I'm so lost
My husband had been having an affair for almost a year. I uncovered this when I was 3 months pregnant.
My baby is 11 months now, and we have been trying to rebuild. Someday, I think we are making progress. He has been spending family time with us and taking leave from work to be with us more.
However, today, he was upset about how I speak of his family. I got emotional telling him that I can never respect his family after they barely checked in on me whilst I was pregnant because it was more comfortable for them to brush his affair under a rug and not face it.
He became so cold and horrible. He told me I always deflect whenever he talks about his feelings. He said him being upset has become about why I'm now upset. I don't disagree with this.
However, what upset me was how he was acting towards me. He swore at me, told me to stay in my room, and told me I'd never change. He then proceeded to send me a long message about how I take no accountability, and he can't be upset because he's done worse . He swore at me while holding our baby. He then shouted at me while we were out. I was crying, and he told me to sort my face out before I got out the car while I was in tears.
We never ever argue in front of our baby, so today has been difficult for me seeing how he was being in front of baby. He seemed to have just lost it. It's not a regular occurrence, but I'm just so lost. I can't leave him because I stupidly love him.
Has anyone been through something similar or knows anyone who has? Any advice?
Looking for mommy friends 😊🤞
Hey everyone! 💕 I wanted to introduce myself. I’m 21 years old, I have a 5-month-old baby, and I’m new to North Carolina!
I’m looking to make some mommy friends to chat with, FaceTime, go on park playdates, or just get out of the house together. I’d love to have people to share advice with, have meaningful conversations, or even just vent and gossip a little—we all need someone to talk to sometimes! 😊
If you’re looking for a new mom friend too, feel free to message me. I’d love to get to know you! 💗
Need some honest advice
Hi moms, I need some advice.
I’m a first-time mom and 9 months pregnant. Yesterday, my boyfriend and I got into an argument over something that honestly didn’t seem like a huge deal to me. During the argument, he said, “I’m just speaking my mind to you—don’t be surprised if I get up one day and leave you.”
Since then, I haven’t been able to get those words out of my head. Today he’s acting nice and everything seems normal, but I can’t stop thinking about what he said. It really hurt me, and now I feel like I’ve lost trust in him completely.
Am I overthinking this because I’m so close to giving birth, or would those words stick with you too? How would you handle this?
