It wouldn't be fair to not continue your relationship with this wonderful guy give it a chance,see what happens later on if it doesn't work out with him then you could go back with your ex to try again with the father of your child.

Stay right where you are girl!

If you have a man who is treating you and your child right, you hang on to him for all your worth. You are already better off than you were before.

You may have had some good times with the other guy but I'd bet the bad times were very hard on you. Its very easy to remember those good times over the bad. It helps us cope. But since you
have put it behind you for the most part, don't go back.

People who lie, usually don't change much in
that respect. He didn't respect you and he wouldn't work. You don't want your child
learning any of those qualities.

Whats changed? Nothing really. He is showing his good side because he wants you back. Thats all. Someone else has what he believes to be his. Had he taken care of you in the first place, you would still be together.

I think you need to see as little of the ex as possible. If he wants to see his child, have a relative do that for you. Whatever you do about that just do not make the mistake of thinking it will be ok because he's changed. He probably really hasn't. You need to think about that person who is treating you and your child the way a man is supposed to treat those he cares for.

Good luck. :)

honestly not to offend you, your ex seems to be not a good boyfriend. if he didn't work then lied to you, and even went to prison. what makes you think hes changed?

then again you either go back to your old ways with your ex, or expierence something new. it doesn't hurt to just see how the relationship would work, if it doesn't work then you have no problem.

just try and decide for yourself and see what happens; good luck :)
