Me and my coparent are trying again

Hello ,
Long story short me and my coparent have not been together for a couple years but have a son

We discussed that we can try very recently to try again and see if we can work out stuff

I recently quit a position i made and got a lower paying job but within 2 months got a promotion. Its a retail job but im excited for the promotion not only to get back to the pay i was at before but to have money for both of us

She is in cosmetology school and isnt working so ive been trying to support her with her bills as well

I just told her about my promotion which i was excited about and she just dismissed it
It upset me so i didnt bring it up
And later in the conversation i brought it up again and

shes like “there is no reason to be excited about a promotion in retail , its not a sustainable job , you should go to school like me .”

I did not speak the rest of the time we had together and she left mad at me for not talking and be upset about it

This isnt the first time her demeanor is very bad towards me

My Sons Mom

Hello everyone

I have recently been seen my son more consistently over the past couple months after a hard year last year for coparenting.

I sometimes feel like when we hangout me and his mom are really enjoying each others company
But i do not want to be thinking of it too deeply especially because how we ended poorly and now both of just came out of other relationships recently
Im not quite sure to even think about getting back with her but it has crossed my mind

I do not want to lose visitation with my 16 month year old son but messing it up by trying to get back with her but its been on my mind to have my son in stable household and wanting to be around her seems nice but scary

What should i do or ask?
Do you think its a good idea?
Will i regret not trying? Or will i regret ruining my sons chance at a good coparenting experience?

Having a great time with my sons mom

I have been seeing my son finally consistently after resolving my conflict with my sons mom

We surprisingly have been communicating well , laughing cracking jokes and mostly doing stuff together with our son ( shopping together , getting dinner together , park walks , etc )
She has invited me to a family gathering for the first time as well this last weekend.

I dont see myself getting back with her but there are signs i might be reading wrong. Im not sure how to really figure it out because i dont see it out of the question things can maybe be figured out but i dont see that right now

How can i avoid asking a question like that to her?
What can i do that to make sure im reading the room with her?

Being in my sons life is the most important thing.

No Friends

I have been battling depression, having my so called “friends” say we are friends at work and then never make plans to hangout , and when i ask to hangout they are too busy. Its all the time. I just dont have anyone to talk too. I just wish i had known this prior to moving to a new place. Im not sure what to do. I put myself out there but no one sticks, maybe its me.

Ive cheated before and continue too

Im not sure where to even start.

Hello, i guess i can start by saying that i have cheated multiple times and continue to do so.

The first time i did cheat was because i was cheated on so i said let me not invest too much in this person so let me have emotional ties to someone else.

It was a multiple cycle of me doing that. Im not proud at all but everytime im in something nice just something chews at me saying im not getting enough from this relationship let me just find it in someone else.

Im not sure what to even think of that.

Recently i cheated on someone i do care about alot and it was long distance. The person i cheated on her with , i did so again. Im not sure why even my head like its fine dont worry, etc , i know morally its wrong , what im doing is just absolutely terrible and it makes me upset . But every situation or person ive been with , its the same outcome and at this point i feel like im terriblely ill.

I of course shouldve stopped and not seen anyone or gotten help sooner but i feel like i need someone with me and thats the only thing keeping me sane which is very selfish and honestly sad.

I guess with this post im really hoping to not only take responsibility but asking for help.
I do not want to be like this at all.
I dont want to hurt people but i still do it just cause the moment. I really dont know what to do mentally.
Im at a point where ill be better off not on this planet to save them from me.
