[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could you move into the apartment and then you each get one weekend day with your daughter?[/quote]

OP here. Thanks, that's a great idea.

The reality is that whenever he wants to "spend time with her", he ends up watching Youtube videos [b]in his bedroom[/b], and letting our daughter do screen time in her bedroom. Or they drive to grocery store. It is up to me if I want her to do anything else than these two activities.

I think I should give her some ideas about what to request to do when he wants to spend time with him.[/quote]

Do you have separate bedrooms at your house? That's hardly the issue in your relationship as you spend the week in different locations but I'm wondering how obvious the strain in your relationship is to your daughter. If it's very obvious to her that things are strained it may be a relief if you and your husband acknowledge it to her and explain how you are working to amicably coexist and parent her.

My advice to you would be to try speak directly with your husband about what YOU want (what do you want?). If I were in your position I would want a more respectful and amicable relationship with my partner or if that's not possible, I would want a divorce and to amicably parent my daughter. Outside of financial security I'm not sure what you're getting out of your relationship. Do you think your husband will want to stay in your marriage once your daughter goes to college? My guess is he will want to divorce and/or completely stop coming home on the weekends other than when your daughter is home from college. This is not a good way to live - for you or your child.[/quote]
