9 months and kinda single? Advice needed
Hi,
I’m 34, live in nyc and work in the HR dept. . Always wanted to be a mom. Was diagnosed with infertility issues at 21. Been trying for years. Finally, this year I decided to do <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> with my Bf of 3 years and now I’m pregnant and expecting in the first week of January 2020. We haven’t been getting along due to multiple issues (no sex since Feb bc he says he doesn’t like our sex bc I don’t initiate....no kissing or touching since May because he says we have been arguing too much). However, we get along very well when it comes to making decisions for the baby. He set up the crib and helps around the house with the setup.
About 3 months ago, we decided to go to couple therapy (I paid over $3,000 for the sessions as he’s working getting his finances together). 2 weeks ago, I decided to to stop them because I didn’t see any improvement. One of the exercises he had to do to was to spend time with me. He said “I can’t just do that. I’m still trying to heal from our arguments”
Tonight, I asked him where we stand and he said “ I just can’t pretend to be happy with you, I’m sorry. I need time and just don’t know how long it’s going to take.”
At this point, I’m convinced he does not want to be with me and is hanging on because I’m pregnant and as he says “I don’t want my child raised in separate homes”.... I’m ready to let go. I’m gonna be ok..... just thinking about becoming a single mom. I know things will be hard at times but want to see some encouraging words from you. Thank you 😊
