I don't know if I should stick with him. I really do love him.

It's leaving me drained, exhausted, and very much alone.

Right before I gave birth, I found out he was cheating on me, both with the mother of his first child and with a random girl he had met a few years prior to knowing me.

We can only see each other for a couple of hours every other day.

Meredith, For the sake of anonymity, let's call him X. Our grandparents were best friends back in the day, and pretty much raised our families together. Last year, my family flew out for an event of his family’s. X and…

My extended family is constantly making remarks about how I am too young, that I should be saving for a mortgage, and that once I get married I won't be able to do anything.

It escalated to where he just decided to cancel his request. Saying that I'm prioritizing my mom over him.

Two weeks ago, though, I asked him if he was truly ready to have a baby. He said no.

My mom is upset with me because she thinks I've said nasty things about her to him.

She expects us not to do anything of a sexual nature unless it's at night when she’s asleep or when she isn't at home.

I have been with my boyfriend for four years. I have two children from a prior marriage. He has two children from different relationships. I recently discovered that he has been venting to one of the mothers of his children…

There has been no affair, no abuse, no addiction issues.

How many sacrifices do you make because when things are amazing, they are amazing?

... he had been telling me that he was getting divorced, so I stopped taking my birth control

I pray that someone creates a dating app for people who are seriously not into having children.

I don't know how to bring this relationship back to us as the focal point.

He loves his kids very much, and whenever he misses a scheduled day with them (because of his business travel) he swaps it with “my” days by giving me notice.

But he doesn't want to lose his sister or father in the process, nor does he want his mother's irrational tirades to ruin our future together.

How should I approach this?

During the time we were broken up, he impregnated a woman.

Hi Meredith, Earlier this year, my grandmother died. When I say she was like my best friend, that feels like an understatement. The past few months have been challenging, to say the least. I was consumed by her illness while…

Dear Meredith, This is a question about helping someone else through a loss. I'm dealing with the death of my sibling (keeping it all generic so the parties involved don't know I am asking for advice). Obviously my sibling is…

But my boyfriend doesn't want this fresh start until he hears a sincere, heartfelt apology.

Why am I the only one who thinks it's disrespectful for her to have shown up at his parent's funeral after the horrible way she treated him?

When I feel comfortable and happy with my situation, their help ends up making me feel like I'm doing life wrong, like I'm missing something.
