I am New to SFV

My story sounds like so many others on here. I am a divorced mom of 2 kids (2 and 4) I have been seeing this man for the last seven months (a bartender- I highly advise against that) and I found out last month that I was pregnant. He really wanted me to get an abortion. It is something that I strongly do NOT believe in. He said that it would ruin his life if I had this baby. I told him that he didn�t need to do anything for it. Since it was my decision to keep it- I would deal with the consequences. I told him that if he signed away his rights that he wouldn�t have to pay any child support. He refused to do that and he said that if I was going to have the baby that he was going to be a part of its life. I agreed and told him that the decision was up to him. We broke up because we just couldn�t seem to get along. He picks fights with me every chance that he can. Lately it has been getting so bad that I am feeling verbally abused. I can�t take anymore. The only thing that I asked from him is if he wanted to be part of this that we try to be friends- I can�t take another enemy in my life (I already have my ex-husband). He doesn�t seem to be able to do that- it almost seems like he is trying to make my life a living ****. And he isn�t helping me in any way like he said that he would.
I feel like I need to get away from him. I still love him in a way (it�s not that easy to fall out of love) and he says that he is starting to hate me. I don�t need that right now- I have enough to deal with. I live in Washington and I was offered a job in Texas. I would love to run away right now and deal with this completely on my own than to have to have him around only to ignore me or say horrible things to me. He says that I am being so selfish by even thinking about this and that I was be a bad person if I took the child away from him.
But I just don�t know if this will ever get better. Does my child really need this in it�s life? Will we be able to put up with his bs all of our lives? Am I being a bad person by moving and trying to get life together for all of my children- his included?
I just want him out of my life!

he will probably keep making you miserable and never come see the baby and never help you monetarily so why should you stick around for that, if you have an opportunity to start fresh somwhere else and take care of your kids and be happy then go for it, trust me this guy doesnt sound like he will be responsible and even if he did come and see the baby he would probably treat you like shhit every time he saw you and you dont want your kids seeing that and living that negativity, so think about it good, and dont think that things will change just because he will see his son, he doesnt respect you now and he never will so think about yourself right now and the kids and do what you have to do to be happy
