I have been in a relationship for two years now. July 09 we had a son.

My issue comes from the fact that my girlfriend contributes very little to our mutual happiness.

She works, I work from home and care for our son.

I pay the rent, provide a car for her to use to get to her job, cook, clean and generally try to keep the peace. In May she wrecked my car and whenever I try to recoup money for damages she acts as if I'm wrong. She doesn't pay any rent or utilities, just lives there and acts as if I owe it to her. I am a person who would like to raise my son in a household where he has both of his parents so I continue living like this. It's just becoming a hassle for me as I could do this alone and have less stress. She acts as if I need her to live, when in fact it's quite te other way around. Do I tell her to step off or what? It's hard knowing in this society even though I am the best father I can be I am still legally a non-custodial parent though he spends up to 60 hours alone with me. It would be like kicking my son out too. I don't want that, but how do I get rid of his mother. I think Im damned if I do damned if I don't.

For the past 3+ years I have been in an intense relationship with a young lady whom I adore. We have lived together for close to all of 3 years we were like married people.

In early May she began a new job at a marketing firm, she has become very confident and I began to notice a slight change in her attitude towards me. In the past week 7/3/07 she didn't even come home from work one night due to "Team Night" with her co-workers, something which I know exists, nevertheless she didn't call at all I was worried sick. The following day July 4th, I attended a BBQ with her and her co-workers, all was good.

Friday was normal, then Saturday when we usually hang out together after she gets off work she didn't call and didn't show up to our home due to work related activities. I hate to admit it, but I had a hunch she may be playing me for a co-worker so I drove through an apartment complex where I thought "he" lived, sure enough there she was.

Am I just paranoid? She just decides not to call?

I don't want to get chicken caught in my grill, I mean my mouth is like the thing that sank the Titanic. I don't want to have chicken wings and crumbs between my white and blue princess cut diamonds.

I have been friends with a girl for about 5 years. We've had a lot of sex, and we get along very well. She's never made a verbal commitment to me, though her actions say that she is committed. I'm puzzled.
