HONEY, I KNOW YOUR EMOTIONS ARE RAW RIGHT NOW BUT IN THE FUTURE YOU WILL SEE THAT GOD SENT YOU YOUR 2 BEAUTIFUL BLESSINGS THROUGH THESE PEOPLE AND THAT GOD HAD BETTER THINGS IN STORE FOR ALL 3 OF YOU. I UNDERSTAND IF YOU DON'T SEE IT NOW, BUT IF YOU KEEP YOUR FOCUS AND YOUR HEAD UP HIGH THEN THESE THINGS WILL COME TO PASS. DO NOT DARE LET EITHER OF THEM WIN BY FILLING YOUR TIME WITH ANGER OR REVENGE. SUCCESS FOR YOU AND THEREFORE YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE THE SWEETEST AND MOST REWARDING FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. PLEASE STAY STRONG AND KNOW THAT YOU ARE NOT ALONE. GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU.

hey luv,i too am a single mother of 4 children,and though its not fair,there is nothing you can do to make that person be a part of your daughter's life,all you have to do is let go and let god,and yes,its easier said than done,but its all you can do.you cannot control what he does and spending time racking your brain trying to figure out why he done it is only hindring you and blocking your blessings.what goes around comes around and he will get his.so far as that girl,she might not know your child exists and if she does she may feel the same way about you,the problem with us women is that we tend to blame the women when its the man's fault bc he told us he loved us,not them.all you can do at this point is continue raise your daughter and move on let go of that anger and stop blocking your blessings,learn from this sitiuation and apply this as a way to better yourself for you and your child

wow, you just told my story with my first. i am sorry to hear it. i too had dreams and plans to blow everything out of the water for the dad... i kept planning my vengeance and my sweet reward of everyone knowing how big of an asshole he was and how great i was for raising his child alone... i especially dreamed that when i had a really stressful time and lack of sleep because my baby was going through a rough patch. it was hard.



flash forward to ELEVEN YEARS later... nothing changed. still an asshole. still never sees his kid. still blames me for not getting an abortion. still running around with lots of different women... and lies to them all about not having a kid... still says i wrecked his life... still never helped/helps... currently not paying child support... his parents, even thought they know, find some way to warp the situation into him still being a great kid and doing nothing wrong because parents are blind to their own kids and that is what they do... but me? i am sitting here with a GREAT eleven year old that i raised myself. i am sitting here with all these GREAT memories... i feel like i have GREAT strength for raising him alone... and i feel like i got the best vengeance of all... i got to raise a child. i get wonderful memories to look back on. i got the greatest gift of all... and he missed it and he will never get it back. to me that is the suckiest thing of all. i love my son. i raised a beautiful person that makes my day brighter and he will never ever have that. i get to look back on memories of late nights and chubby cheeks and first kisses and first hugs and first words and i can say i was there, my heart can swell up, and i can feel lucky... his father will never have that. he will also never hear the sweetest words come out of a child's mouth, "i love you, mommy." there is your vengeance.



i know it is hard now. she is one. she is a lot of work. you are missing sleep. your nights are spent in front of the tv bored while she goes to bed at 7:30. i know you don't have any freedom. i know you are tired. i know you have lots of laundry and lots of house work... and you wonder why it all has to fall on your shoulders and he gets to run around doing nothing. but tust me, they aren't always little and it gets easier. she will go to school one day. she will be big enough to leave home alone. you will find a great guy... if you have a positive attitude about your situation and you learn from your mistakes. there is nothing wrong with having kids with two different dads. i am sorry you had to go through this twice... i did too and i am a single mom of four kids with two different dads.... but take comfort that in the end you will have accomplished and gained so much more than the dad has... you will be able to say that you raised children all by yourself... the hardest thing ever... what can he say? NOTHING!



as for the relationship with the other girl? there is nothing you can do about it. forget about it. but what ever you do, GO AFTER CHILD SUPPORT.

First of all, i'm sorry that you're going through this.
I agree with Contis, and take it from someone who's a little older & walked your road...don't waste any energy on trying to make him suffer, because it'll never work...for him to suffer and hurt like you do he'd have to care first...i have children with 3 different men who have their own levels of badness, i guess that's the nice way to put it...lol...anyway, i learned after the first, to put all my energy into my kids, my oldest is 20 now, and definitely knows/realizes who's got her back, and who's been there for her from day 1...of course day dreaming of him in pain is kinda therapeutic...lol

I think what you need to do is to accept the reality of the situation and move on and just be the best mommy you can possibly be. Teach them about being responsible and respectful and loving and just enjoy them.
