Relationship problems

Hey everyone, i’m a ftm to my gorgeous boy who I had 6 weeks ago. I’m getting to the point now where I just don’t know what to do in my relationship, me and my partner are young, 22 & 21 and it is just so hard. He broke my trust while I was pregnant when he was dancing with other girls on holiday, messaging other girls etc when I was about 16 weeks along. We were very very early into our relationship and both unsure whether we wanted to keep our baby at the time but obviously decided together afterwards that we wanted to keep him. He said that he was scared and unsure on what he wanted which I do understand and I did stay with him, however i’ve never truly gotten over it and if i’m honest i’ve not ever been 100% with him since. He tries to get the girl that I was out of me and he has apologised so many times but it is hard, sometimes he says that I am always horrible to him even tho I really don’t try to be. It’s been 7 months now and haven’t really had any big issues like that since until a couple of days ago when I found a message on his phone to another girl 12 days after I gave birth basically calling her fit. There was no conversation between them since that. When I called him out on it a huge argument erupted and long story short while arguing he spat at me while I was holding our baby. This all sent me into a downward spiral and since then i’ve been feeling really low, had thoughts about suicide but I know I would never do it because of my baby. Yesterday I had a chat with my partner and said that we need a fresh start where both of us just give 100% to eachother and we need to be kind all the time. However i’ve just been having all these thoughts about how i’m just not happy, I sleep on the sofa every night and have done since about a week after he was born as my partner can’t deal with the noise he makes in the night, he rarely does a nappy change (i’m talking maybe one or two a week) and never does anything like bath time / any feeds unless I ask him / putting baby down for a nap etc. It’s so hard because I love him and I want to be with him but I just feel like I deserve so much better but he doesn’t see that, he thinks he treats me so well. What do I do? I feel like I can’t be happy with him but i’ll be so miserable without him

He has disrespected you multiple times you birthed his baby and he spat at you holding his baby… he is disgusting you deserve much better ! Worlds better than this. You can find someone who will treat you right & never look back. If a friend was saying to you this what would you say? I bet you’d say leave his ass! Pp is hard and you need support not to find him messages women 12 days after.. that’s absolutely shocking! What will you miss? A cheater? Someone who barely helps with his child? Someone who spat at you? Let this man be someone else’s problem !! I hope you’re okay! And have some support! You’re doing amazing dealing with this !

Leave him. Like yesterday. He sounds absolutely vile. And I'm sorry are you saying you sleep on the sofa with your baby because your partner "can't deal" with the noises he makes?? Absolutely the fuck not! Make him sleep on the sofa, absolute tool. I 100% get why you currently feel like you'll be miserable without him but trust me when I say that once you've left him, you'll feel SO much lighter. When you get to just focus on you and your beautiful boy, life will get better. Please leave this disgusting man child 💜

my boyfriend and i are 25 and 21 so understand what it’s like to get pregnant while in a young relationship. i’m 18 weeks and my boyfriend and i have had obvious ups and downs since i’ve gotten pregnant. but i trust him with my entire life. i depend on him financially now that im carrying his child. just the thought of him being unfaithful or spitting at me is gut wrenching. but if it did happen- i would make a plan to leave him immediately. you and your son deserve to have positive role model in your lives. would you want your son to treat another woman like this? because that’s what his father is teaching him. it’s your job to protect your baby and mold him into a good, productive member of society. i know it’s hard. i know you love him. i know you’re scared. but do you want to deal with this for the rest of your life? if you don’t end this as soon as possible, you’re going to be trapped. make the best decision for you and your son. he needs you to.
