what do I do

I just gave birth 6 weeks ago. The father has stated from the beginning he wants nothing to do with his child.

For context I found out I was pregnant 2 days after an extremely bad argument between us occurred. He had me backed against a wall in a threatening manner and would not get out of my face and my trauma response kicked in and I hit him to get away. I do not want to be with him and I’m not sure I want him involved eith our child. However, he already has another child and acts/posts on social media that he’s an amazing father. Please keep in mind that he is not in a relationship with that child’s mother due to also the relationship becoming physical between them.

Some people say to just let it be and not bother but then others say to take him to court for child support. I’m really torn on what to do because I could use the financial help (if he were to actually pay) but he also makes horrible decisions, has allegations against him and the girl he’s currently dating I would not want around my child.

What should I do?

I feel like no one wants to meet my baby

Today was supposed to be the day part of my extended family meets my baby for the first time. She’s only met her grandparents, aunts, and uncle. But I found out yesterday that Easter get together was being canceled so they can go to some kids birthday party. All their kids are grown, so it’s weird to me that it’s a priority for them. Theirs been no other discussion about meeting her before the next family event (4th of July, she’ll already be 6 months old then). No other family on either side has contacted me or my husband about getting together to meet her besides my grandma. Am I supposed to be reaching out to them? No one’s even said anything to me since I’ve given birth. Idk if I’m over thinking this and I’m still just very hormonal, but I feel hurt. I don’t know what to do. I just want to do more things with my baby now that she’s 3 months old, including meeting all the people I care about. Any advice would be great, I’m not the best at communicating.

why do men do this?

Why is it that men will treat you badly, disrespect you, belittle you, and the moment you try to leave they want to be together. I’m 37 weeks and so done with my bf. I don’t want the relationship anymore and haven’t for a while. I have lost feelings for him and he just annoys me now. But he doesn’t want to break up

Anyone Asexual?

I have pretty much struggled my whole adulthood with low libido and wanting to have sex with men. I don’t have any sexual trauma. I am attracted to them. I’m attracted a lot to my husband. No I’m not attracted to women even in the slightest. No sexual orientation confusion. I’m beginning to think that I’m asexual. I need help because it’s costing me my marriage. My husband wants sex way more than I ever do. If I don’t have sex for months I’m okay. Is anyone else asexual, if so, how are you combating it? Do you take any supplements to help? Did you speak to a therapist? What have you done to save your relationships when your husband thinks it’s because you’re no longer attracted to him? I’m so exhausted with feeling like this. I hate it. I wish I could desire sex the way a lot of women do.

Does monthly income should include money I receive for my kids ?

Doing one form at the moment and have to answer this question ? Do I only state the money I receive for myself ?

Partner not lasting

Every time me and my partner have sex roughly once a week he lasts about 10 seconds and it’s staring to bug me now as I don’t get any pleasure from it at all . Does anyone have experience of this and know why this happens ? He doesn’t want to talk about it so the issue isn’t getting resolved .

Feeling overwhelmed

Who’s been feeling overwhelmed and lost in taking care of your family and forgetting about yourselves?
