daniellexxxx agony auntTake a break go away for a few days you can get a really cheap holiday or even blackpool somewhere you and him can forget your problems for a few days, if he doesnt want to help him distress like run him a bath for when he gets home and make his tea even a romantic meal should distress him. I'm glad you have supported him as not many people would have in you situation.

All the best and good luck.

birdynumnums agony auntIt's lovely that you are being so supportive, but it's only been a few weeks. He's been with his ex for five years. That's a lot of history. If he is still paying for their home and having job problems, he has a lot on his plate. What would he do if she wanted to work it out? What would you do if he wanted to make a go of his family? I'm afraid for your heart that this is what he is thinking when he is pushing you away, so don't be too surprised if he does bring it up. It's pretty hard to walk away from a family, and he might be reconsidering what he is doing. Good Luck Dear. I hope I'm wrong, for your sake, but I hope I'm right for the child's...
