I had my first child when I was 18- my son. My second child when I was 20- my daughter.

I’ve been in one relationship- on and off for 10 years with their father. We got back together a few months ago and put our engagement rings back on. We talked about moving into a house together and possibly having another child. He left me again after I caught him lying to me excessively.

I’m 23 now. I received my massage therapy license last year, and just graduated aesthetician school. I have stable childcare. I know I can make it on my own financially. But my mother and my ex fiancé are the only people that were close to me in my state. The rest of my family lives across the country.

I’m so mentally and emotionally drained by them.
