What sort of feelings? A crush? If you can still see yourself getting back together with your daughters father, and that is what you want in the long term, you should try and ignore the feelings. How will he feel finally being free after 10 years, to have lost the woman he loves? How will this affect your dauughter? Think carefully

Firstly let me congrtulate you on being a brave single mum with not an ounce of bitterness in your letter. There comes a time when you have to decide if your life is just a little too precious to put on hold. When your ex boyfriend was breaking the law he wasn't thinking about how hard it would be for you and your daughter to live without him, he was thinking of himself. No one made him break the law and I suspect he was rightly jailed for a crime he committed. You deserve happiness and you also deserve to have your freedom-after all it's not you in prison! I'm not gonna lecture on how unsuitable your daughter's father is, but I suspect your childhood friend would be more suitable right now as a role model to your daughter and also good for you when you need a hug on these cold nights.
Good luck with everything and remember...follow your heart!

If the child's father hurt you or any one close to you then i understand if you want the confort of a close friend. But if you feel like the relationship with the father is over then you got to tell him. Good luck follow your heart take care of it to.
