Seriously, it's like every other post. I kinda want to write a stock response saying “go read all the other questions about huge age gap relationships and take that advice, you are not special.”
That might be a little mean, but they really do start to run together after a while.
Your husband sounds like an asshole, not gonna lie. Cuddling is not childish (what the actual fuck?). I’d argue it’s crucial to a healthy relationship. You produce oxytocin when cuddling with someone you love, and it promotes bonding and a sense of closeness. I make a point of cuddling with my husband for at least 15 minutes a day, and we have been together for ten years. Honestly, I think how “lovey dovey” we are is the main reason our relationship has lasted. We never really left the “honeymoon” phase.
His comments about your body are a massive red flag. Does he insult you like this regularly? Does he negatively affect your self-confidence? Your partner should do nothing but build you up. He’s clearly not doing that. He’s making you feel bad about yourself and your relationship. Time to express how this makes you feel, and if he doesn’t get the message it’s therapy time—or divorce. Honestly, I wouldn’t want to be with someone who wasn’t all over me, anyway. But that’s me.
I was also 24, I think. I only learned I was pregnant after the fact. Went to the doctor with excessive bleeding and he told me what was up. We did not want a pregnancy and were in no way ready to be parents, so you would think I wouldn't be emotional at all. But boy, did I go crazy.
Your body was making all these hormones for the foetus, and suddenly they have no place to go. It takes time for it to break it all down and get back no normal again. No shame in that! Don't fight it, it'll make it worse. Just ride the waves and thing will get better again, you'll see
Alright
I wouldn't be friends with anyone like him to be fair. He has absolutely no right to beg you to be his friend.

I asked her to end our relationship, because it made it harder for me to leave and because we don’t have any future!
Then you need to man up, and break it off, don't ask her to do it. Be verbal about it being over.
Option #3 sounds best. Focus on what’s best for your kid.

One of those 'mean spurts' is going to end with you or your daughter in the hospital. You guys are not exempt from his rage.
You're both lying to each other so are you going to be the person who owns up first?
This is bizarre, even more so considering the ages
Depending on his finances…..
This is the exact reason why.
OP isn’t interested in seeing her BF, unless he pays to see her.
OP is perfectly able to do what she wants, and she should see her friend.
But her BF is also perfectly able to realise that he is putting more into the relationship than OP is, and end it.
Dude get over yourself!!!
The rest of the relationship is, aside from his insecurities with other men.
