Sometimes I feel ignored due to my boyfriends child: Advice?

So he’s is doing the right thing and giving his child 100% of his attention!!! It’s women like YOU! Who fuk up a father n child relationship! Move the fuk on to a single man! Because you will never be number 1 in a mans life who has children and you shouldn’t expect to be! So if you’re trying to weasel your way to get more time and attention and feel a type of way because when he has his daughter and gives her all his attention you need to find another man!

He gives me all the attention I want :see_no_evil::see_no_evil: Jesus. You should leave you clearly can’t deal with being 2nd best which is what you will and should always be compared to his child.

Sounds to me like a good father. You however sound far to immature to be in a relationship with a man that has children.
Maybe an unattached man who can shower you with the much needed attention you crave is more suited.

I think everyone agrees that u sld tell him u don’t or can’t handle it because he has a kid.Cause if u can’t handle when she’s 4 what will u do when she gets older and wants to spend more time with daddy.move on find someone that will spend there time worshipping u the way u think they should.

The kid isn’t the problem, the relationship is. Leave now so you both can find the kind of relationship you each deserve.

I’m seeing both sides of this. But bottom line is I think you 2 just shouldnt be together. At the end of the day that baby has been there for 4 years, and with her being his kid, and you being the new girlfriend you wont ever come first. It’s just facts. At the same time if he has his kid and doesnt have u around her he probably isnt as serious about the relationship as you think. But if you aren’t ok being 2nd to someone else’s kid my advice is dont date someone with kids.

So while not getting you something for Christmas is shitty it’s not worth leaving him for. All the rest that you said I’m ignoring. The days he has his daughter all his attention should be on her. Especially at 4 years old. Have you met the child yet? If you haven’t then the child probably doesn’t know you exist so calling or texting when she’s around is gonna lead to questions he isn’t ready to deal with.

You have some serious growing up to do.

So you just need a man with no kid or a dead beat dad?

My only question is is why would you ask a bunch of mother’s if how you feel is fair when most of them are dealing with dead beat dad’s?

Like hey you mother struggling to get your baby daddy to not be a shit—am I wrong to be jealous of this dude’s kid because he actually dad’s?

If he only has limited time with his child then let him have that time with her. There are so few fathers willing to put their kids first. If you’re not ok with this then you need to just let go and move on.

his child is and will ALWAYS come before you, as a child should… if you cant deal with a man who has a child and gives that child priority AS HE SHOULD, then dont date a man with kids… period. he is a good man, let him go be with a good woman who isnt threatened by a man who gives his child the ranking she deserves… youre petty

You should be with a man with children. Children trump everything and everyone. Always. A four year old… Well any old child… Takes up every waking moment and the ones the child is asleep… Every thought.
He sounds like a great dad! Full effort and attention to the child when he has it. Which i am assuming isn’t full time therefore even more reason for him to cram in as much daddy daughter time as possible. Children come first. When you have kids you will understand. Especially if you only see the child limited time.

I can relate, I married a single dad of 2 and had 0 kids. At first. It was an adjustment, but you have to accept its part of the deal and move forward. I never expected him to not put his kids first. But having no kids of my own, I had to adjust myself.

Honestly, there are times when my husband works 3, sometimes 4 shifts ina row and I forget to message him or I get so swept up in the bedtime routine and trying to wrangle the kids that I don’t call to have them say goodnight. Sometimes people get busy and what is immediately in front of them takes precedence. If you can’t handle that, you meed to cut him loose. If you want to stay with him, talk to him about how you’re feeling. Youve been with him less than a year. He may not be ready to start integrating you into her life, and as her father, that’s something you have no say in and need to suck up and deal with. You’re jealous of a 4 year old. Find a new perspective or find a new man.

Suggest going out with him & his child. To the Park, a museum, to eat, Chuckie Cheese, a movie… If he wants you to be in his life, u eventually will be a part of his child’s life. If not, you are just there for the moment. If he is your boyfriend, child or not. You should of at least got a card or candy for Christmas. Either he is still involved with his child’s mother, or he is not as into you as u are him… Talk to him, but be prepared to leave him for some1 who will be interested in you whether they have a child or not. Single parents are capable of dating and still be VERY ATTENTIVE time their child

It’s his child! You knew he had one going in now stuck it up or get out!

For fucking real? Please leave him and save him and his child the misery. You will never be more or important, or even anywhere close to as important.

Wow. He should be focussed on his child and not texting and calling you. I’m afraid that’s what happens when you choose to be with someone who has kids. You are not a priority in their life. Their child comes first and so they should. If I were you I’d end it now, as you will never be first priority and if you arent happy with that choose to be with someone without children for your own sake and him and his child

If you’re uncomfortable date someone without children. I’m not trying to bash, but I wish my kids dad would even just call. If you’re jealous over his time with his daughter walk away now.

In the words of my 19 year old with whom I shared this with:
“Yes, you are overthinking this. You are you overthinking your importance. You have only been around for 10 months. His child should come first. He SHOULD be paying attention to his daughter and not his phone. You have not been around long enough to be your included in every second of his parenting time. Your attitude spells out why.”

Props to him for putting his child before a significant other- That’s how it should be. You’ve been dating for 10 months. If you’re jealous then break things off. Imagine if you were with someone that got jealous of your own child? How would you feel? A parent should always put their child first and I think you sound incredibly selfish. if you need to have all the attention in the world date someone without kids.

Maybe it’s best if you leave because his attention is where it needs to be. No sense in calling anyone names. Some people just don’t handle it well being childless in a relationship where the other has children.

When you are dating someone with a child, that child comes first. If you become a parent yourselfor have a future with this man and become a stepmother, you must understand that. That child did not make the choice to be here. Did not make the choice for their father to date you and they are a package deal. If he is an attentive father, yes, parenting is hard and he’s going to have less time for you. You could offer to help him out when he has her. The gift…isn’t Christmas about giving and not getting (coming from someone who does not choose to celebrate personally and got NOTHING from her fiance on that day but spoiled the hades out of them BOTH by choice) ?
