I’m really starting to dislike my partner

r/

Since having my baby last year, my relationship has steadily deteriorated. I resent him for not helping around the house and for the way he treated me during my pregnancy. On the day I gave birth, I even received messages from fake accounts claiming he had been cheating on me. He denied it, and I stayed with him because I was in a really vulnerable place.

Since then, I’ve gone back to work and started my own business while on maternity leave, which is actually doing quite well—something I feel he resents me for. Whenever I try to talk to him about our issues, he manipulates the conversation by threatening to harm himself, or it escalates into a huge argument.

I’ve tried to hold things together for the sake of my daughter, not wanting her to grow up in a broken home. But she’s getting older now, and I can already see her noticing his moods. Eventually, she’ll notice the shouting, the anger. I’m not perfect, but I don’t deserve to live like this. I’ve given him everything and reshaped my entire life for him, and I don’t know how much more I can take.

    You had babies with another man child, he clearly doesn’t take responsibilities and help you out when you’re feeling doubtful, how did you have kids with this guy is baffling

    Another dude who didn’t expect life to change or his contributions to increase after a baby.

    Sweetheart, the home is broken now. Only you can remove yourself and create a stable,loving home for your daughter. You know what the right thing is, it’s time to face the music.

    Best of luck ❤️
