About Me

Hello Ladies

My name is Nicola, I'm 25 and mum to Imogen [03.05.2008] and Andrew [08.9.2009] both my children are from a previous relationship, I had to leave my ex partner due to Domestic Violence in March 2009. I'm now with an amazing man who treats me with love and respect and has taken on both my children as his own! He too also has a daughter from a previous relationship too! We are now engaged and expecting our first child together in Oct 2011. My fiancé is called Alan, 30 we met in July 2009 and have been together ever since. We live in the beautiful countryside in the North East of the UK.

If you would like to know more please feel free to ask!

I don't bite!

nope he doesnt, he hasnt been in touch since i left him 24/03/2009 [omg 2 years tmr woop woop] i have got in touch with him on a few occasions and got told to f*ck off everytime

he pays no child support towards there upbringing at all either!

Tbh they are better off without him and when there old enough to understand i will explain but for now Imogen is coming upto 3 in may and andrews only 18mths in my opinion too young to understand x

It's awesome that you up and left him! Also awesome that you found a great man after the hell you most likely went through! I love happy endings!

My mom was a single mom. I was 3 when my "dad" decided that he no longer wanted to be married or have a child. He kicked my mom out (after he had previously convinced her to quit her job, that he would provide....ya right!) and so needless to say we had a rough time but we came through and she worked 2 jobs at a time to make sure I had everything I needed. I love and respect my mom so much for that. After their divorce my "dad" went to live with his parents where he remains. Strangely enough I am very close with them (well my grandfather has since passed away) and would visit often. When I did visit he would leave. Never paid a dime of child support. That is not a man imo. He was also abusive both physically and verbally towards my mom. Growing up my mom did not say much about him, I formed my own opinion and it's not a good one obviously. It's tough when kids are involved, like you said, they are too young to understand. You know what? It's better that way! I know I'm better off having never known him and never seeing him than known him and to be constantly disappointed by him.

My story, growing up, is very similar to Chickie's. I didn't meet my father until I was 20 and a few weeks away from getting married. I had no interest in forming any kind of relationship with him at that point. I never cared and I don't feel like I missed out on anything.

Good for you, getting out of that situation!

thanks ladies

I know now that ive done the best thing for my children!
