So much has changed. I have missed you, WH!

I am not going to post a whole lot because it is late and I must get my sleep if I want to be any kind of productive tomorrow. I have been gone awhile, and so much has changed since my last post in January. Ladies, I've missed you.

My son is now 7 months old. He is amazing.

I have left Eric. (Finally, right?) But the shows not over. Reading over all of my old posts, I cant believe I didn't leave him sooner. I honestly feel stupid. But I can say that I gave that relationship my all! It was doomed to fail.

I will post more later under this thread after getting some sleep. Goodnight dear frieñds.

Glad to see you back Somitic. I have wondered how things turned out for you. I can't believe your son is already 7 months. I'm sure life has changed dramatically, and for the better it sounds. Can't wait to hear more about the little guy.

Congrats on getting out of a bad relationship. Here's to hoping you learn from it and set your standards higher for you AND your son in the future.

Oh, I practically danced at the sight of this title. I'm so glad that things have changed for the better for you! It is nice to get some reflection on the way your life has been when you are trying to move forward.

I look forward to hearing about your other changes

Nice to see you posting again, SP. Also, nice to see that your life is moving forward and Jaxon is growing fast. The lessons to be learned are the lessons that you can now clearly see from a little distance away.

It's good to be back! Things have changed a lot. It was just the same old thing week after week. The fighting, arguing, feelings of depression and unhappiness. I know some of it was from post-partum, but he didn't help support me during that rough patch either.

Right now, things are a bit heated between us. When I left him, I took Jaxon with me to my dads house, who lives two hours away. This of course pissed him off. Because I didn't agree to his 50/50 parenting idea where we switch off rotating weeks, he is now more verbally abusive ever, telling me he wishes the worst on me, he hopes I burn in ********, and horrible name-callings I cannot post on here. It's absolutely terrible. I have never been talked to in such a way.

I told him that he was more than welcome to come visit, but at this point I do not trust him to take my son on a visit because I fear he will not return him to me. I told him because we are in such high conflict all the time, we must have an arrangement legally set up before I can allow him to just take him back to his city, or spend an overnight with him. I feel this would protect me and Jaxon, especially Jaxon. Jaxon is just too young to be all of a sudden thrown into a different environment. I feel he needs stability and security. I have been his primary caretaker since he was born! And for the last month and a half he has been exclusively with me and nobody else.

So, that's where things are standing between Eric and I. I have secured a new job starting next week and have spoken with a couple of attorneys on the matter. I would be more than willing to work on a compromise or a happy medium for all of us, but with the way Eric is being angry, irrational, and unreasonable, I am forced to go at it my own way.
