@jenmart554,
You need to go slowly with the thought of sharing a home with this man at this time. He is newly sober and for the first year in particular, the chance of relapse is great.
Additionally, try to understand how your family feels. While trying to help this man, he insulted them and you. They do not want to see you get hurt again.
Take small gentle steps, go places with the guy, spend time with him and if all is going well then maybe your family will be more open to the idea of you moving in with him. They need to see that he has truly changed.
Through all of this, think about the child. Do you want to get together with the man, live with him and then have him relapse again, subjecting your child to the horrors? Keep in mind, if he relapses again and the child is there and your gentleman passes out, your child could end up in danger by sampling whatever the dad is using (drugs or alcohol).
If it's love you have for each other, it can wait a few months before moving in together.
Stumble It!
