My boyfriend and I have been dating for a little over a month now, he’s not my baby’s father but he’s been very supportive of me and my pregnancy. When we first started talking and dating we would spend a good amount of time talking on the phone, to be more precise about 6-8hrs on the phone. Now after meeting in person for the first time we will maybe spend about an hour to two hours on the phone before he has to go to bed for work. When he has free time in the day he uses it to take naps after work or spend time gaming with his friend because they also live far away and he’s trying to maintain his friendships with them. Other times it’s time with his coworkers who he’s made friends with, and then once that’s done he’ll be home normally by 8-9pm and depending on what happens he’ll play video games on his own or clean. By 11pm he’ll have time for me and will let me know he’s going to call. We do text throughout the day but because he’s normally busy with something it’s kind of sparse and or more spaced out. I’ve brought up before how I would love to occupy more of his time if possible but nothing really changed and I was left feeling like I’m just begging for his attention when he doesn’t really have time for me anymore. Which he said wasn’t the case he’s just bad at accommodating me into his day now because he’s just doing what he normally would be doing if he was single.

I’d sack him off! Doesn’t sound like someone you want around a baby!

The last sentence verified my thoughts hahaha tell him if he wants to act single to go be single💀supportive of the pregnancy on its own doesn’t mean much here in my opinion when combined with everything else. Pregnancy is one thing but with a newborn it’s different, everyone wants to hold the baby and a partner who makes you feel seen without you feeling like you’re begging can make a huge difference.
