Lately, my heart has been in pieces. After three years with my partner, I’ve decided to end things for my own emotional well-being. The hardest part isn’t the breakup itself—it’s worrying about my 7-year-old son. My partner isn’t his biological dad, but over the past two years, they’ve built a close bond. My son sees him as a father figure, especially since his real dad has been in and out of his life. Now, I’m terrified about how my son will handle losing someone he loves and trusts. He always asks about my partner when he’s not around, and I know this change will hit him hard. I feel lost and guilty, unsure how to help my son through this. Has anyone else been through something similar? I’d love to hear your stories or advice. Sometimes, just knowing I’m not alone helps. 💬 #ParentingStruggles #BlendedFamilies #SingleMomLife #FamilyRelationships
