Sometimes when people deny a problem, they get very deffensive about it. The fact he hasn't called or showed up probably has nothing to do with his daughter, but his "revenge" to you for kicking him out. Try giving him a call. Tell him you love him, that you are only trying to do what is best for you and your daughter... you have a kid now, and she is #1 priority. Tell him you would like to work things out, but he has to be willing to be a dad and a husband now. I have learned that some people dont respond to tough love... it can make things work. Don't baby him, but lay it out for him. Remember, guys dont think like us ;) I hope everything works out, and keep fighting for you and your baby!!!
my boyfriend is addicted to alcohol, but he doesn't realize he has a problem. we have been together for almost a year and we have a beautiful baby girl. how can i convience him, or what can i say to him to make him realize that she is more important than alcohol. i am really trying the tough love. i kicked him out, thinking he would realize that loosing everything wasn't worth it but he hasn't called or tryed to come see his daughter. is he a lost cause or should i continue to try and help him. any advice is appriciated
