Being alone is very scary. I was there at a point in time. But I learned and adjusted. I was happy not having to be surrounded by negativity. It may be scary but you can’t rely on anyone for happiness or peace. You have to bring that to yourself. You and your baby deserve that. Take this time to learn who you and your baby are. Learn what makes you happy, what hobbies you like, and how to be alone. Learn to love yourself and you will be okay. Remember it is only temporary. You will date again soon and you will find love again soon. What you shouldn’t do is subject your child to multiple men that will be in and out of their life. Protect them and yourself. Eventually the right person will come around. I understand you are hurting and scared it will all be okay. You and your child are worthy of unconditional love and it will find you again.
You can’t rely on anyone for your happiness. You need to focus on yourself and your baby. Don’t rush into anything new, find happiness by being alone, get comfortable with being alone and when you least expect it someone will come along, but don’t go looking for anything.
Oh that's not your fault. I left my ex husband who i had 4 daughters with over 2 years ago, when I left I had a roommate who i was very close with and my youngest daughter (3 months at the time) knew him as a father figure for 4 months. After I moved out after a bad falling out between us which was due to both my ex husband and my roommates now ex girlfriend who he left very shortly before i moved in with him I felt awful and felt like I had robbed my youngest child of a father figure to some degree. However I have a wonderful fiance who my children all adore and we have a son who will be a year old in February. Circumstances change and so do relationships. You haven't failed your child or yourself. If you'd like to have someone to talk to I'm more than happy to listen and provide some emotional support and just be someone to listen to you and speak to.
