I’m Nick ! I live in Wisconsin and I am hoping to change from a boy to a man. I am 19 years old and for my entire life have been an entrepreneur, I recently just purchased a house to support my girlfriend and our daughter (Not Biological father) we are expecting another one in a month and I am really nervous that if I don't make change I will damage my daughter, son and make my partners life miserable. I have struggled with family relationships my entire life and I am hoping to gain from this group some perspective on how to be a more thoughtful partner and parent. I want to get these 3 things from the community: 1.  Accountability outside of the shame I feel for the things I don't know I should be doing 2.  A new perspective from people that have more experience than me 3. Changing from a boy to a man in a healthy way that makes me feel good about how far I have come in my life. Some things that my partner fell in love with me for: 1.  How patient I was with her daughter and her. 2.  That I was a good listener 3. That I was thoughtful
