    I agree: throw the bum out.

    You know, grown-up adult men actually care about children.

    He's a coward: he wants to leave you, doesn't know how, is fabricating a drama, and through it all isn't for a second thinking about your daughter.

    I can't promise you'll find love, but when a man who isn't married to you does this, you've been used. Don't let your daughter think this is all that will be in store for her!

    Gather your courage and face the future fearlessly. Dropping him off at the airport curb might be the "hidden opportunity," after all.
