If I had an uncontrollable urge to chew on bits of metal I would simply carry a bit of metal on my person for when the urgin kicks in. Perhaps I could even have it attached to my person as a decorative item for when I’m not chewing. Decorative bits of body metal, I’m sure there’s a business there.

He clearly wants kids and was lying to her about it. He was also raw-dogging his ex. Aside from reporting back after the scan appointment or being a loving mind reader, not sure what he could have done better. I'm not convinced he wanted kids, but being faced with that kind of radical situation might push someone to acknowledge the responsibility. I mean, birth control fails.

FilthyImp posted:I mean, it sounds more like dude's pretty caring and above the board about everything. He's trying to be supportive of the Ex and the situation he's in, while also checking in with the then-current partner to make sure they were doing OK. The fact that the ex discovered she was pregnant while OP was dating her bf is a little weird to me. Generally people find out they're pregnant within a month or two, so OP's bf was sleeping with his ex as recently as eight weeks ago. That's...a pretty short timeline for a serious relationship to begin with someone else. It's unclear if the boyfriend was cheating on her with his ex and got the ex pregnant or if their relationship started after he stopped seeing the ex. Either way, the timing is messy. I would be pretty upset if the guy I just started dating was like "ope my ex just found out she's pregnant, gotta go be a dad". Although, if you just started seeing a guy and he announced that, that's a bullet dodged. Just break up, he's got other things to worry about right now, and your relationship isn't far enough along to commit to co-parenting.

That's...a pretty short timeline for a serious relationship to begin with someone else. Post says the ex says she was still having her period (not actually, but if someone already had light periods, spotting during early pregnancy can seem like their period), and wasn't showing yet. Some people don't discover they're pregnant until they're a couple months along because of irregular periods (I was almost three months along before I realized I was pregnant with my son because of this), spotting throughout, lack of overt showing (common when they're already overweight), etc. Very rarely it can just go unnoticed until real close to birth, because of a combination of factors.

Though I do agree that going from girlfriend to co-parent is a crazy thing to expect with such a brief relationship. Also a lot of red flags with her: " I was annoyed as I had planned to ask him to go shopping with me but when I told him this he said we could go a different day because he didn’t want to miss this. Like I said he has been great and has constantly been checking on me and asking if I’m okay but I keep telling him I’m fine because I don’t want him knowing how angry I am he’s putting his ex first."

FilthyImp posted:OP said they started dating 3 months ago, and the ex breakup happened April-ish. I'd say the first Trimester finding out you're pregnant if you're not trying isn't crazy. Yeah, that's fair. I must've missed the details about the pregnancy timing. Still, a three-month relationship is not that big of a thing to lose when the circumstances change so drastically. It's super annoying and immature to do the whole "I'm not mad" pouting thing in any relationship. It seems like her ideal resolution to this situation is for her bf to just be a total deadbeat dad and act like nothing is happening, which is also extremely childish. Lots of red flags there.

That's...a pretty short timeline for a serious relationship to begin with someone else. Yeah that's what got me...regardless of how "caring" he is, he flipped on a dime for his ex & decided to keep a kid when he supposedly didn't want any. That's a BIG decision & OP probably thought he'd either give up his rights or suggest terminating/aborting. When that didn't happen, she was understandably upset at him choosing his ex & future child (again, that he claimed to never want from the start) over her & their life. He was more excited about the prospect of having a kid with his ex than he was about how his current partner felt, that's pretty hosed up if you ask me. Even funnier that he's trying to throw the whole "I checked on you & you weren't honest" line out there, considering he wasn't honest with her about kids from the start. He obviously was on the fence & rather than admit that, he threw it all on her for not being supportive of his complete 180. Betting he wasn't over the ex at all if he's willing to drop his new girl over his own mistake & then try to act like she was the bigger problem.

I knew someone who's friend didn't know they were pregnant until they gave birth, had a period the whole time, had an ultrasound because they were putting on weight that didn't spot the baby, and they are a midwife as well. They've got two uteruses because nature decided they needed spare parts in there. But massively professionally embarassing. It happens. But good for this guy for ditching the childfree psycho.

I know it's the r/relationship, but I don't think the proper response to seeing a guy who's not a deadbeat piece of poo poo is to assume he was obviously lying about not wanting kids.Dazerbeams posted:That's wild but uh, how does an ultrasound miss a whole baby when your stomach is sticking out past your tits? Ultrasounds are highly targeted; you're not just shooting a beam through a person that pings back anything that resembles a fetus. If you're not looking for the fabled double ute, you scan until you find the uterus, and if you found the empty one, you're just gonna get back a "nothing in here" signal. Plus, assuming the twins math works in reverse, two uteri and one baby means she'd only have been pregnant for 4.5 months which is short enough to skip some flags.

lol at people thinking you have to be honor-bound to a childfree existence if you've stated that you're childfree. The prospect of fatherhood burst into his life, he thought about it and discovered he liked it. He can change his mind on things like that without anyone's permission or without it being some thing he willfully hid.

Dik Hz posted:Who knows, because the story's 4th hand at this point. But men who don't want children are usually quite insistent on establishing paternity before assuming responsibility, especially if they're using birth control. He agreed to attend the ultrasound, as they were getting the DNA test, for support and not to be a douchebag? Then he gets the results and it's basically 'welp, guess I hosed up child shouldn't pay for it'. I understand he could have been 100% hands off until the results came back, but I don't think you can fault someone for agreeing to accompany someone to the doctor. Unless you're the OP I mean.

The pregnancy situation looks ESH to me. OP doesn't come off well, but it's a lovely position for her to be in. Two people who don't want kids are starting a serious relationship, he finds out he got his ex pregnant and wants to be a father. So they broke up, the end. At the end there were hurt feelings and some petty sniping, but so what? It could have gone on a lot longer with a lot more unnecessary drama.Batterypowered7 posted:Reminds me of the one where the OP is of Romani descent and the DM decides he's gonna run a Ravenloft game (maybe it was a module) where the main antagonist (maybe it was everyone) is super racist toward the obvious Roma standins of the setting. Cowslips Warren posted:And the other I think I have mentioned, who played EVERY CHAR other than my single one, refused to let me play anyone else, and got mad if I went 'off script.' As in she had already written up everything that she wanted to have happen, and if my char didn't follow, she would force the play to that point until my char eventually followed. My char wants to go to a bar? No, she doesn't feel like that, she wants my char to go on a quest, so she'd say the bar was closed, everything was closed, char HAD to go on this quest.)

Like ten years ago, I remember there was a show called "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" and the common theme among the ladies (Other than not knowing they were pregnant) was that they were fat. Also every story was basically "I had gas so horrible I knew I shouldn't trust the fart so I went to the bathroom and when I stood up, there was a BABY!"

Is there a shorter name for letting your fetishes turn you into a complete shithead? It seems to happen pretty often. There was an old Savage Love where the husband had a kink for being a hidden voyeur. So after the wife indulged him once he started creeping around the house and jerking off constantly. He even came home on his lunchbreak without telling her iirc.

Halloween Jack posted:Ravenloft was a module so popular that they expanded it into a whole setting. And yeah, there's a not-Roma ethnic group called the Vistani. Vistani were so different that you couldn't play one, you could only play a half-Vistani. They equated Roma with orcs. I have met a lot of people who literally didnt know the Roma are not a fantasy Disney cartoon creation and that g*psy is a racial slur. It's uh. Pretty odd. Some of them got real weird about it when I pointed it out too like "everyone knows they're a fantasy staple! How could you say I'm being racist?"

A lot of North Americans don't even know that the Roma ethnicity is a thing so its understandable, but ignorant. The flipside of that is that racism against Roma is really widespread in Europe, probably moreso even than anti-muslim sentiment. The irony is that Europeans are pretty bad at identifying Roma and tend to confuse random unlucky homeless people with them. They've been making this mistake for centuries. If you read about a "gypsy encampment" in a history book, there's a good chance it was just where the city's poorest lived.
