Not sure this belongs here, but it's technically parenting related?My son is 3 years old. I left his abusive father when he was only a few months old. We've been doing fine on our own (with the help of my family) but I've missed having a family unit of my own for myself and my son. I've dated a few people since the split but every time the other person has always said something along the lines of "I can deal with you having a kid" or "I'm okay with you having a kid." I never realized how much that upset me until my current SO said "I want to be a family with you two" and I just burst into tears. Finally, someone who doesn't view my son as an obstacle or inconvenience. Finally I've found someone who wants to love not just me but my son as well. And they aren't pressuring me at all about wanting "one of their own." They just want to be with us. They want to help me with my son and share responsibilities and I just... I feel so dang happy about it. I was feeling hopeless for a while that no one I was with would ever accept my son, but now here this person is. It's so wonderful! via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/341E0KW
