I got married a long while back, essentially out of sense of duty, the outcome of which is an Awesome 8 year old daughter whom i adore, She comes to stop every other weekend. She loves coming to stop and we get on great, (unfortunately the marriage ended, her Ma and I too different)... now 8 years later... i meet a lovely Gal who rings me to say she's lonesome every night and i todlle off down the road to lie and watch tv, to cuddle, and daydream of happy futures, She talks of marriage ceremonies in my garden, and loads of lovely dreamy stuff... then after a month, She's pregnant... after much deliberation and me telling her whatever her decision I'll stand by her, she decides to have the baby... then just as suddenly she wants space... then she doesn't/never wanted this to happen... doesn't want my company, thinks negatively of everything, just wants me to go round chop wood to fill the woodshed, decorate the house, says she's 98% certain she wants no relationship and I'm out on a limb... last friday was the 5 month scan, a baby daughter, Daisy May is on the way... She held my hand right through the scan... occasionally She calls round to give an update or to tell me She's lonesome.. but what can i do? it looks as though i'm to be a distant father again... i feel like a sperm donor.. and it hurts like hell to be kept so distant when all i want to do is cherish her through her troubles... yet it seems again She wants me nowhere near... I'm at a loss at what to do... all i feel is utter rejection.... I vowed i would never be the same as my father who abandoned my family, and this is so totally against all of what we had discussed when we were "best friends"... now, she prefers to introduce me (if we see anyone in public, which is rare) as her friend! I just happen to be the father of her child...This is her first child, She's 33, I'm 46... What do i do? it all just fills my mind all day long...
