Really, we have to accept when things are changing. This relationship is over and unless you want it to be left in your side like a wasp’s sting, you have to learn to take a deep breath and move on. He’s not your child’s father, and she didn’t even meet him, so she’s not lost anything, and it’s important you focus on her and your future. You’re only 23. That’s a lot of life left.
Post here, join groups for single parents (there’s a Gingerbread one in Greenstead for example). This one man is just nine months of your life – you had at least one other significant relationship before him, and you’ll have others afterwards.
Time to put on your shoes and start walking with a smile on your face into the future.
All the best.
