Today’s topic: In love with child Good Morning Steve and the crew, Let me start off my clarifying the title. I am a 30-year-old woman in love with a man and I have a child. I have been dating my fianc for two years. We have been engaged for seven months. I am very much in love with him and I am confident that he loves me and wants to be there for my 13-year-old son. But with every relationship there are ups and downs. My fianc is so difficult to deal with sometimes. He is not the most outgoing or friendly guy. Sometimes I am not even sure what to say to him because it may piss him off. For example: I asked him the other day if he was comfortable while he was at my house (Yes, we live separately.) I asked because he locks his wallet and keys up in his brief case more often than not. I promise you I didn’t ask in an aggressive manner or anything like that ( I was just curious.), but this sparked a day-long argument. He told me to stop asking him so many questions. I am always shocked at the arguments we have and I can’t quite figure him out. I know relationships are perfect but should this be happening? I am so in love with him but more importantly, I want my son to have a positive male role model in his life, which makes my decision to leave or stay so difficult. Please provide some advice, morning crew. Signed, In love with a man that is difficult to love
