This is common for people in their twenties.One of the best ways to get someone back emotionally is to terminate the relationship and be unavailable. I think she's on her way to explore other men if she isn't already, so you may regret not cutting her loose right now. Getting her back is really not that hard, especially since you have kids together.

Your girlfriend sounds immature and she is plain out right telling you that she is "using" you. There is no other word for it. I feel sorry the most for your kids, why did you have two children in out of wedlock with this woman? I can see one OOPS, but two? I am afraid there are consequences for your decision to bring children into this world without the bond and the commitment of marriage and now you are seeing the results of that.
I am sorry to say, but You know you cannot make her love you, she isn't the kind of woman who is able to make a commitment. True love is not about feelings, it is a concious decision to be a person worthy of love by putting the needs of our lover above our own, period. Love is active, love produces great feelings, but it is not about your feeling of love for her, it is about her lack of commitment to you and to the family that you have created together.
So, what do you want the answer to be? It seems it is time to cut your losses, claim paternity to the children so that you have "rights", and to move on with your life. You deserve more.
