writes: I am currently in a love triangle. My 2yr old daughters father is my childhood sweetheat we have been together on and off for 13yrs. We were together for 5 years starting at age 12 I became pregnant at 15 then lost the child at 6mths pregnant. so shortly after that we broke up for a period of 6years still occassionally messing around. Then in april of 2006 we got back together and I became pregnant with my daughter when I was 4mths he went to prison he wasn't there when our child was born however I still held a relationship with him. During my pregnancy I decided to better myself and I went to college. 2wks before my daughers 1st b-day I met a guy name Travis.Travis is kind and good to my daughter. Meanwhile it is also a critical time in my life because I am about to start my clinicals for school. So Travis decided to help me with all bills so that I could complete school. Me and travis began living together we have been for a 1 1/2yrs. now my daughters father is home and he wants us to be a family what should i do? my daughters father is a really good person and I know he would have been there if circumstances were different. They both love me and I love both of them but some how I feel I should be with my daughters dad but what about Travis???

Being in prison doesn't automatically make you a bad person, and that's not why I mentioned it in my earlier post. It's just that something like that will hold him back in the job market. Every time he fills out an application there will be a spot that asks if you've had a criminal record, and he'll always have to put yes, even if it was just writing bad checks.

3 is a crowd!! is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThanks for the answer. Travis has had his share of trouble in the past. Nothing sense i have been with him. Yes me and Travis have had issues as do all relationships. Travis cheated on me with his childs mother 5 months into our relationship. I forgave him. Don't be mislead about my daughters father incarceration he is a good person just made a bad decision that he paid for. My daughters father had his share of mistakes too. I'm confused I kind of in a way don't want to lose either of them. Still confused

I'm assuming that Travis doesn't have a criminal record. I would say Travis. Making a life and starting a family is difficult when one has been to prison, his worth as a provider has already been stunted because of what he did.Don't exclude your daughter from her father, but for the both of you I would say your best chances of having a good life are with Travis.Of course now that I read your post you don't really say much about Travis except that you love him. Does he treat you well? Do you fight a lot? Do you want to ring his neck sometimes? Oh wait that's how most girls feel about their guys.
