...See more Hello fam just word of advice or any insight so I’m 25 engaged and have a 4 year old. So my problem is prior to my son I was In college and my identity was clear However ever since I had my kid and been more family oriented well try’s to be from my best knowledge but long story short my and my girl was compatible in the beginning when I was a piece of crap far as living life and not having a committed relationship she always say I was so much nicer during that time but Now I find my self not living for me no more and tbh I guess you can say I’m living day by day just keeping my family intact and it’s not like we messing the kid up with a lot of argument but there is a lot of arguments however the difference is she seem to bad talk me in front of him almost in a since of hurting me by words then my reactions make me seem like the problem so the mis of being disrespected in front of my kid to the point he copy’s her word from word or join in the convo bad talking me he never once copied me bad mouthing towards his mom however all that animosity towards me sad to say sometimes emotionally drained me from wanted to be around those two really at the same time bc his behavior is a totally change vs it just being me and him so idk I guess I’m struggling with having a broken home because that’s something I preached so much since he been here how important that was for me bc I came from a broken home and her she came from having her mom and dad her dad working and her mom staying at home however here is the conflict she don’t want to be a stay at home mom but more so she wanna be the head of house due to her striving to not being like her mom bc it’s not the 50s but her actions can be over bearing trying to everything then complaining about during everything if I’m not the lil things she expect me to do but It’s not like I’m a stay at home dad but Idk maybe we grew apart but just kind of suck I might end up with a broken family but I feel like I invested in this relationship so much I gave I’n with out even knowing I gave in I became more agitated I even switch careers to match her so we have more in common work wise the moment I start working on my self less work more education for the year now I’m making less money until I finish out my schooling and now we on the verge of separation bc she fed up but I honestly ok with that it’s just bad timing due to the fact she don’t wanna renew our lease and we on a agreement fars me doing school this year and reversing bill responsibility .. idk I’m y’all don’t know our history and I’m not trying sound like no perfect person I’m not but now I have to worry about new housing etc …idk stress any advice I was feeling like I should just go with the flow if we separate we separate if I end up homeless I end up homeless lol idk now I find my self laughing to not stress … my hair receding now I’m growing grays I have them headaches at the back of the head by the lower crown nape area
