Just because you have a child, does not mean your should keep trying to make a relationship work. If anything, it will hurt the child because an unhealthy relationship isn't just bad for the people in it, but their close friends and family as well.

spacefem answered Saturday July 21 2007, 5:42 pm: usually if you're asking this question, you should give up.
You should try to make it work if you:
- Are married
- Have a child
- Can point to obvious things that are changing, so you know your problems will soon be over (ie, he's had the flu lately, when he recovers he'll be in a better mood)
Whatever you do, don't stick around trying to make it work just because you've been together for a long time, that's a horrible mistake people make! I've seriously heard girls talk about, "I know he's a jerk, but we've made it for two years, there's so much invested in this relationship I don't want to give up!" So what, you're going to stay with him for the rest of your life because he managed to keep you pinned down for two years? That's insane. Get out, there are millions of other guys and relationships to try out, and if you were really meant to be with this person, you'll end up back together.
