No, that's not a relationship... you need to really look at this and make sure that you're doing the right thing by staying in this odd relationship.

He's your child's father, and it's great that he's around, but you need to QUIT sleeping with him and get on with your life.

Moo's Mum agony auntHe is in a relationship of convenience. I would move on from him if I were in your position it seems like he just comes to you when it suits him and it would make me feel used in that position. By all means involve him in your son's life but not in your personal life. He doesn't have your best interests at heart.

No! Because when this man is good and ready he will just leave you anyway? Worst still you are unhappy and that will be picked up by your child?

His commitment is half-hearted, mind could this be put down to a cultural issue?

Kenj agony auntIt’s good he is taking responsibility for your son, and this is the least he can do and should do.

However it's clear from what you say that he loves you but is not in love with you.

Your more like a friend with special privileges to him, in some way you are being used by him. He won’t admit other girls because he does not want to loose your contact.

You should find a man who appreciates you for who you are, who will accept you and your son and love you for who you are not what you can give.

Good luck.
