(im sorry this is long i just need to) I just want to disappear right now the past week depression has gotten worse and I know why but there's nothing I can do only thing I can do is lay here and cry and use my best friend my knife. A week ago my partners ex came back to state with his kids (yes I'm glad he gets to see his kids now) but she's always around him me and him live in 2 different places so I only get to see him after work for a little or on my days off but we message each all the time sending kissy face and everything and then I get Saturday nights with him and weekend nights when I can go over and spend the night we fall asleep together on video chat but ever since she came back I been thrown to the side I get ignored when I message him I haven't gotten any video chats at night I got one call yesterday while I was at work and that was because his Internet was messing up and he needed me to go online and pay it for him and then see if there was and connection problems. I'm the kind of person that I need that physical touch to feel alright and I'm not getting it today is my day off which means I get up at 4am drive 15 mins away take him to work then come home and then go get him after work and get time with him well I took him to work and I'm feeling like I want to cry so I'm holding that all back till on the way home he asked me what was wrong and me being me I push it off well I got home after driving with so many thoughts in my head "just drive over the side of the overpass no one would care, "just stop in front of the big truck" " just run in to the wall close to the gas station" ( I hate the thoughts in my head some days) well after he's been at work for an hr I send him this message "U wanted to know what's wrong OK well here it is (yes it mostly sounds dumb to u) but its how I'm feeling I feel empty there's reasons y I will say I need cuddles caz it helps(a lot more then u will ever know). I don't get my kissy faces anymore :( i dont get anything anymore i get ignored all the time now I just had to say what I'm feeling right now" and his answer 10 mins later "OK your live" and then I get told and hr ago not to pick him up after work which in his hidden words you don't get to see me today

      It doesn't replace the comfort I feel it doesn't fill the emptyness i feel its not the same its not laying my head on his chest when I'm tired and fighting sleep (when he knows I'm really tired and don't want to sleep he will push my head on to his chest and I'll be asleep in just a few mins he's done it many of times when he knew I needed sleep) its not the same as laying my head on his lap or even just his leg when I'm starting to feel that I need that comfort its not like I'm asking for much I'm asking for comfort, communication not just a look at my message and then ignore it like u had the time to look take a second to send me a little kissy face like u use to or even a small message going "hey I'm busy at this second I'll let u know when I'm done" its not like I'm going OK we have to have s*x right now I don't ask for that we use to do that every day a few times a day and then it went to a few times a week then a few times a month now to when ever he feels up to it

      The day after she got here I had to meet up with him and I got just a few mins caz I had to get him gas for his truck ( his card got locked down and so he sent me money to use my card for his gas) I get thrown one of his shirts he wore for a little while he sprayed his cologne that he wears from time to time on it) and get told "here your be fine" but no I'm not fine I'm not

        @bellagaza listen sweety, like I said before this is not going to be easy, nor is it going to feel good. It's going to hurt really bad. But it seems like he has made his choice by allowing the woman of his children to control his life. It is not fair to you or your son. He's not setting a good example as to how you should be treated. And you shouldn't allow your son to even think it's okay to treat someone they love without care.

      Only time I have felt happy is when I'm with him he's my safe space and its like now everything is being ripped away in just a short amount of time

        @bellagaza I understand. That's why it's important to become our own safe space. With affirmations. Even perfumes or colognes. (Yes you can have a cologne that smells like him) but to allow our safe space to be another human, that's a lot on them as well as a very unstable thing for us.

      Even in my current relationship. I started to set my boundaries and I am keeping to them.

      It's always okay to compromise but never compromise yourself in a relationship that is causing you pain. I lost myself a few times and the last 3 years I made sure that didn't happen again.

      all I can really say is to be careful. I mean you can keep a friendship with him and the baby mother but I wouldn't keep your heart in the position to be torn.

      So its like I knew what I was getting in to with him having kids I have 1 of my own so it was a thing we both understood I was around 2 of his kids for a little before their mom decided "oh u can't see them anymore" and after that I got to be around one of his other kids and her mom me and her became like best friends and his little girl (one of the ones I kinda question) adopted me as a mom and my son as her brother and her mom was fine with that we would go out and she would tell the little girl "look there's other mommy and big brother" then she was ripped away from us and now the 3 boys are bk from out of state with their mom the boys get along with my son but now I'm being pushed away because of her

      Its like I knew what I was getting in to when we first started messing around he has 9 kids ( 3 girls and 6 boys he doesn't get to see 3 of them 2 of the girls and one of the boys) 2 of the kids he has I kinda question if they are really his becaz one the girl had someone else sign the birth certific and she doesnt really look to much like him and then this other one I haven't seen her and from what I was told at first the mom was saying she wasn't his Caz she was with someone else around the same time it was a one night stand for him we got in to a fight last year and he ran to an old friend and slept with her

      Here on Saturday she was talking to me about the 3 of us getting a place together that way she can get out of her sisters and he can be with the kids all the time and it's like I can't do that it would kill me it would kill me so much caz I know she would do everything in her power to get him to push me away even more then he already is right now and it would be me, her, him, and 5 boys (her 4 ages 5,6,7 and 13) and then my 10 yr ( who is special needs)

        @bellagaza 😥🙏 wooooo Okay my love for 1. I can feel your distress so just BREATHE!! I'm glad you are trusting to put this out. 2. It seems to me like has already made his choice hunny. Respectfully, I feel like you should work on saying your goodbyes to him because this whole situation is not fair to you. Listen, if a man is going to choose you, he's going to choose you. If you are willing to choose that man you're willing to choose that man. You are a wonderful person for loving this man despite him having children ❤️❤️ but your feelings, and your peace matter just as much as his do. If you cannot be his safe place just as he is yours, it's not going to work. I had a fling like that because he and I could not ever get on the same page fully. He pushed me away even though I openly expressed that I was willing and even wanting to be with him, knowing he had 2 children from a girls sister that I grew up with while we were supposed to be talking. I laid all that aside and I told him as long as you make sure that she respects me and you continue to respect me, that I will be here for you in your corner. And for a little bit things was great. I knew he worked a lot but he made time to come see me when he could, but I knew when I wanted to come around him and he had his children that he didn't want that. So I forced myself to open my eyes and see that he and I just weren't going to be together in any form. He was my safe place. He was mine forever. And honestly, I still think about him. But I am healing myself and I am learning my worth. In short babes, your heart is too golden and loving to allow someone to treat you less than your worth. Trust me, I understand. When I tell you that man was my best friend, I thought he and I were destined but we weren't. And no matter how many times I play that scenario in my head, it will always equal up to him not choosing me. So I had to choose myself. Now, I will say that some men will change if they truly care for you and care about you. They will change and do more to keep you in their life for good. But this situation doesn't sound like one of them, and I'm truly sorry that you are having to deal with this, because you seem like you're such a beautiful soul 😥

      ( im sorry i go on and on and its pointless sometimes but it kinda helping a little bit to just let it all out i have no one to talk to ever) It just hurts so much I never ask much from him at all it's always let's just cuddle up and watch a movie or play a game together or lets go for a walk hell I have even called out of work on a sunday becaz I just wanted to just lay there with him and watch movies caz I was feeling a little blue there was nights to where I would get off after 10:30 at night and have to be snack at work at 6 in the morning and he would ask me to come over when I should of been going home and going to bed and I would jump right there. I have been there for him more then she has there was one night that I got off late and he was having a really bad night he got in to a fight with a friend and i was getting messages from him bout how he was feel and he decided to get drunk and go for a drive caz he wanted to kill himself I broke every law I could go get to him doing 100 in 35s, running red lights and everything to find him and after I found him and got him safe with me I stayed up all night to make sure he was ok even thought I had work the next day but here he tires to call her she couldn't be bothered its like yes they have kids together and a past together and we don't have any kids together (we almost did but I lost it he doesn't know anything bout that at all) and almost 2 years together I have been threw hell and back with him and I would do it all over the only time I have been feeling happy lately is when I'm around him. All she ever does is bitch at him before she came back to state she would call him and yell at him about stupid shit she uses him for his money (I understand if like the kids need something they have 3 together but she has a total of 4) she would call him and go "the kids want a toy I'm using your money for that" ( when here he would only have enough for gas for the days I can't take him to work or he can't get a ride) and she would do that for all 4 of the kids not just his he has to pay for her other child that's not his. Hell he got a 2nd job and I was so supportive of it Caz yes he needs to make money to pay his bill he works as much overtime as he can with his main job and yes it sucks caz on my days off it takes time away but I understand and I'm supportive of it but she told him that once she got here he had to stop taking overtime and be off of work the time he should be off (no later then 2pm) and she made him quiet the 2nd job and before she got here she was sending me long ass messages saying he didn't care bout the kids and all of that and I told her that he's working to be able to pay his bills and to be able to make sure the kids have what they need and she went off on me I just wanted to go look bitch u get money from him u have access to his card if he can't work u don't get shit

      I'm sorry you're having to deal with that hun. I hope he gets his head out of his behind and give you what you're asking for of him WHICH IT IS NOT A LOT AND NOT TOO MUCH!!!!! You are more than enough and it is very bad that you have those thoughts but it's normal when we are depressed because we feel like we are doing so much wrong and that we're not enough and for men, who aren't inclined to that, we are too much for them. But you should never have to beg your lover for his affection. Especially if he depends on you as his girlfriend for a way to and from work and that's yalls time together that you depend on. In my opinion, since he's trying to be hurtful, you should give him the cold shoulder and focus on you for a few days. Be very short with him, and do not give him a ride. He obviously has other means of getting around. In those few days, if he doesn't make the effort to come to you, come see you come check on you, that means he's not meant for you. In my opinion he's only there because of the benefit of you. I've been handled that way and I've learned that choosing you over any relationship is key to being free and more independent and valued.
