As the Mother, you will have to decide, if it is truly in the best interest of your Daughter, to remain in a Loveless relationship. The Father of your Daughter and You, should sit down and calmly discuss this. Maybe you can live apart, but the Father, still remain very involved in your Daughter's life, emotionally and financially.

being "In love" comes and goes with the seasons, it's a matter of if you love him past all of the feelings that a person gets, and by loving him, I mean do you respect him, like him, enjoy his company, see him as a friend? that is real love, but the question is do you have that?
As far as if you should leave him, I would shut your eyes, and think of your life five years from now, when your little girl is older, and has more understanding of relationships. Can you see the relationship getting any better? If not it's best to leave him when your daughter has as little understanding of the relationship as possible.
I am all for keeping families togeather on nearly every occasion, but if it's going to be the kind of relationship that has no love and respect then it's only teaching negative things to your little girl.

do you think you could fall in love with him? If the relationship is good and you just don't feel "passion" you may want to stay. Even the most passionate of relationships become less so after a while. And then you are with someone who you can get along with, who you respect, and who makes your life better. Be sure before you disrupt your family. If you fight all the time of course it is better for you and your child to end the relationship, but if not..be sure you don't give up a good thing for a fantasy.

In the long run it may hurt her worse by living in a 2 parent household with no love between her parents than living with them apart. It will bother her for sometime but in the end she should get used to it. But living in a relationship where you aren't happy is not going to make her or her father happy. I believe a relationship should not continue because of a child alone.

Try going to couple's counseling, sometimes its just a communication issue. You need to try and make this relationship work for your child's sake. However if he is completely uncooperative and refuses to try and work on the relationship then you can consider leaving him.
When you have child you give up some of your rights to date whoever you want.

you know I was just in this situation, I ended up moving out of our newly bought home and we broke up 1 wk later, so I moved out and have been living w/ good friends, I too have a child whose 3 and she is happy as can be, I just keep the same routine as I always have done, and I keep good communication between her dad and I no matter what because the kid needs to see you work together on this and they'll be fine, unless you ***** at eachother every time you see them your kid will see that and feel sad and thats when they go down hill

It's better to be out of a unstable relationship with children involved then to be in a relationship where the child will hear the drama and affect her in life.

It depends on how old your child is. If she is under 3 years she/he won't remember him anyway.
And is it "just" that you don't love him or is he abusive, has alcohol/drug problems?
However, I don't believe you should stay with your boyfriend just because of your daughter. Whom you live your life is your choice. If your boyfriend is not abusive, you can probably work out a deal, perhaps your kid could see him every other weekend?

are you helping her by staying, would you want your daughter to be in a loveless relationship, your daughter looks at everything you do and say, what are you really telling her, that just because a child is in your life you have to give up your self respect and your own need to be truly loved?????

don't leave him in bad terms, leave him so you can start a new happier life for yourself and at the same time have a civil relationship with him... I dont think that could hurt her..
