Issues with SO

Monika

Ladies I literally feel like I can’t vent to a lot of people so here goes..

My partner and I have been together for 6 going on 7 years this year… for the past 3 years our relationship has definitely been rocky.. becoming parents to our first definitely made things harder and more stressful as has living together.

He is terrible with money for a start so I feel like the adult in the relationship that deals with everything financial or stressful.

He goes to work full time and spends a lot of his money on cigarettes and I’m talking like a pack a day.

He doesn’t seem excited for this baby at all, he didn’t even really seem excited for our first but was somewhat more excited than what I’m seeing this time round. Doesn’t care if he doesn’t come to appointments, doesn’t even know how many weeks I am ect.. we are having a girl this time round and I don’t know if it’s cos of that as he really only wanted another boy or if it’s the fact he genuinely doesn’t care about me or us anymore.

We fight a lot.. and I mean a lot a lot. We hardly see eye to eye, he is never understanding, caring or thoughtful towards me especially during my pregnancies. He doesn’t calm me down when I’m angry or upset but rather angers and upsets me more.

I’m at my wits end on what to do to save this relationship as I feel we are both struggling and both not happy. I know why I am, I have no idea what is going through his mind exactly.

I just want to cry and I have been crying tonight about it and other things too… I just don’t even know what to do anymore.

Any advice is honestly welcome. 😔
