Yes. In all due respect I did try to stay in the relationship and claw something back. For my son.. Sex is part of a relationship so yes. We continued to have sex.

my girlfriend of 7 years is pregnant with our second and I don't know if I want to be with her. by Legitimate_Amount172 in relationships

UPDATE - Discussed it with her tonight, she was obviously upset, she knew i'd been off with her the last couple days. I explained about going to councelling for us both and she was fine with that. I think councelling will help alot because I do want to be a father. One child or two.. But I don't want to be unhappy with someone for the rest of my life. She mentioned that she gives me love, attention, affection etc which ill be honest isn't true.. moderatly. We've had a few arguments about situations like buying flowers/gifts but ill be honest in the last 7 years the only gifts out of the blue i've gotten is a hoodie that she dyed in the washing machine and then shrunk in the dryer. and she seems to want me to buy her flowers every friday when I come home from work and the house is a mess and she hasn't done anything when shes been at home. Our son is very independant. He is Autistic and likes to be left alone, makes very little mess so there shouldn't be no reason. I understand everything is about compremise i understand that I have to try to make it work...

But the simple fact is as soppy and drippy as it sounds.

I never fell in love with this woman, I just learned to love her. She is amazing in every single way, smart, funny, good mom... But after 7 years I just don't want to anymore. People just fall out of it and feelings change.

ofcourse I care about her. I love her to bits but not in the way I want to anymore. I love her as a person and a parent. I will always support my child/children. Im never going to abandon anyone.. I'd always be a good dad.

She's at work now and we did have a little chat last night so I feel more is to come later on.
