Assuming that you thought it through and decided that you wouldn't mind marrying her in the first place?


If you didn't see yourself wanting to marry her, would you do it anyways or is that like shooting yourself in the foot twice?

Unless you want to raise a bastard, yes.

Why would you date someone a year you wouldn’t want to eventually marry?

ETA: I don’t understand dating just to date. Date because you like the long term future, or move on. With tinder and social media there’s never been a time easier to meet and frick the opposite sex. If you aren’t with someone you enjoy why wouldn’t you move on?

I did the military cliche of getting married too young and knocking her up

It gave me two wonderful sons but one HORRIBLE marriage. We stuck it out until age 30 then divorced.

The military indirectly incentivizes you to get married. More pay, better housing, and healthcare for spouses. Knock a girl up and it's easy to see marriage as a solution

OP's pullout game is weak. But seriously, there's not enough information to make a decision. Less than a year, maybe yes, maybe no, it depends on the girl.

Absolutely not. Everyone knows you can only marry someone if you have been dating for at least 12 months!

What kind of dumb question is this?

Regardless of the reason, if you marry someone you've known less than a year then you're marrying someone you don't really know, and that is a bad idea.

People who say no in this situation are the reason the US is crippled by baby mamas on welfare and kids growing up without dads. Actions have consequences.

I would have coated up and avoided that, but here we are. I guess most people just don't use condoms anymore. You hear about this all the time these days.

If I thought it was heading that way anyway, yes. Still a risk 1 year in but it's your fault and making a nice girl into a single mom has the potential to impact her future prospects more than yours.

I'm sure most of us know decently educated single moms from decent families who aren't struggling financially, but who end up in a cycle of woe-is-me attention whoring and desperation, which is almost impossible to pull out of and find a decent husband and start a normal family. Watching it develop on social media in real time is pretty depressing.

Maybe eventually but not just because she got pregnant. This isn't the 1950's anymore.

If you've been dating that long, you know she's marriage material. Suck it up and do the right thing.

Offer to pay for the abortion. If I'm dating someone for any length of time, we'd likely be in agreement that we never want to have kids.

Absolutely fricking not.

Co-parenting is easy. I do it now.

I know what it’s like to have a woman say she is done and just not want to be married anymore.

Guess why? I lost half my shite and laid out way more than that in the end.

So shite no. I would have much rather had to do the court thing to make sure i got my 50/50 custody long before i ever gave a woman shite she didn’t deserve just cause she continued breathing
