venting. so lonley

So my childs dad hasnt been involved and denied my kid from week 9 till week 18 half. Im now almost 21 weeks. He texts me.. Well his baby brother tell him to text me to see how i am.. See how baby is. When we talk i can tell he does care about me and our baby. But for the last week hes supposably been so sick hes slept literally the entire week.So he says. I feel even more linely now then before. I was offered a small job and a place to stay... Pretty far from my home. I told him i was considering and he SWORE to me he was gettin a place this week and has gotten baby all kinda stuff... Since iv ddclined my offer he hasnt talked at all... So here i am stuck here even lonelier than before :( its killing me. No one to talk to ANYTHING about. To get opinions, help deciding stuff,, picking stuff out,, shopping. NOTHING.

Oh i  fully believe actions speak louder. I tell him all the time words are words to SHOW me what hes saying to me. I know i can do it. I have this long. Just ***** doing everything completely aline noooo opinions or nithing. My family n friends support that im having a baby but they still arent reali involved and i cant go to them like others

Do what you have to do. If he cares he will pull you back with actions not words

It may be scary and lonely but. You can do it. Its not easy, i know plenty of people in your situation. You dont deserve to be treated that way. I would contact the people that offered you the place to stay. Best of luck, you got this! You can always reach out to other people for support, not jusy significant others.

Oh none of its really that simple. His family has put me through hell and back for the last several months... Theyre why he quit being involved in the first place. Its to late to get that offer back.. It was either take it orr leave it right here right now. I wasnt ready tk give everything up to only be barely sn inch towards better. Not even a step closer. Along with the offrr were also some flaws. And iv deffinately been thinking about my child more than anything. Ifi was thinking about myself id be worse off. He thought he was gunna go from 0-100 over night. Heck naw. Still protectinf my child from him. I wont conpletely keep him from her but its gunna take ALOT more than now

^^^^exactly....sometimes it ***** but you need to do whats best for you and that baby....if he doesnt put in any effort dont waste your time cause he will probably just end up being in and out of babys life. its time to start thinking about whats better for baby and not just yourself...it makes me sad you turned that job and plave to stay....it sounds like a great opportunity. maybe try to contact them. stop trying to get a hold of your childs father...you cant make him come around and care...if he doesnt come around or care its just gonna hurt you and baby in the end. do whats best for you and baby.

Sometimes you can't rely on anyone but yourself :(  can you get in touch with the people who offered you the job and the place to say?  Even though you turned them down?
