He isn't taking me to the wedding

I finally got a text back from my man this morning answering my question as to if he is taking me to his best friends wedding. He is taking his 10 year old son. No one takes kids to a wedding! He should be taking his girlfriend! I am done putting up with his hiding me from everyone. He never takes me around his friends and it will be 2 yrs we have been together in January and I can't have "In a relationship" on facebook. I am supposed to go house sit for him tomorrow but he can find someone to always have his back now. I'm done. This is the exact same problems we had when we were together for a year a few years back before we broke up. He is just never going to treat me how I deserve.

I don't think he deserves you. Time to stand for your right. You will find someone who treats you well and be proud to be with you.

I don't think I will find anyone in this town but its better to be single then depressed because of this guy all the time. He wants to act single all the time then he can go ahead and be single!

@responsiveme I write here at mylot otherwise I pretty much keep my problems to myself. My sister is going to the wedding and since I am not I am going to be expected to watch her 4 month old daughter. She wants me to take her over night but that is just to much for me. She cries constantly and doesn't let you put her down. I am going to be really upset that day knowing I should be at the wedding. The last thing I will want to do is babysit.

It sounds to me as if you are doing the right thing - it didn't work when you were living together, and it's obviously not working now.

Yeah I agree this is all just pointless to keep allowing him to treat me this way. He just texted me and said he's sorry but he's taking his son the groom is like his uncle. Kids just don't go as dates to weddings its weird. I told him I'm sick of being hidden and after this long I still can't put in a relationship on facebook its pathetic. I told him to have someone else sit at his house tomorrow I'm done.

Don't worry. There is a right man whom you deserve. A man that will always love you and ready to know you to his parents and friends. A man thay will treat you as his queen. :D

He said that he and his son and the groom have done a lot together over the years where as He, I and the groom have not. He never takes me around his friends nor invites me to anything so of course we haven't done anything together.

Aww I can feel you. Any woman will get upset if something like this would happen to her. I think your decision of moving on is right! If he can't even publicly say that you're his girlfriend then what's the point, right?

I am so sorry to read this. I was really hoping that he would do the right thing and bring you to the wedding. It is just not right that he is bringing his son instead. That would be a breaking point for me too. You deserve so much better.

I really think him taking his son is just an excuse so he doesn't have to take me. It's ridiculous.

@shaggin It really is. There is not reason why you should not be at that wedding since you are in a relationship with him and have been for two years.

I know. The good ones love to introduce you to their friends. You'll find someone who includes you more in their life. It's sad though.I'm happy to be single, but I'm older now so my hormones aren't calling LOL

When he moved out is when I should have ended it. He just prolonged it this way. I'm done accepting his excuses. A month or so back he told me how much he loves me and how much I mean to him but he never shows it. I needed to see it not just hear it.

I told him taking his son instead of his gf or both is weird. He said he can only take 1 and that the groom and his son and him have done a lot together over the years and me him and the groom have not. I told him he doesn't do anything with me so of course I haven't spent time around his friends that they probably don't even know we are together. He replied that he is taking his son who is excited to see the groom get married its like his uncle. I told him I'm tired of being hidden that after this long I can't even put in a relationship on facebook. I told him to have someone else sit at his tomorrow that I am done. His reply was "whatever" see shows how little he cares with his replies.

I tried not to think about it today. I took a facebook friend geocaching today to show her what it was all about. She loved it! It was nice having someone to talk to. I hope I wasn't to mopey for her. I am quite queasy with sadness right now so I think I am going to go to bed and hope to feel better in the morning.

@DianneN I'm not really comfy in it I just loved him enough to put up with everything no matter what. He never appreciates me until he loses me. He is never going to grow up I need to just stay away.

@shaggin Sometimes, it's difficult to make a change when you get too comfy in a relationship. Good luck and be strong!

I'm sorry he isn't treating you with respect. It may hurt you now, but I believe in the long run you'll be better off. I know there is someone who'll treat you like you deserve to be.

Thank you! It is time I just walk away and stop letting him treat me like I am worthless all the time. It would be better for me to be single and alone then to continue allowing him to walk all over me and not care.

I feel dumb for waiting so long. I still wish he would text me and tell me he is sorry and post on facebook that we are together and take me to meet his friends. That is just wishful thinking he obviously didn't really love me like he said.

He never takes me around his friends. He never invites me to anything. He doesn't want to add in a relationship on facebook. It just feels like he doesn't want anyone to know we are together.

@ms1864 He cheated on me when we were together before I found out about a month after we broke up. I wonder at times if he keeps things quiet with me so no one will know we are together and tell me if he cheats again.
