so, i have a co-worker who is preggers with a married man's baby. she told me this in confidence because i had a thing with a married man last year (i didnt know he was married fwiw) and she figured i would sympathize (i don't).

so, he is telling her that he will hire a divorce attorney and leave his wife in may (he is an accountant and doesnt want to find a place to live during the busiest time of the year). i think hes stalling and never going to leave the wife. on the off chance he isnt bluffing, why would she trust him enough to be with a man like that...

is there anything i can say to knock some sense in her?

If he's telling her that, it may be true. Look at the flip side. If he wanted her to have an abortion, he dang sure wouldn't say that.

oh, and you and the married guy?

High chance that is a lie.

Not a damn thing. She has already shown that she will fall for his bullshite and he knows this isn't going to change. She should chalk it up to a lesson learned and walk away.

This. He isn't going to leave his wife.

Sounds like he's waiting it out to see if she miscarries.

This sounds like the plot of a Lifetime movie where your friend ends up murdered.

not if she is really taken with him. she'll likely be pissed at you for saying something negative. I'd sit back, be silent, and watch the train wreck happen.




BTW, you're not still into married men are you?
