Ok my girlfriend had a baby about 7 months ago. I've been with her for almost 9 months. The first couple months were great and when she had her baby it still was amazing to be with her. Even though it's not my baby I do love him like my own and only being 17 and in school is hard but lately (the past 3-4 months) she is been acting weird. She takes everything so seriously, she won't wrestle or play around like she used to and when I try she tells me how immature I am and hits me. The good times are getting farther apart. I can only take so much more she constantly nags me I try my best to help out but she says I never do it right I don't know if it's the hormones from the baby or what but will someone tell me how to deal with this easier or when will it end

Maybe she likes me, i say i don't want a hug, when really I just want a hug, without asking. It's nice to just have it done, not have to ask for it to be done

If she hits you, you are in an abusive relationship and it will only get worse. Get out now.

You are not legally an adult, you have no legal relationship to the baby (blood, marriage or adoption) and gf will inevitably use the child as a weapon against you. Count on it.

If you truly love the baby as your own then your only option is to call Child Protective Services NOW!!!!!!! (You can remain anonymous). Do NOT go near the bitch again.

Boonridge McPhalify agony auntmaybe she doesn't want you watching him all night and messing up your grades...

she's probably frustrated at the real implications of her situation and that although you are with her she maybe feels insecure in a way that might not be the case if you were the real dad. bringing up a baby on your own is a real and very difficult option and probably worries her.

The real dad wants nothing to do with him he's a druggy and ever since he was born I started trying in school my grades are the best they been. And I feel I have to do something w me life so I can be a better father the what mine was to me. Yes I've thought about if it is what I want and it is I do love her and some may say I'm stupid cause I'm 17 and say I love someone but I do. To me she is gorgeous and I tell her she is beautiful every day because she is. But it seems the more I try to do good she pushes me away and it's stressing me out how much longer will this go on? I know she's tired and I tell her I'll watch him thru the night even though we have school but she always refuses and then later tells me I never spend time w him idk how to handle this how can I make it easier on her

Boonridge McPhalify agony auntsounds like the reality of being a parent is making her grow up fast. you have to think is this relationship what you want? is it possible she has post natal depression cos she sounds moody...

what can i say- its not your kid but you say you are bringing it up, how much of your money goes towards this baby and where does the financing to keep it in food and clothes come from. she may resent you not having a job already but you have to meet your own needs for an education.

where is the baby's real dad and what kind of child support is he providing for it?
