I had been dating a guy for 2 1/2 years, he had many drug, alchol and gambling problems, always promissing to change I did believe him. Him and his son (now - going to be 5) moved in with me within 2 months of our relationship (he had full custody of his son, because to the appearance of the courts he was a better parent, the mother was/is into drugs more than he was.) I raised this little boy and basically my boyfriend. He expressed that he did not want this baby, but now wants to change his mind. I know he still talks to his sons mother and will do anything for her, he missed an important day in our lives just to take her to rehab for the 2nd time.
Well I am now 5 months pregnant, and he has always walked all over me, I am the bread winner, I owe the house, the cars, work full time, did all the household chores, came home cooked. I felt like I had 20 jobs. I always comforted his child when daddy ran out for 3-5 days at a time, tell him daddy was working on a big surprise, which turned out to be promises he would not do it again. He actually became clean when the courts got involved and were going to take his son. I spoke up for him and the courts agreed since the child was in my life that they need not take him. He has been clean for 6 months or so I think.
The other day he knew I did not feel well when he started an argument over me relaxing and watching TV. and so he went took his son running to grandmas house. I have later found out that he may have gone to see and be with his ex for the day. NICE, he could not make it to my sono exam because judge judy was on. I really can express My my fowl language of how I feel about that. Oh did I tell you that he has been on workers comp for almost 3 years (and I just figured out he was a lazy slug, not contributing any funds, time, or help)
As much as I hate him, maybe my hormones are shot I still care about him and want him to be home with me. I think I have a problem letting go. I have to take care of myself and my baby. If he isnt here I really dont want him to be part of my baby girls life in a couple of months. As I am afraid he will leave her in a crack house like he did his son, if he relapes.
Someone please help me!

kick him out. its not worth it. I see absolutely no excuse for you to put your child in danger with drugs around. There is nothing that will make it okay to have drugs around a child.
