Right now my rl girlfriend just lost her two year old son by her mother. Our apartment feels empty and I can't really feel the same as my girlfriend. But my problem is that I have been a male figure for him since he was one years old. Since then I felt like a father to him and I treated him like a son. I just feel like her mother took something from me and I just feel like something is missing. I dont really know what to do right now just been keeping myself busy and trying not to think about it.

why did her mother take him away? :shock:

Who knows I mean I've heard that she wasn't being a good mother and stuff like that but since he was one my girlfriend was being a really wonderful mother to him.

You know that could count as a kidnapping case or something, I guess?

Considering that it's a minor being taken away from its legal parent without a legal reason? I think.

Well they both went to court for like by what I was told partial guardianship or something I dont remember. But her mother does have a court order. But the feeling I'm getting is like someone was taken from me that I cared about even if he wasn't really my son.

I hope your girlfriend can get her child back so that ya'all can be a "family" again.

Yeah I hope so too we both are fighting our hardest to get him back so we can be a family again. I would be nice.

It's okay to be feeling the way you are feeling, he doesn't have to be your biological son for you to be feeling the need to mourn his loss. It's human nature, you love him so you just have to feel it. Burying yourself in work and keeping yourself busy is natural too, your girlfriend has probably been hit doubly hard by this, so don't forget to be there for each other too.
