I am wondering what is his reason for wanting to stay where he is at? I told him I'm leaving he gets an attitude about it, but when I ask him why doesn't he just come with he never can give me a straight answer. I moved down here to be with him and I honestly believe he likes it that way because he has control here. His job, his friends, his family, his town. In my hometown is the same way. That's not my reason for wanting to go back. Could it because he likes the fact that he has control here or is it because he doesn't even want us to stay here and rather see us go?

In a nutshell he doesn't want to go because he is happy where he is. His job is here and friends and family and although you are his partner and you have a daughter he doesn't want to uproot himself from what he knows. I can understand your frustration because you went to the effort of uprooting yourself to come to him but it doesn't appear that he wants to leave what he knows and feels comfortable with to come with you. I can understand your desire to return to what you know if you are not happy and his attitude is probably one of feeling upset that you won't stay here and make a go of it with him. Maybe you go back to California and see if he feels enough to follow you. Leave the door open if you possible can.
