I tried
I'm 37 weeks along with my first baby. The dad and I weren't even an official couple when I got pregnant (only knew him two months before I got pregnant) i told him I was keeping the baby and he left. Now all these months later he's started coming back around. We went out for dinner civilly maybe three weeks ago to talk and it was great. We text now, call sometimes. He asked to be there when our baby is born (He wants me to keep him posted and tell him when I head to the hospital and such. He understands that I might not want him there in the room during labour, but he wants to meet his baby and know her name and such) I told him I had to think about the whole meeting the baby thing because emotionally this has been tough and I know it will anger my family allowing the man who walked away to just waltz back in to my life. However I did promise him that I will tell him when I'm headed to the hospital and if he is not there I will call and tell him when baby is born. And then we would go from there. Well we were supposed to get together last Wednesday but he got busy with work. So he was like how about Thursday. I was like okay sure. I did have plans but I did change them up so I could be free for him. I get to Starbucks and text him to say I'm here and there's silence. I waited an hour before I left. I got a response via text around 11pm that night saying "Sorry, I had a bad day. I'm just getting home now. Hope you have a good night." So yes I'll be honest I was mad and didn't reply to him for a few days. I was upset. I began replying this past Monday so I guess 5 days later and he didn't bring it up or nothing. Still didn't get any explanation. Well This morning I get a text from him saying how he doesn't understand why I'm being so short with him and was like have a good one since you're just going to show attitude and not tell me what is wrong. So I told him why I was mad. And he hasn't replied since I explained why. So now im like screw this. I don't want him in my life. Don't want him near the hospital. I'm zipping my lips and not saying boo to him. I don't have time for his little antics. I tried.
