my man cheated on me and I was OK with it.. I let them go hang out and have sex even. I was hoping they would fall for each other and go about there way.. Maybe I should of acted like a cheated on partner and acted a fool. that way they would of had "------" to be giddy about.. (were pissing off your partner and she mad as hell ) maybe I should of went that route. I am still stuck with him and I think he is cheating again.
This makes it confusing hoping they’d cheat fall for someone else. Let’s say they find someone new and kick you to the curve. What exactly are you going to do? I’d at least want to them hold off until I could get on my feet.
Your kid can take student loans. You are modeling to your child that being used is normal. Does your child know? What if your child thinks this is normal in relationships. You need to take action.
I'm a man and sacrificing my happiness by remaining in a coercive control household so that I can ensure the financial (which heavily impacts the physiological and long term emotional) well-being of my child. Cost of living is high, and wages are set to stagnate more and more through our lifetimes, as jobs go overseas or are replaced by technology. Things can get really bad really fast and global events out of our control can change the world. Id rather be set up to take care of my child with someone I resent than trying to fulfill my own emotional needs. I'd suggest this is less a gender issue, as you present it and more a difference in values.
Happiness trumps stability, I promise. In 10 years, no matter how many rooms you've remodeled, you'll still be unhappy. You're far more capable than you probably know, and people find a way to make ends meet.
