Don't ever think it's "too mean" to break up with someone, especially if you're in an unhealthy relationship. This is how people get stuck in bad relationships.

Have you tried talking to him about how you feel? It may shed some light on the situation, he might have no idea he's hurting and pushing you away. If he can't have a civilized conversation with you about your feelings, leaving may be the right thing to do.

Yes I have talked to him and he says he's sorry but I don't believe him. I live him don't get me wroung but he has not appoligized for doing what he did and I also through în that he spend too much time at his friends house and don't me wroung I understand guys need there guy time but he geta out of work showers then he's right out the door so I aşi him ifhhe can just stat home and he responded with a smart remark and said I'm going to do what I want and if you don't like it then its your Problem ;(( then he said that to sorry about what I do not what he does I'm really confused and really depressed I'm 20 Tests old and I take care of my daughter alone fro showering her to doing her hair, I cook clean do laundry and noe managing school I don't know what to do plzzzz help!!

***i asked him if he could stay home?

Kick him to the curb if he's acting like that! There are plenty of guys out there that will treat you better. If this man won't treat you the way you want to be treated, then get rid of him.

If you can't bring yourself to leave him, then I'm afraid until you stand up for yourself, this will never change for the rest of your life.

Tell him if he can't be a father and responsible adult, he has to leave, and get a roommate like yourself - a young woman with a child, and you can share child care while in school.
