SO of over a year has left me and my kids. he was their step father. they called him dad. i made him my whole world I never thought it would come to this. i had to take my kids to my parents because being in the house is too painful. a couple days ago he said he just wanted space and time for alil bit. he was calling me baby and that he loved me yesterday. i found out the truth this morning that hes ALREADY talking to someone else and doesnt want to come see us at all anymore. im completely heartbroken and devestated. my girlfriend came over who happens to be my neighbor to talk. i told her and she said you have to dish it right back to him. make it seem like he lost something good. that he'll only come back to his senses if he sees your through. i dont know what to beleive. im so hurt. i want to be strong and not want him anymore but its eating me up inside. i took him out of that dark place when we first met and i feel betrayed by him now. he never even said goodbye to my kids. they are so confused. he has two kids too but they dont live with him. i honestly think and my neighbor thought this too hes being immature and doesnt want the family responsibilities right now. i need some advice before i self destruct.

Perhaps this is for the best. If he can leave the way that he did and talk to someone else so soon then he is an ass. I honestly don't think he is worth your time. There is somebody better out there for you. Your best bet is to focus on your children. They need you the most, so be as good of a mom to them as possible. I know it can be hard to parent when you want to die inside, but you can do it!

You don't want someone back who can act that way. I've been in the same position and you are better off without him. He is taking the easy way out and immature. He obviously wasn't that into the family idea if he's moving on already. It's hard, but you don't need that mama. It isn't ok for him to play with your head. Stay strong.

Never make anyone your "world"! Your kids and yourself should always come first. You do not need him in your life, and neither do your kids if he up and left.

It's best not letting kids get attached and introduced to boyfriends when they will come and go.
