Am I in a toxic relationship?

They won’t give him custody just bc your young but anything else mentioned here you need to go. Don’t stay in that relationship. I was the one who worked two jobs while my x didn’t work and pissed away all the money he would make when he got an under the table job. He cheated every chance he could but I never had solid evidence. He did however do me the biggest favor of all when he left me pregnant. I as finally able to meet someone who treats me right.

I hate to be the one to say this first, but somebody has to…he doesn’t want your baby, honey, he wants to control you, use you and exploit you and he’s willing to use your baby to do it. Step back and take a good look at this scene…what would you tell your own child, if they were in your shoes? Exactly. You know what to do, and you know that you have to make the change. This jerk is getting exactly what he wants, at your expense. Time to fly, honey.

I would leave if you say is true, but I need both sides of the story if I am going to make a decision, it’s difficult to believe woman keep falling for that absolute worst dude in the world every time.

He sounds like a little boy and no Hunny CPS wouldn’t even give him to him’ they take your side all the way your working you have your own place, and he’s just a mooch, sounds like your raising him to" leave him kick him out if he doesn’t leave call the cops delete and block him on social media, that’s not a man men would help you in every way,

Take your baby and go.

That’s a toxic and abusive relationship. They won’t take your child just because you’re young and him calling CPS isn’t gonna do anything if you’re not abusing or neglecting your child. He’s try to scare you and manipulate you into staying. My advice is take your baby and leave ASAP

Let that dumb fk call CPS. You already know this is a toxic relationship. He doesn’t care about you or the consequences of what he does and it’s not going to get better. Leave him. He’s enjoying a free ride and using your feelings and child as ammunition to get what he wants. Tell him to get his shit together give him a timeline and then get out. Stop wasting your time and energy on this waste of space. You and your child deserve better!! Good luck!

I am now a single mom of four and happier than i have ever been…
Your story is so similar to mine I hope you walk away from that toxic situation…

They wouldn’t take the baby away from you bcs they see that you’re stable and actually take care of your child mean while he’s doing the complete opposite. You gotta leave this relationship before something crazy happens.

Get out quickly. You and your baby go elsewhere. You can do it

Walk away from everything and just get yourself out of there you won’t miss the material items but if you stay there you are going to miss yourself and be in a repetitive pattern that will continually cause you heartache and pain. Do not listen to his threats if you need resources please reach out❤

Sounds like both of you need to grow up quickly

Take your baby and leave

Yes, this is toxic. You would be wise to leave, you’re ALREADY doing it on your own. Good job mama! When you leave, he won’t call anybody and no court would give him custody. Those are empty threats to make you stay. What he WILL do when you leave is beg for you to come back and guilt trip you for “leaving him with nothing” or “taking the baby from him.” The truth is, if you two were that important to him he’d man up, get a job and license, help out with the baby and treat you with kindness and respect. He’s using you. You sound like someone with a good head on her shoulders. You can do this by yourself. I left an abusive relationship when I was 20 with 2 little boys under 3. It was scary but I had to learn to trust myself. Trust yourself, you got this! You don’t need anyone dragging you down and you don’t want your baby learning that dad’s behavior is normal. Blessings to you and baby, go build your life!!

If anything, if you were to go to court I’m sure they would give you custody because you’re financially stable. Tell him to get a job or leave.

Ha! No the courts would NOT give your baby to him over you! This is just fear tactics. Do NOT believe him and do not let him get into your head.

It’s entirely up to you what you decide to do about him, but if I were you, I’d have kicked him out. You can do better all by yourself, rather than letting his dead weight drag you down.

Courts don’t award custody based off your age. They award it based off of stability. If he is smoking weed, he’s not getting custody, not even a chance. Pack his shit up and kick him out. Call the police and ask for supervision while he leaves, then change your locks ASAP. Then file for child support, because he’ll either get a job or end up in jail.

Leave and never look back. Also… Fuck that POS guy

YES it’s toxic!! GET OUT NOW!!!

He has to scare you with lies, because there is nothing else he can do to keep you and he knows it. You have proven you are a strong woman and are worth more than you realise. Leave and don’t look back.

give him his Walking Papers. He’s trying to scare you to keep you from leaving him.

First, CPS will not give him your baby cause 1. He doesn’t have a license. 2. Doesn’t have a job. 3. He probably would fail a drug test.
You clearly do not need him if he isn’t at least helping with the baby. If you’re paying for the bills he needs to go. Is he on the lease?

File with justice court to have him evicted from ur apartment. And file a restraining order

The longer you stay, the more he will try to make you believe the awful things he says to you. So you feel worthless to try and hold you down to his level. This is so sad to me…I hope you can find the courage to leave and not look back. You’ve been pulling the financial and parenting weight anyway so it’s much better to do it on your own and eventually find someone who wants to help you, love you, and not hurt you.:heart:

Absolutely toxic. More stability and opportunities await you upon the end of this relationship. His loyalty is based on his selfish needs and his desire to control. You hold the real power and his tactics just prove he is a coward. You are strong enough to provide for yourself and your son alone. Leave him and don’t return. Let him call the police or CPS. It sounds like they won’t have any reason at all to find supporting evidence for any claims he could make about your parenting. They will investigate and back off once they see his allegations are false. It won’t be a fun experience, but peace will come once it’s over. If he really wants the relationship with you and his son then he will mature enough to prove it in actions by becoming an independent man and father. This situation sounds so familiar. I’m sorry that you’re dealing with this! Prayers and good vibes coming your way!

Girl if you have to ask on a post it probably means you are in a toxic relationship. Not to be mean or rude but red flags are everywhere. Break up. You’ll be okay. :heart:

Yes this is toxic. Don’t let him scare u by saying he will call the police and CPS. Sounds like you’re a great mom and they wouldn’t take your child and give him to your bf. He sounds like a narcissist and if I were u, I’d kick him out right away. Since you pay for everything, you definitely don’t need someone like that around you or your son. Good luck hun!

You just listed every reason you should take your baby and leave. Don’t comment to him on his threats (calling police/cps) just go!! YOU HAVE ALL THE POWER!! Good luck!!

Sounds like he is the one that is cheating…

Now do you honestly think that a judge would give him your son if they test him and he has drugs in his system or he drinks and no job no driver’s license and no way to support him?

Absolutely toxic, manipulative, and abusive. Get out.

Why are u still there.thers ways and means to get help.

Yes get out ASAP. Or since you’re the one paying the bills kick him out and don’t let him come back.

Accusers are usually the ones doing it. And if he threatens cops and CPS I suggest you ask for drug test since he’s the one smoking. I doubt they take his side of you tell them the whole truth.

He’s a :poop:! Get out now or you’ll be supporting him forever. Change the passcode on your phone and get a safe with a combination to put your car keys in. I’ll be damned if I’d lose everything for a useless POS! If he wrecks your car you’ll never get affordable insurance again.

Toxic toxic!!! He’s trying to scare you. You can get help and the law on your side don’t let him intimidate you.

Get smart and leave. You ll be fine and you ll get help ther wick for the baby,and ins threw medicaid. Dont br foolish and stay. Get a lawyer to draw papers ,tell whoever watches the baby that he is not to pick the baby ip. Be smart

YES LEAVE omg I was in this situation only he had 4 kids and I was 18 taking care of them. He would punch holes in the wall next to my head nd get mad if I didn’t let him see my phone but I COULD NOT touch his at all. And All he did was play video games,take my money when I was sleeping and cheat on me after he got off work saying he was other places. I did everything for him and his kids. I was with him for a year and a month before my parents helped me get out. Theres a lot more but that’s not the point you need to get out of there because he will never change.

The fact that you needed to ask… gives me a good idea that you already KNEW the answer prior to posting. But it is always nice to have reassurance, even if it is from internet strangers. Like everyone else has said… this is 100% toxic. He is not a mature adult. He wants someone to take care of him when it doesn’t sound like he is able to take care of himself. If he called CPS on you… what would his grounds be? It sounds like YOU’VE got your life together as much as possible while still being tied down to a loser. As hard as it may seem, you NEED a change in your life. As a child, I grew up watching my parents argue and fight 24/7. It eventually lead to divorce in my teenage years. That was the BEST thing for them. And while nobody wants their child to be in a split home… think about it from the child’s view. Would you rather see mommy upset every day? It is NOTHING a child needs to see. If you are unhappy, leave. It’s the BEST thing for your child. Staying together to be a “happy family” is not always the right answer.

Hes very much so Emotionally abusing you and minuplatating you. You already know what to do you know what’s he doing is wrong but ultimately it’s if YOU want to leave the abusiveness.

run away!!! With your child!!! Like run I. The opposite direction!!! GET OUT

I am a true believer in that if you have to ask if you are in a toxic relationship, then you are in a toxic relationship. Best wishes!

Get out get someone to help you then go to CPS yourself and I don’t think you would looose custody of your baby if you have to have a cop go with you to get your stuff as you are working 2 jobs and him none you are primary care giver then after you get out file for sole custody of your baby or he can take him and nothing the law can do and get you a lawyer it’s scary but it sounds like that would be best for you and baby

toxic as all get out. leave him before it’s to late. no judge in their right mind will give your son to him or his family

You have all rights to that baby ur two are not married Idk what state ur from but in Ohio the mothers have all rights and if u feel like ur not safe and ur baby isnt safe then by all means get up and leave and he cant call the cops on u or cps if u havent done anything wrong all the cps will do is do a house check and see if u have everything you and baby needs so my advice is get out quick as possible

You just need to leave. Have your mom or someone come get the baby “for the night” and leave alone. Also If you’re smoking pot , you need to quit , dhr will not take your baby if they don’t find you “unfit”. Which means you need to pass a drug test. He won’t get your baby if he fails a drug test, also he has no job. Don’t let him threaten and scare u. He don’t know what he’s talking about. And if it’s your apartment in your name kick him out, call the police, get a restraining order. Whatever u gotta do. I know u love him, but love your baby more
