If a man truly wants to save his marriage he would do anything and everything to fix it right?

So me and my husband have been married for 2 and half years and we have a 6month baby, we had a lot of arguments prior to baby but always fixed it, when I gave birth he helped me with the newborn phase he would wake up some nights and I really appreciated it, when baby was 3 months he stopped helping, he would come home late from work, go out every weekend with his friends, I had postpartum blues and almost got into depression as I’m not used to staying at home and did not have support as my family and friends live in a different country, I felt really alone and would cry half the time, I spoke to him about it several times but he would make promises and would not keep them, in the end I decided to leave and stay with family for a while so that I can get some help, stayed with family for 3 months now, he went quiet and wouldn’t call or check up on us, he stopped providing financially and I had to get into debt to help cover the bills, I got really frustrated and asked for divorce as everything was too much, it’s been 3 months now, he never reached out or apologized, but he claims that he wants another chance and wants this marriage to work, but what I don’t get is he never put in any effort to try make it work, he never texted or called to show he cared. I don’t trust that he can take care of me and my baby anymore as he disappeared when we needed him the most, I am tired of his empty promises, I don’t get how someone can change from helping me out In the beginning then changing totally and being heartless. Am I exaggerating? Are my feelings valid?

I'm so sorry to say this but the sudden switch in behaviour, coming home late, going out with "friends", not contacting you when you left all stinks to hell of...he met someone else, and now she's lost interest in him he wants to come crawling back. I *could* be wrong, but there is nothing redeemable about his behaviour. The fact he hasn't made any attempt to keep track of his child after you left is absolutely foul. I'm so sorry you're in this predicament 💔 Your feelings are so valid, you're already out you've done the hardest part! Don't let him pull you off the path to better things honey 💓

Your feelings are valid Having a child can have a big toll on the relationship The no effort sucks but the choice is yours

If he cared enough he would have contacted, he was distracted for a while with something that doesn't sound good. Don't be used, don't be second best and his already shown his true colours, he won't get better. Focus on baby and just heal and give yourself time, you will feel better in time

File for custody and support! Then he will have to help you out!

So heartless he is. Move on. Be strong
