leaving your childs father

i have been with my childs father for 4 and half years. we started out so well, but know since we are living together its been like hell. Some days are good others are not. he has his relatives living with us including his grandmother and she is nosy as hell. we constantly get into heated arguments because she cant seem to mind her own business. I love his family but i cannot deal with this. Now, I have moved back with my parents because i dont have to hear all that nonsense. He is refusing to let my daughter go because, I think that will bring me back. I love him and i want to get married and settle down but he wont make a committment. This saga of mine is real long and i will make a long story short. What should i do? I also have a 6 yr old and i havent been w her father since she was 8months and he hasnt seen her since. I have tried to be the person to him and his kids but with the family and his failure to commit, I feel like im fighting a losing battle

Welcome to the board ifoundme08,


Why is his family living with you? Is this something that can be resolved?


Also did you say that he isn't letting your daughter move out of the house with you? That isn't right. He can't keep you from having your daughter.

Welcome to the board ifoundme08,


You need to see an attorney RIGHT NOW before he files any paperwork saying you abandoned your child by leaving her with him.

well his grandmother lives with us because her own children wont deal with her because she treats their wives like she do me. She is nosy. My boyfriends father which is her son died when he was 7 and she has been attached to him since. But she makes it a point to let people know that

I am sorry but if he is keeping your daughter from you for any reason, than he isn't a good guy.

You need to do what is right for your children. They shouldn't live in such turmoil. Get out and get custody.
