Would you leave?
My boyfriend doesn’t do much of anything but when it comes to my son (7), He really doesn’t do anything. I get off at 8am. Home by 8:30 and my son still in bed and he goes to virtual schooling at 8:30. So I get home, he’s still in bed, now he’s late for class. My bf is aware of this, he stopped helping months ago. He wants to play video games all night. Not working. Nothing.
But anyway. One day he unplugged my son tv, He didn’t say anything to me about it. I left went to work then the next day I get home, my son was upset! So I asked him why and he said “..... unplugged my tv and took my remote.” I asked my son “why?” He said “I don’t know. He just did.” With tears in his eyes.
Now! This wasn’t the first incident with his tv and remote. The first time I didn’t say nothing. The first time my bf took his remote and the roku device out his room, my bf was claiming that when he walked out our bedroom my son hurried up and act like he was lying down. Okay so? I feel like he should come to me and not cut his tv off when he knows he’s afraid of the dark. That’s why his tv stays on at night.
So the day where my son was upset I went up to my bf and said “Hey, we need to have a talk about what you do to jr when I’m not here” and he flipped. Like he got so loud, so rude. Saying I asked him the wrong way. Which I admit. Maybe I shouldn’t have asked that, per say.
But basically at the end of it all. I just told him that my son is upset because you’re taking things from him without knowledge., I feel like how can you “try to discipline” him but you don’t even spend time with him or bond with him. So, I asked my bf does he want to build a bond with my son, he said no, I asked him again does he want a relationship with my son? He said no? I said so you’re not willing to build a relationship with my son? And he said no again.
So, the question is would you leave him?
I’m deflected but this really isn’t the only thing in this relationship. It’s more. But my mom feels like he doesn’t like my son, that’s why he’s this way. And also he said he was tired of feeling left out and I said left out between what, and he said “between you and that little boy.” And he pointed to his room. Mind you my son heard all of this. From not building a relationship to calling him that little boy.
