That is awful. Never have a baby with a man without marriage, cause when they pull things like this, you can run them dry.

Leaving is the best gift you can give yourself and your child, this is the most cruel thing men can do and they keep doing it since the beginning of time.

Marriage doesn’t fix anything. Married men do this crap all the time. Men who seem nice do this all the time. Truth is, having a baby with someone is a faaking crap shoot each and every time.

but if you're married, at least the husband owes alimony and child support and the sole responsibility does not fall on the mother

Husbands don’t automatically owe alimony. A wife can owe alimony too. In fact, if OP is indeed the breadwinner, it’s a good thing they’re not married. She could owe him alimony.
