At the end of my rope
Am I going crazy? Am I being insane? Or is this all valid?
Ever since I had my own kid with DH last year, our relationship has gone downhill because of his favoritism with his bio kids. I cannot take it anymore and tonight I decided that I’m leaving, and told him this. I cannot do it anymore.
It hurts so much seeing him be super dad with his 2 bio kids during his parenting time while leaving our child to the side. It hurts even more to see how once they leave, he acts like his life stops until they return.
It’s almost like he doesn’t want to participate in things with baby and my bio child who lives with us because he sees it as some sort of betrayal. He’s only enthusiastic and puts the effort when he has his bio kids in the mixture. Is anyone going through this? He wants the fun family activities planned during his weekends with his kids. When that’s the case, he’s so happy, super hands on, participative. When they are not there and I plan something, he’s miserable the whole time.
I can’t do it. I feel like it’s not fair for the child we share together.
Am I being ridiculous?! Is this normal and am I just not having enough empathy? I don’t need him constantly crying when they are not there.
I have already asked him to see a therapist for this.
