Should I keep trying to fix my relationship?

We started dating 3 yrs ago. Everything was perfect. We ended up moving in together after dating for 2 mths. He had told me he hadn't dated anyone for a year, but that he had lied. He only lied, because it was a habit. He lied all of the time, it seemed. I got pregnant. He lost his job. He forced me to get an abortion, then disappeared a few days before I did it. He told me that he loved me, but he couldn't handle me. 3 months later, he came back, and said that he was just scared, because everything moved so fast. He said it was all his fault, and that nothing was mine. 2 weeks later, I was pregnant. His grandparents had a house to give us, but it fell through. He lied for 3 mths about having a job. 2 wks before the baby was born, he left, and said I had to give her up for adoption. I didn't. He came back 2 mths later. We've been together for 1 yr. He has lied to me in that time about jobs and another girl(online). He wants to fix things, but keeps telling me that I have to change. ?

If there is a need for you to "fix" a relationship or one another you do not share unconditional love. There will always be issues between you two. And have you read your question back to yourself hun? He has lied the entire time you have been together, he has ditched you when you needed him the most. Is this how you wish to continue? And what about what that teaches your daughter? Would you want her to grow up thinking this is how men are supposed to treat women? I am not being judgemental just giving you some things to seriously think about.

If 'You' think it's worth saving, then yes. If not, start your healing process. Good Luck!

You wont change who you are, and neither will he. He will move from one job to the next all through his life, he'll probably screw you over and over again until you learn to stand up for yourself, To value yourself that you deserve better than this loser. Just remember that what decisions you make now, affects your child. is your happiness and your childs not the most important?

If this man of yours doesnt make you a priority in his life, then why are you making him yours?

Issues like this never change with people like this....look out for you and your child. You will be much happier for it. If he could give up his own child for adoption and think it just that easy, he doesn't deserve you or that child. Good Luck!!

this is not a relationship, you are allowing this man to be in your life and he is as you said lieing to you all the time you need to put yourself first. End it with him find someone that will put you first and formost, in all relationships it is a give and take it is never 50/50 all the time but if 80% of what you need you get then this is a relationship worth working on to keep if you only get 20% and that 20% is not worth having then you need to end this relationship and move on because it shows he is not capable of being someone who knows what it takes to be in a relationship.
