Today, I went to break up with my psychotic bitch of a girlfriend after months of abuse. When she opened the door, her 5-year-old son ran up to me, smiling and calling me "DADDY!" for the first time. Now I don't have the heart to dump the psycho and devastate her son. FML

Same thing different taste

If she is abusive towards you, I would have to wonder if her 5 year old is enduring the same thing? If so, I'd say get out of the relationship and look into ways of getting her help.

If you're unhappy, get out the of the situation. Keeping her son happy isn't worth the cost of your happiness

Unless you plan to go to the extent of marrying this woman and then adopting the kid so you can fight for custody, you aren't doing him any favors by sticking around and having your dysfunctional relationship serve as an example for what relationships should look like.

The damage from you staying and him watching you two fight all the time would be way more than the disappointment he would feel if you just left her now. It sucks because you don't want to hurt him, but you can't stay with someone that's abusive.

She probably put her son up to it

I agree... If you can find a way out of it, take it. Though with my experience with abusive people I fear she might convince the kid to hate you and that you're a bad person because you left. Be careful, OP.

that's what you get for persuing leftovers!

Meanwhile, I bet you are a great catch! I am sure you never have to worry about dating the "leftovers" since you only attract the hottest and greatest women.

So called "leftovers" are substantially better than you I assure you of that
