This is probably not the best place to vent my frustrations

Don't feel you have to stay with her because of the baby. You can still be a good father and not be with someone you have problems with.

I feel a baby will have an easier time with two happy, but apart parent rather than two parents who stay together but have a constant state of tension and frustration in the household. Kids pick up on that.
 
Wait until the kid is 6 years old and say you are going out for cigarettes, but never come back. that way he can have that stereotypical story to tell growing up like in the movies.
 
Just before I got married I dumped my wife because she was anoying the hell out of me and I instantly referred it. It took me six months to get her back.

I would suggest a bit a distance for a while maybe buddies holiday or somthing. Then come back and be honest with her and give your self the best chance of making it work.

Good luck pal
 
I have two half sisters. One like me grew up with only her mom. The other grew up with my Dad and her mom sticking together.....myself and the sister whose parents got divorced are doing fine. The sister who grew up with my Dad and her mom staying together in a tension filled household is fucking losing it. She's had 2 dwis in the past 8 months. Take it for what it's worth.
 
Bummer dude, always use protection. Keeps you from shitty situations like this.

Wish I had some better advice for ya bub.

At least try counseling and working it out.

If you don't want to do that, fine just don't complain when you're working 2 jobs to afford child support and she is raising your kid with another man. Divorces are so common these days as are step families, etc and it's not the end of the world. Just at least try first.
 
Dr. Phil says that you have a responsibility to exhaust every avenue to make it work once you have a child. Don't ask me how I know this. This means you need to do counseling and all of that other jazz to see if you can make it work. If not, then you leave.
 
I really don't understand why so many turn to counseling.

If you aren't happy in the relationship does it really make sense to pay someone an exorbitant amount of money to essentially attempt to talk you back into loving that person?

You take relationship advice from Dr Phil?

I agree. My ex was self-centered and deluded herself into believing she's a victim and she sacrifices a lot while having such a hard life (she has almost no responsibilities and she complains about trivial crap like someone listening to loud music on the train).

Counseling won't change her personality and it won't convince me to put up with it so it's just a waste of time and energy. Move on so you can be happy instead of constantly frustrated.
 
Do you take Oprah Winfrey as your lord and savior?

I look at Dr. Phil for overall guidance, Oprah for emotional, and Dr. Oz for health. They are my holy trinity.
 
All the information you need regarding life is nicely condensed into 3 hours of television, all conveniently broadcasted through the same station too!
