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

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

Take the kid away from her and run away or the most sensible thing to do is break up with her but try to keep in contact with her son just in case she abuses him.

I think stealing other people's children is slightly frowned upon

If you break up with her it doesn't necessarily mean you can't ever see the kid again.

I was thinking the same thing.. this is one FML that's giving me some real feels. :/ I only worry that if the girlfriend is as abusive and psycho as the FML suggests, she probably wouldn't let OP have a relationship with the child if he breaks up with her. Kind of like the type of crazy bitch that won't let the father of a child see the child unless they're together. Those females make me sick.

Run brother run, the abuse will turn you into a shell of the man you are, life should be enjoyable.

She probably manipulated him into doing it.

While heartbreaking to say good bye to an innocent child, your future will be miserable if you stay.

Is it possible she's psychotic enough to make her son call you "daddy" just to make you feel guilty? Anyway, you're going to have to break his heart someday, better do it sooner than later...

I respect you for this. only the fact that you think in this way gives you the Wright to dumb her and get your self a nice cool girl cuz any girl would be lucky to be with you and you deserve to be happy

if you break up with her now it will hurt him Less. the longer you stay the more it will hurt him.

I agree. I dont know if she's willing to let op stay in her childs life if they break up or if op wants to but staying with her because he doesn't want to hurt her son now will only hurt him in the future

if she's psycho like op said she will probably take her son away to hurry op but it's better for the kid if he leaves sooner rather than later

trust me from experience run before she traps you! i had the same and married her. then she got prego wanted me to disown my 4 other kids and destroyed my truck. You cant change them and it will only get worse.

The fact that you referred to her as "psychotic bitch" makes me question if she's really crazy or you're just an ass BUT assuming you are telling the truth and she is abusive towards you I understand why you would feel awful about leaving the kid after you got close enough that he considers you his father but at the same time you will do longer lasting damage if you stay and have to leave later when he is older and less capable of forgetting

There's this thing called punctuation, ever heard of it?
