I have txts dating back a year most of them ignored by my son's dad.
I'm done asking, I've just sent a txt saying let me know when you're free to see your son.
I don't have to keep asking do I? I ask every week, sick of it.

Stop asking. He has made it clear that he isn’t interested.
No, stop asking now. You’ve tried and done more than most people would have. You have got evidence that you’ve tried.
He’s not interested. If he becomes interested he will let you know.
You’ve got better things to do with your time and emotional energy.
Save all your messages for when your son is older if his Dad tries to say you made it difficult. Then stop messaging him, sad that his son is not a priority.
Why are you asking every week! Cut him off block his number. He doesn’t deserve a spot in his life and move on. Find your little
Boy, find a father figure he can look up to ( relative or friends ) who will do more than this jerk. Stop wasting your time and emotions msging him. It sux his dad is like this but he’s not going to answer and you aren’t able to move on and be free of him and the emotions that go with it. Hurt anger it’s not worth it. Make memories with your little boy and forget the dead beat dad.
Years ago after my ex fought tooth and nail in court to see the kids - he just stopped seeing them.
The solicitor advised writing registered mail with hand to hand delivery (as in he, himself had to sign and collect it).
Said do it every month for 3 months.
Then twice again for 6mths (so 3mths between monthly and again 3 months later).
After that wait, another 3 months - make it clear in this letter you won’t reach out again and never do it after that if I hadn’t heard from him. In total that’s 6 letters.
He said that if my ex then ever took it back to court for contact, they’d see it was never though my own lack of trying.
I kept photocopies of each letter and any letter that was returned, because he never collected it was sent back to me and I’ve kept (unopened) with the accompanying photocopy in a folder.
It’s been 15 years. He’s never seen the kids since (both adults now at 21 and 18) and not once reached out in any capacity to contact the kids. I’ve kept the same mobile and PO Box. This year, I’ll close the PO Box but my number will remain the same.
This is not your responsibility, stop messaging, if he wants contact he will, but stop the heartache and emotion for yourself and move on.
