I messed up

I can't believe I'm pregnant at 21 living the wife life with my bf who I hate. He has anger issues and I feel like I'm not bringing my baby into a happy home. He's verbally abusive and I'm scared he's going to talk ugly to me in front of our son and my baby is going to think acting like that is okay. He's taking care of the bills right now so I feel like he thinks he can do whatever he wants I'm just so mad I put myself in this situation. Anyone else feeling this way?

One of the ways we show our kids we love them is by how we treat their other parent.  He honors his child when he is respectful to you.  He dishonors his child when he isn't.  That's the bottom line.  I would give the relationship a break.  good luck

Thank you ladies my family is very supportive sometimes I think about moving me and the baby to my moms house temporarily just to get away from him. I really don't want to put up with his ugly attitude and have my son around that either I just feel bad because I know he loves our baby

Ahhhh,  I'm really very sorry hon!  It does sound bad and like there isn't much peace in your home.  That must be so upsetting for you,  Here you are in what is supposed to be a happy time of your life dealing with that.

I always encourage women when they see signs of this to immediately leave before pregnancy or getting very attached.  But it's hard to do, I know and some guys are tricky and don't show their full true colors until after.

I would look into where else you can go.  If you aren't ready to leave, then I would find employment so that you can leave if you need to and aren't in that vicious cycle of being dependent on him.  

do you have any family or friends you can lean on?
