He’s got someone else pregnant

So 7 months in to something I thought was really special my dp has confessed to me he slept with someone else and she’s now pregnant. I’m devastated he thinks we can fix it. My gut is saying it’s better to walk now if he can hurt me this much so early in..what’s the mn view?

Never see him again.

I sincerely hope you have been using a condom. If not, please get tested as he has not been honest with you.

TheEmmaDilemma · 07/05/2018 17:56

Walk. Actually sprint.

My exhb had a child when we met, that I accepted. What I didn't sign up for was the baby he made when he had an affair. I walked. Being a knowing step mother was one thing, having someone he cheated on me with in my life for the next 18 (rest) of my life? Just no.

I stayed when someone cheated on me after 3 months (luckily she was not pregnant) we muddled through to 7 months. I never trusted him again and I felt ashamed of myself for staying with him. In all honesty you are best leaving him now because the relationship is too badly tarnished now.

After 7 months he isn’t faithful it’s not going to get better ? I am curious how he is going to fix it

Run Lindsay, run like the wind.

lindsayville · 07/05/2018 21:11

Thanks I have ended it now thanks for the resort check ladies. He already has twins from a one night fling gone wrong and he says he has no intention of having anything to do with the baby so in itelf it shows the measure of the man he truly is.

You have done the right thing, he is clearly a shit an certainly has form with twins in the mix, better off out of this situation. He needs to have the snip!

whatwouldkeithRichardsdo2 · 07/05/2018 21:20

If you accept this then you'll accept anything. All standards and self respect gone.

He's broken this irrevocably. Save yourself.

whatwouldkeithRichardsdo2 · 07/05/2018 21:20

Sorry for the cross post. Good luck OP. Wine

didsomeonesaybunny · 07/05/2018 21:23

Sorry to hear this OP. This must have devastated you. It’s easy for us all to tell you to leave but it’s never that easy. Personally I think I’d struggle because the OW and the baby will always be a part of your partner’s life - even if that only means financially.

SemperIdem · 07/05/2018 21:27

This must be so horrible for you but fucking hell you have had a lucky escape from this bloke. Epic loser!

pinkhorse · 07/05/2018 21:37

Urghhh my ex did this. Dirty rat! Best off without these types of guys

elderflowerandrose · 07/05/2018 21:42

Run you deserve so much more

Jozxyqk · 07/05/2018 22:44

What a massive tosser. You have had a lucky escape. Flowers

vampirethriller · 08/05/2018 09:47

Happened to me. I actually put up with him having the baby at weekends. Then he got her pregnant again.
Leave.

Popchyk · 08/05/2018 10:08

Well done, OP. Him deciding to have no relationship with the child is him showing his true colours yet again.

You had no other choice, but it is still a hard thing to finish it.

hellsbellsmelons · 08/05/2018 10:10

Very glad you ended.
But the fact you even had to ask is a bit disturbing.
Why would you even consider it???

Riversleep · 08/05/2018 10:14

If he's shagging around less than 7 months into your relationship, he's not your DP. He thinks you are a casual girlfriend and can't even be bothered to protect you by using a condom. Leave them to it.

CarysMa · 08/05/2018 10:19

Twice this has happened to him then! three children and he wasn't in a relationship with either mother. He is NO LOSS.

Get turned off.

CarysMa · 08/05/2018 10:20

omg Vampirethriller Shock

SunshineandRain18 · 08/05/2018 11:23

Walk.

Baubletrouble43 · 08/05/2018 11:28

He left a one night stand with twins. She had to do a twin pregnancy birth and childrearing alone. As a mother of twins that horrifies me.That man is an almighty waste of oxygen. You are so much better off away from him.

Dancingmonkey87 · 08/05/2018 11:34

Can you left him op he needs to invest it a pack of condoms

TheMonkeyMummy · 08/05/2018 11:36

Run, run, run for the hills!

I am so sorry OP. X
