Hi,
Looking for some legal advice here in my situation. My baby girl is born in April this year, and since before she was born me and my girlfriend have to have trust issues in our relationship. Despite the fact that I am paying towards the rent and the bills, she is still not happy with the support that she is receiving, as she has since the last month her other 2 kids in holiday in the UK.
For a couple of times now she is treating me that she will go abroad to her country (Bulgaria) and either take my girl with her or just leave her behind. Today we had another verbal argument that finished with her leaving the house with the other kids and leave my girl behind for me to take care off. The main issues are that I am working nights on a 3 on 3 off rota, making my life difficult especially that tonight I should be at work. As well as this she keeps treating me that one day she will leave the baby alone when I m at work and she will not care. Also, she keeps telling me that if she is going she will destroy the stuffs that I own that I have in the house.
To be fair, our relationship was not great since the beginning, but despite this, we have the baby because we both wanted to. Please advice me...
hi there,
from what you have described, she sounds very heartless in regards to the child. do you know if she is suffering from any post-natal depression? is her behaviour very unusual or is she always likes this?
you both have to decide what you want. do you want to continue this relationship or not? is she coming back to live with you? find out before taking any legal route.
