I am currently pregnant again and have spotted the entire pregnancy so am on light bed rest and was told not to get upset or stressed out. My boyfriend is the only income and he has an addiction. He spends his days sleeping (since he works nights) and the during the day he runs around with his friends so he can get his "high." I am very lonely as all of my friends are off at college, and I am normally stuck at home. I had a car until my boyfriend crashed it 5 months ago. I am getting very depressed. He spends all our money. We are at least 1000 dollars in debt to our landlord, and even when my boyfriend is home with my son and I he is on his phone the whole time making plans to go get "high." I feel like giving up, but I don't want to. I love him so much. He and my son are my everything, and I don't want to break up my family. PLEASE HELP!

For the pregnancy illiterate, what does "spotted the entire pregnancy" mean??
What addiction does he have if you don't mind me asking?

You have obviously been through a lot and if you and your boyfriend have made it this far in your relationship ask yourself what led you guys here. Was it love?or is it that your afraid to let him go? I think that you need to be the bigger person in the relationship. You not only have him to worry about you have something much bigger than that, you have your children. I know it can be hard to deal with this but do you want your son to see his dad in this situation? Know that family is forever, they will always be there for you through the good and bad. Maybe now is a good time to take a break in the realtionship and see what you want and if that is possible. You both need to decide what kind of life you want to live. Love comes with problems, and you two have to be determined to go through it all to reach the same goal. Talk to him, tell him what you feel. Remember the worst never happens, be thankful for what you do have, look at the bright side of things, you are much stronger than you think and once you realize that you will be able to overcome anything.Good Luck......
