I don’t know how old any of you are, but whenever two adults get together, they bring baggage to the table. Your job, when dating, is to decide whether or not your baggage and his baggage make a set of matching luggage! ๐ If they do, then you proceed with the relationship. If they don’t, then you move on and find someone who’s a better match for you.
Clearly you knew about these two other women and decided you still wanted to be with him, so it’s important for you to acknowledge your responsibility in this choice.
You’ve been together for four years and have a child together. (I really hope you did not agree to name your child after the one his ex-girlfriend aborted. ๐ ) It’s time for you to stop making problems where they don’t exist. He’s chosen to be with [b]you[/b] ๐ and because you have a child together, rather than focusing on his feelings for lost loves, why not focus on what you have instead, and make a joyful history together by making each day you have together productive, happy and good? ๐
My instinct is that you’re feeling like you’re in an emotional rut so you’re looking for problems instead of solutions. Whenever a couple finds that their relationship is flailing, it’s time for a tune up! Consider reigniting the romance and passion you once had. My guess is that when you put some positive energy back into your relationship with your boyfriend, you’ll feel a lot better about him, the relationship — and yourself!
