[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Truthfully don’t understand what divorce solves. Now you’re a single mom raising an infant spending money and time on and in court. That’s the life you did sign up for? I think you’re past the point of getting the life you wanted. Not to mention the statistics of kids growing up in a broken home are ABYSMAL. Most of life is dealing with consequences from earlier decisions - both good and bad. You married him knowing what he was like, and brought a child into that relationship. It’s not just about you anymore. [/quote]

It would free OP up to find a better SO, and be less lonely. Maybe the kid could have a step parent who doesn't view spending time together as a burden.[/quote]

And if she doesn’t? She is a single parent 100% of the time and on one income and the kid has generational consequences.

I know a lot of women who married man-babies, OP. They end up being the adult in the relationship. Sometimes these men improve when the kids are older
and require less sacrifice. Whatever you do, be smart. Prioritize paying off any educational loans, or other debt during the marriage and fund a 529 for this kid now. Do not have more kids than you can care for alone (imagine what he would do with 2 in the mix)? If there is enough money for it, hire weekend help that he pays for for the hours he spends away. Even havi  my another pair of hands while you are there takes some of the stress off. Show him what his fantasy habit is costing in reality.[/quote]
