Is officially living on the street back in Halifax.

He messaged me today to tell me that he had nowheres to stay and spent last night in the rain..

Against my better judgement I offered for him to come stay with me for a couple of weeks(i figured, being in the country is better than being on the street right?) and, well, he said he didn't want to get stuck here.

Well, GEE I'm glad it would be that bad to be stuck here for a little while in a warm apartment with the woman who is having your child *sigh* My Ex

On any hand, now I am stressed because I am about to have this baby any day and probably won't even have a way to tell him about the baby when it's born, since he didn't know how I could contact him.

grrr.

((((nowhere)))

yes, the most important thing right now is actually me, because I have a wee one inside me growing and that takes precedence over everything else.

and the sad thing is half of me knows he could be doing so much more for himself, but just is not trying, and the other half knows that hes wrecking his own damn life through his actions.

Though I am no longer interested in a relationship with him, there is a certain bond that remains because I am having his child. So in alot of ways I still care what happens to him and don't like to see him this down and out.

And not to be snobby, but I have definetly been the bigger person in this situation.

I imagine and hope he will call you again one of these days and you will be able to tell him about the little one and try again to figure out how to contact him every now and then or to have him contact you every now and then through the years.

Do not stress. He has lived on the streets before? He probably can handle it again and will probably figure out a way to get out of the rain if he wants.

Kudos to you for your strength. I have not read enough of your posts to know what REALLY going on but, what a kind person you are for offering a place for him to stay, with that added stress so far into your pregnancy. WOW. What an incredible person you are for that.

I find it kind of mean that he can't even tell you how to get a hold of him when the child is born. I don't have any children but, my little brother was born when I was 18 and his father lives in the same town and did not care. We thought about that a lot before Rhett came into this world. But the moment he got here - we were so in awe with him enjoying the moment that his donor barely even crossed our minds. When that little one comes.......enjoy your moment.....your time.......the pure love of you and your child.......realize that you are the fortunate one who gets to experience that. He's missing out in a big way!

Super hugs to you for being so courageous. From the bottom of my heart I hope everything works out for you!

(((((Rain))))) you're too kind for your own good. You've gone over and above take peace in that. Think of yourself and the baby right now. He's an adult and needs to take care of himself.

Aweeee Rain, I am sorry your ex is such a butt hole! I would not worry about contacting him when the baby is born. He knows you are having it soon. He does not deserve to walk on the same sidewalk as you. *sigh* My Ex *sigh* My Ex
