Energy. in Since OD is shutting down....

Since talking to my friend last night, I’ve decided that I’m probably going to just leave well enough alone. I have already put too much energy into something and it’s gone nowhere and I refuse to keep doing it. If he wanted to be a Dad, he would have been one from the start. It’s not my job to try and force him to care about his child or include him where he doesn’t want a spot. I have tried setting up visitation and he doesn’t show up. I’ve mentioned him seeing her at my brother’s house and that went no where and I can’t expel any more energy into this.

I get why women just shut the Dad’s out and go on with their lives. I don’t think it’s always because they’re scorned. I think you just get sick and tired of putting yourself out there to keep dealing with the same bullshit. I know my kid’s Dad has had more chances than what he ever deserved and I can’t give him any more. All he wants to do is come around and cause problems because he’s not the one to deal with the aftermath.
