My baby and I need some of his time too!

Question - (10 August 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 11 August 2011)
A female United States age 30-35, *hamikaT18 writes:

My boyfriend and I have a baby girl, she is now 10 months old. We've been together for almost 2 years which means I got pregnant only a couple of months after dating. He'll be 21 this october and I'm 19. His younger brother is moving to Texas next year in January and is going to be staying with their older brother and his wife. My boyfriend is getting very emotional about it. He tells me that he's been a bad brother to his younger brother and how he wants to make it up to him and was crying. I felt really bad for him. But the problem is every time my boyfriend comes home from work he goes straight upstairs (we live with his parents) to either work on his music or to spend time with his brother. He's been doing this everyday for a long time. We don't go out or spend time with each other at all. He doesn't spend much time with his daughter either. The only time he'll spend with us is for about an hour or less in a whole day. I feel bad that he feels he is a bad brother (his mother is always saying that he's a bad brother also) but what about me? And our baby? We need some of his time also. I suggested he just move out to Texas with his brother and he was actually considering it. I've come to a point where I just want to leave because my feeling are getting really hurt.

I have no idea why your bf feels so compelled to make up for being a "bad brother", but your bf seems to feel very emotional about it.

Perhaps giving him this time to do what he thinks he should do will make him a better person later on.

I'm thinking you should give him this time and see what happens after January.
