Girlfriend and my baggage ...

My girlfriend and I have been dating for a little over a year now, and we currently live together. We both love each other very much, but had a frank discussion last night with her basically saying maybe it isnt meant to be, no matter how much we love each other, maybe we cant make it work. Why? Let me explain briefly ...

 

I have a 4 year old and am about to start my divorce proceedings. We have been separated for over a year now. She is a very nasty individual, and constantly meddles in our lives. My son is growing into someone I hardly know, he has very little respect for me, and is very aggressive. I have contact with him 2 nights per week.

 

Now, my difficulties lie with my girlfriend, in the fact that my son is a constant reminder of my past. He is also very difficult to deal with on occasions. Basically my GF has said she isnt all that interested in him, hence why she has also said she has been naive and maybe we cant make it work, given all my excess baggage.

 

What do I do? I desperately love my GF, but I also have an obligation to my son. I know that stopping contact with my son because of my GF isnt on, even though when my son isnt around, things are perfect with us. Then when he is, she becomes distant, and that is when we have problems and arguments.

 

Any suggestions ... anyone ...

 

Thankyou.
