Me and my child’s father broke up after our baby was 5 months old and we now have a three day on and off schedule. He’s 9 months now and we’re trying to have some type of relationship when his daughter is not there which is only so often. So whenever me and my son leave for my days I really feel some resentment because basically I feel like a lonely single parent just because of his daughter and she doesn’t leave till may. I know he says we can still live together but I know that will create problems and I’m just mad for him letting it get this far

You’re not wrong at all. You’re grieving the breakup, juggling mom life, and feeling like a single parent while he gets to split his world between you, your baby, and his other child. That resentment is a signal, not a red flag on you.
Living together again would be pure emotional chaos: mixed signals, fake “family” vibes, then more heartbreak when reality hits. He let things drift instead of defining the relationship and protecting your feelings, so your anger is valid.
Best move: emotionally detach, treat him strictly as a co-parent, lower expectations, and build your own support system. The less you expect from him romantically, the less those 3 days apart will feel like abandonment and more like time to recharge and focus on you and your baby.
