I went through it at a later age and children are involved.

Be glad there aren’t children and just get your kind right to move on. Working out will help. Do things you like that maybe you had to compromise on when you were married.

Get comfortable doing things alone but not being lonely. There’s a hell of a difference. Go see a movie solo, one you want to see, get the snacks you want, he’ll go for a drink afterward.

It doesn’t matter if she lived or not, it’s over - don’t give her the control over you in the aftermath worrying about things. Make an honest assessment of who you are and make the changes you see you need to make.

My man, this is a blessing. Snap out of that shite and go live your life. Getting back in the gym will help. Hire a personal trainer for a month or so just to help you with accountability. You’ll start feeling better

I may as well prepare for it to be mine.


dont pay for shite. dont obligate yourself in any way until a paternity test comes back 100% yours. dont go to doctor visits, baby classes, none of it bro.

Given what all she and I have discussed, and the timeline, it makes sense for it to be mine. I’m not going to pretend it isn’t and be unprepared when the child comes


what you dont want is to spend 9 months gearing up for a child, reconciling with a lying cheater thats going thru hormonal changes so who really knows what shes thinking, only to be discarded after "doing the right thing". you think what youre feeling today is bad? try spending 9 months preparing yourself to be a father, finding happiness and building confidence in your ability to be a good one, maybe even preparing yourself to raise someone elses, only to have her rip that from you too.

that baby will have a story its mother could never be proud of, and brother, thats out of your hands. if the baby happens to be yours then im sure youll stand up and take care of your kid.

but she made this bed. she doesnt get to hold you hostage or guilt you for 9 months. and if at the end of it you werent there for her during pregnancy you can make it up to your kid.

And real talk, OP, you don’t want to raise a baby with someone like your ex. You may (or may not) be an immature drunk, but she sounds like she has her issues too.

Why don’t you ask her to look at her options and whether she really wants to have a baby with a dude she doesn’t want to be with.

There is literally no way this turns out good for you when that baby gets here.

All you can do is bang her friends. Then report back once she finds out.

yeah but if she has a baby that looks like him. Maybe she changes her mind and he has a shot of her loving him again

Hopefully, you have a hobby, like golf etc. My buddy had something similar happen to him. Wife left him and remarried like six months later. Ten years later and he still hasn't gotten his life together. If a woman doesn't love you, it's time to move on. I know it's hard, but nothing you do is gonna change that fact. I had another friend get a divorce and it was the best thing that ever happened to him. He is finally happy now, like he's a whole new person.

Yeah, I can't think of a worse situation to be in.



Life isn't easy. Focus on the good things and it's easier. Maybe you'll learn a lot about yourself and this could be an unbelievable chance to start over.

But doing what she did was not the way to go about fixing a marriage or bringing forth and sort of resolution

I think she resolved it by acquiring a new baby daddy

It’s not 1995. Go join a gym with classes and be social/get motivated by a class environment of fit people.

Sorry, to hear that. It will get better, day by day. Hit the gym, it is probably one of the best things you can do for your mind and body atm.
