The day I had dreamt about is finally here... I go to court tomorrow and I am afraid. I haven't stopped eatting since last friday! It's been almost a year 11 months since I've seen my lo's father!

I am afraid of him honestly.. I'm afraid of the person I am when I'm around him... and how I always allow him to make me feel like the scum of the earth. I have toyed around with the idea of not putting him on support because in my magical land of a mind I think that If I don't maybe he'll want to be around.. I know realisticly it's not true because he's never EVERRRRR stood behind one thing nor has he ever come through on anything he's promised. He's so angry and bitter from how he feels he was wronged that he can't see that the only person who has suffered or will suffer is my daughter.

I don't know if I have the streghthed to stand up to him guys.....

I still have nightmares about this guy! and the fact that he all of a sudden started calling and acting nice makes my blood boil. He doesn't know her name, how to spell it or what she looks like, he doesn't know anything about her!

    So sorry you're going through this. Don't give him any power to control how you feel. You seem like such a caring, active mom and that's what is most important. He can never take that from you and will never have the bond you share with your daughter. Stay strong! :flowerforyou:

    Be strong JayTee, be strong for Lo. You keep the power and control over your life and your daughter's. If he is not going to support and its going to cause you and your child stress way it out and do whats best for your little family. We are behind you and so is God.

    We went and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.

    He did a good job of making himself look bad by the way he carried himself.

    I'm thankful for the strength that came over me to carry forward for my lo.

    Praise the Lord! I pray each day/week/month/year you are stronger than the last.
