Sierra,

I was once pregnant and unmarried. I married the baby’s father, and we were together for three years. He was a good guy, but we were both very young and didn’t know how to make things work. The thing is, you keep wanting the father to be somebody YOU want him to be. You have ample evidence that he is who he is. He won’t change because you want your baby to have a father.

Since you say you are able to raise a child on your own, I suggest you focus on the gift that came to you, your baby. Please don’t do as I did, and resent your baby for changing your life in a way you didn’t plan. There are larger plans at work in your life — and the father’s. See the blessing, not the wrong, and you will do well. Let go of the father. You know he’s not for you.

Spirit will support you as you raise a healthy, beautiful child. I know it.
