Boyfriend feeling used for money?
I'm 30 weeks pregnant and almost lost our baby last week. I've been on bed rest for a month (November 4 was my last day of work) I'm in the process of getting short term disability. I worked full time up until then paying toward everything in the house; same as him, but I also have daycare for my older son (not his son) my son's father has been so understanding but asked if I could pay anything toward daycare this week. I asked my boyfriend if he would loan it to me and I'll pay him back when my Disability kicks in or even tax returns... my boyfriend got mad. Accusing me of taking advantage of him and that I'm still in love with my ex and care about helping him so much and that I'm dumb, self centered, don't make my boyfriend a priority etc. I quickly corrected him about how I'm a mother FIRST and I provide for my children but I needed some help right now. It's not for my ex, it's for my son that my boyfriend claims to love more than his own son I'm currently carrying. I said "you act like I wasn't working up until a month ago and know how hard I work and I'm not one to ask for help but I need to swallow my pride for my baby. I haven't bought anything for myself in months; where do you think all my money went while I was working too?" And he replies with "I have no idea; wheee did it all go?" MY CHILDREN! Bills, food, daycare, gas, rent, insurance etc!
The fact I've been out of work one month and he acts like this????? Am I overreacting to want to leave him? This feels like a power trip/controlling and like he's trying to make me feel guilty for putting my children before him. I have nowhere to go except to my ex's and I really don't want to do that but I will if I have to because my boyfriend threatened to cancel my car payment that he needs too! (he uses my car because his got reprocessed 2 months after we met before we even lived together) 😔
