has created. He used this woman for sex and then blamed her for getting pregnant. She let him. I have no idea why we women do such things.
What about the poor liitle child, how awful to grow up thinking your own father does not care about you.
Your main concern seems to be insecurity about him and her. I think it would be much better if he did make a relationship with the baby. You should not be worried about your relationship with him to the extent that you would try to stop that.
I don't think a secure, confident, together person would pick a man in his current situation, so am a bit worried about you. I personally would not go anywhere near until the situation was resolved, and only if he put his child first.
He has not been kind and I am concerned that you do not consider yourself worth more, or are at least extremely cautious. Don't be blinded by a small veneer of what seems like affection, look underneath at the real man, which is shown by his actions, not gestures or words.
