It is very easy and common to get attached to young children. I doubt he still loves the ex. However, he may have become very attached to her child while they were together.
Don't let his fondness for a child get in the way of what you have together.

It could be he was the only father this kid has ever known. It sounds like he is a decent guy to still take care of a child that is not his. It's important to him because he knows the meaning of being a real man. Why does this bother you? It's not as if he is trying to get back with the kids mom.

Whenever a guy goes into a relationship with a woman who has a child, he steps into a relationship with that child as well. Especially if they were together for an extended period of time, it would be difficult not to have bonded with the child as well. Although he may have severed his relationship with her, he did not sever the one with the child. I suggest you speak with your BF and address your concern. It's best to find out the truth now rather than later.

He doesn't have to still be in love with her just because he makes his son/daughter a priority in his life. He sounds like a responsible man just wanted take care of his kid. But if you think he is in love with her talk to him about it.

Maybe it's his child, but maybe he just really bonded the the child and just because they broke up doesn't mean you forget about the child. It's possible that he can love or care about her child and not be in love with her. If they are broken up there's a reason for it so he's probably not in love with her anymore, he just wants to maintain a connection with the child, and that's really respectable.

Depending on how long your boyfriend was in the childs life. He could have been around for his birth or close to it. He could be a rolemodel also. I would watch how is is around the EX though.

well, if he is the childs father, the child should be his biggest priority...
he does not have to be in love with his ex, but his child will always be the biggest, most important love of his life...
to make this work, you can not be jealous of his child...

Children are a life changing experience. I take it that this is his first child. He doesn't love the Mommy,he loves the child... He has to see her to see the baby.
