Need to vent:
You would think after being gone for a month for training you'd want to spend as much time as possible with your 2 month old daughter but nope. You'd rather fly to Vegas for a day to surprise your girlfriend who you're supposed to pick up from the airport tomorrow. He did visit her for a few hours yesterday and tells me that he planned on sleeping over but he had to go to drill today. I don't know why I keep thinking he's gonna change and put our daughter first before anything else. I'm trying my best to make our situation work but it's hard when he does shit like this. Constantly lying and put our child last on his list of priorities. Grow the fuck up. 😡
I have some female friends who went through the same situation but they got handle with child support and having their higher commander involved somewhat @jemmool
Yeah he just came back from his annual training so it was a month long. But yeah he usually only has drill once a month on weekends. We were together for 7 years and it's so sad and it pisses me off that he puts her before our child. He wasn't really there during my pregnancy and he's rarely there now. Only when it's convenient for him. His gf and I surprisingly get along cause we're very very similar. He always tries to use drill as excuses when I know when he lies. Last time he used drill was saying he had to go on a mission down south but he really went to Disneyland with his gf and I was 6 months pregnant at the time. He has never spent a full day with our daughter. To other people he makes it seem like he's a loving father who is always there for her when in reality he's not. If he doesn't man up then best believe I will take his ass to court. Have you been in a similar situation or know someone who has? @deafmama16
He will have many days off but training is mostly weekends. Regardless of him having a girlfriend his daughter should be his first priority and if he doesn't want to man up. Find his commander and let him know what's going on or child support or both. Army don't play about family.
