My boyfriend and I have been together 5 years. He loves to party and I'm more of a homebody. We have a one yearold son when I was pregante he went out drinking and cheated on me. I stayed because of the baby but now he wants to go out to bars and drink and stay out all night. Its not all the time only like twice a month but I have a really hard time with it. I hate it!! I want to talk to him about it but it always is a fight. Any thoughts?

Is there an unbiased person you both would trust and can go to, perhaps a priest or counselor?

Who financially supports your little family?

You want to discuss this but it always ends up in an argument? How does a discussion always end up in an argument... and you don't have to stay because of the baby if you are unhappy... is that the only reason you stayed?

If he cheated on you when you were pregnant, especially after 4 years. Hes no man.

If he doesn't wish to listen, and own up to his responsibility to you and your child, then focus on a plan to leave.

But yes, talk with a counselor or lawyer first.

His party is going to come to an end sooner than he thinks.

You don't need him to survive. Just the opposite.

While once a month is not much, the fact you can't talk without arguing is a red flag to a lack of communications.
