I broke up with him and feel miserable

I have been with Ben off and on for almost 8 years, long distance for almost 3. We have a 1 year old daughter together. For the last 2 years we have talked about getting married, and me moving down there. I have been trying to get him to move here, but there is no jobs (he has a really good paying job, and wouldnt beable to find that kind of work here). He is a great guy, treats me and the kids great, is a good dad, and i do love him. But over the last few months i have felt no peace in my heart. Last week he told me to make a decision to either move down there or split up, so i chose to split up. I've been doing a lot of praying about it, and i felt in my heart it wasnt god's will for me to move. Now i feel relief, but i'm still pretty depressed. He says that he cant come up to see the kids that he will pay support. It just hurts like hell that my baby won't have a father. I cant let my kids go without a dad and i dont know what to do. It would be a lot easier if there wasnt kids involved. should i just suck it up, even though i know i wouldnt be happy, and move down there just so the kids can have a father?

Welcome to the board sweetulip0623,


Did moving include marriage? If not, I think you made the right decision.
