Hello Tee,
He did threaten to leave if I didn’t drop the whole thing. It’s very possible they’ve done things in the past sexually. My boyfriend was working industrial construction working for shut downs. He’d travel all over the US. He changed his career in July to go work on the oil field so he’s currently 5 hours away and it’s a 5 hour drive back.
I do believe you are right in saying I was lonely. He wouldn’t give up chasing me, and I hated where I lived (in a bad apartment in a bad area.) So we have moved an hour away from where I was living closer to people we know. We are now in a house. So B and I live together with my 6 year old. I’m only 4 months pregnant. Preganancy harmones have not helped my situation.
B has changed, but I’m not sure if it’s temporary to get his daughter (because I’m a good appearance for the courts). In December the court approves of denies whether he will get her or not . I do believe that the case worker sees what’s going on though. I hope she does. I don’t want to intervene on a child custody case. B’s parents claim they’ll take care of her while he’s at work because I’ll have my newborn and the 6 year old. I know I can’t do it all with a newborn, my son, and his 8 month old daughter. He makes me feel bad about that and so do his parents. I have a full time job, and on top of that his daughter is special needs. I have no expertise in that. She’s currently 7 months old and can’t crawl because of her issues. She attends therapy often. I don’t believe them taking care of her at all to be true because they just moved. Their house isn’t ready with anything in it. It’s a mess. His mom is gone all the time as a traveling nurse and his dad only has a very low percentage of his heart left and is not a patient person. He’s very mean. Given the facts it’s very hard for me to believe that it’s love. Since there’s a chance I’m staying to find out. So there is a huge other issue with us besides just E getting in the way. It’s really hard to deal with it all. A mutual gay friend of mine and B’s has confirmed my suspicion and said he knows E well enough (they’ve been friends for a long time) that he knows he’s in love with my boyfriend. That is why E comes to B’s defense over anything. He’s actually offered to talk to them both and me and B together. We will call our mutual friend R. I’m pretty happy about that. He’s a genuine good friend who really just wants to help.I’m anxious to see what happens because both B and E listen to R and have spilled beans to him. I’ll keep you updated and appreciate all of your input.
