I'm the original poster of this thread. I'm not the user "Lookforward" that you have quoted. It wasn't me who said that.
I do believe that the father has every right to be just as involved with the children as I do, and that goes for whether the father is my husband or the the other man...
My husband and I don't have any existing children.
I'm pregnant with twins.
The father is almost certainly the man I've been having an affair with, NOT my husband. There is a very very small chance that it could be my husband.
The man I had the affair with is married. He and his wife have a 3...
Of course. He has already put in the papers that he sent me re: selling house and splitting the profit. I am not responding in writing until I've met with the lawyer this week to go over everything, but I intend to put that in my written response.
A nanny is a good idea, even if just as my...
Yes, it was out of guilt. I wasn't thinking when I told him he could just keep the house and do whatever he wanted with it. I wasn't thinking about keeping any money for my children - I just felt like I didn't deserve to keep any of it.
We have talked and we're going to sell the house and split...
I know that there's no guarantee that my children will have 2 loving, involved parents. That is just what I hope happens for them, not for my sake but for their sake.
Would I be lying if I said that I'm sad to be going through pregnancy alone and that I'll most likely be a single mother? Yes...
I am very much concerned about my children and their current/future wellbeing. I'm already making plans for them, working on financial budgets to prepare for caring for them.
I'm not currently seeing the other man I was in a relationship with. He wants to see me and I've put the brakes on it...
What if we both wish/agree to just keep the credit cards that are in our own names and agree to continue paying on our own credit cards? Can splitting the total overall balance still be enforced? Can the court enforce anything on us if we both come to agreement on how we'd like to split things...
I'm currently on health insurance through my husband and his employer.
I have a full time job. My husband and I intentionally waited to have children so we could focus on our careers, so I am doing ok in that department. I earn a good salary, but my husband makes significantly more than I do...
Not being snarky here, honest question....
Can adultery really legally be grounds to base a custody order on, if the person is otherwise an upstanding, productive member of society with nothing negative in their background or record? Specifically if custody is being deteremined as part of a...
Thank you.
I have also recently started seeing a therapist.
I don't intend to ask for full custody because neither of the men have given me any reason to. I don't necessarily think that join custodyand splitting time is going to always be pleasant or easy. It's definitely not how I imagined...
I don't have a history of doing things like this and I'm doing my best to make better decisions moving forward. I'm educated, have a full time job with a good salary (granted, my finances will take a major hit with the divorce). I have no criminal history, no drug use, no history of abuse, etc...
I know that this does actually happen, but it's so rare. I'm not even considering this as a realistic possibility right now. It would just be too crazy.
Immature and selfish? Having a relationship with a married man was selfish and wrong. But I think my husband and I are both handling things moving forward as best we can. I want talk to him about how he envisions the future should he be the babies' father. In no way do I plan to try to keep him...
Since my husband is most likely not the father, it probably won't happen anyway. But I do plan to discuss with him what he would like to happen should this end up being the case.
Yes, we were living together at the time of conception. We aren't living together currently and there are no plans to be living together at the time of birth.
I've read on several sites that California will not allow us to finalize the divorce until after the babies are born, even if we've...
Honestly, I don't want to encourage or push him to do anything. I want him to make his own decisions. I really just meant to tell him that he didn't have to feel any obligation toward me and that his first obligations are to his wife and daughter, so if he felt like he should try to make his...
I know, I don't take it lightly. It makes me sad. This isn't how I pictured entering motherhood. Should I have just had an abortion? I don't know, the only thing I felt sure about the whole time is that I want these babies no matter who their father is. It's not ideal, but plenty of children...
