michelleAKAmandi agony auntMander sweetie,

some men don't care what you want or how good your life is. There mind is on themselves and you don't matter, with the exception of being there when they want sex.

They can do this because they obviously don't have a conscience and again... they don't care.

The other suggestion/advice I have is to be done with him. You've done it once, do it again and find that person that will return your love many times over and have a baby with them.

You're not going to find happiness in this relationship, no matter what you do.

michelleAKAmandi agony aunteyeswideopen and birdynumnums have given you great advice.

It's crazy to want to know how to change his mind about having a child. Think about what you are asking.

You want to have a child with a man that cheated with you, on his wife, now treats you like crap and tells you that he DOESN'T want a child.

How much more information or advice do you need to make you realize this would be a very bad decision.

If you feel you can't stop taking the abuse from him, then that's one story, however; don't bring an innocent child into your mess. They don't deserve it.

Wake up sweetie, you DO NOT want a child with this man or any man like him.

Good luck, keep us informed of your thoughts and what you do.

Michelle

PS - If he cheated on his wife with you... he will more than likely cheat on you with someone else.

A female reader, birdynumnums Canada +, writes (11 September 2008):

birdynumnums agony auntWhy on earth would you want to have a baby with someone who treats you like crap? Babies don't fix marriages or relationships, they don't act like cement and keep people together or fix what is broken. You will be doing a great disservice to your Child, that brand new PERSON, by bringing them into a relationship that is so dysfunctional.

Instead of going forward with a relationship that has been sucking the life out of you for so long, get into therapy and find out why you are allowing yourself to be treated this way by some else for so long. You do deserve a relationship where you are loved and cherished by someone else, but YOU are the person that is allowing ALL of this to happen to You.

"""""You cannot change other people, you can only change Yourself."""""

Until you realize this, you are stuck in the mud and just spinning the tires. You can't move forward with someone who isn't even interested in your emotional well being. He has been entirely self-involved and selfish for most of his lifetime and has been using you for a decade without any commitment. He cheated on his wife, which is NEVER a good sign, even if it was With You. It's time to consider that the only way to get what you want for yourself is to be with someone other than this person, and that you have to love yourself more than you love this man who does nothing for you but waste your time. I'm assuming, of course, that you wrote in here to see how other people honestly view your relationship and that you truly want honest opinions from all different viewpoints, so please take this opinion in the spirit in which it was written. I hope that you will be able to make some difficult and necessary decisions in order to move on with your life and find some happiness. Best of luck, Dear.
