My Wife's Friend Cornered Her At Dinner To Confess His Undying Love For Her r/Relationships

[@couchpotato1185]

I found it kinda revolting that people suggested in the second story that the baby could be "a loving group project". And that they are "teenagers that can take care of the child" when one just lost a father and two probably a father figure. Having another child is more than just the physical care work. It's about being able to not only financially afford to care for another child but also emotionally. Going through loss and having a new born isn't easy peasy as those comments make it seen.

[@Madikay27]

I was also thrown off by the S2 comment talking about how they love filthy beauty. OP seemed to like it so alls we’ll that ends well, but def seemed like a weird way to comfort someone going through an actual real life messed up situation

[@tonyblake7569]

Exactly. Like they're basically suggesting parentification saying the teenagers can help raise the kid. And if she listened to them and the kids hated it then she'd probably resent them for it since in her mind they should want to so they can grow closer.

[@joycec8]

Yeah I'm not a fan of that comment since kids don't want to raise other kids.

[@faceofvision]

@@tonyblake7569 ikr, all of reddit is full of posts by people who were parentified, but here people act like it's the best thing ever??

[@CanonSkyrissian]

like yeah sure the teens can help but it's not their responsibility. it should be more like "can you keep an eye on the baby while I take a quick shower", not full-time care taking.

[@halfbearhalfneedle]

That second Story has me sobbing, the op did such a great job at conveying her feelings and the reality of life

[@HoneyBakedHamlet]

Same. As someone who's had to watch a loved one slowly pass away.. it hurts so much to know what that 'anger' at the dying person feels like. It's not really anger AT the person. It's... I can't describe it.

[@pansprayers]

@@HoneyBakedHamlet it's the feeling of loss, amplified. Loving and trusting someone who you'd trust with your life requires a lot of vulnerability. When they die, it feels like abandonment and betrayal.

I put this on to listen to while cleaning the bathroom and instead I'm full on ugly crying

[@thomasjoseph5876]

No she didn't. She is unbalanced and unhinged and should NEVER be allowed near children.

[@thomasjoseph5876]

@@HoneyBakedHamlet It's anger at not having any control over the situation and neither you nor your dying partner can do anything to change the outcome. It's just something you have to learn to accept. It's the stages of grieving that most people go thru. I am willing to bet you didn't act anything like this unhinged crazed OP in the story though. I have never seen anyone act like her. She needs professional help otherwise those kids are gonna be a mess, especially Steve's bio-daughter, Sara.

[@PinkkElephantt]

I think it's horrifyingly selfish of people to proposition married crushes - even if it is 'undying love'. What could it ever achieve besides unhappiness for everyone involved?

[@pippo17173]

[@emilybarclay8831]

Too much rom com logic in their little brains

[@thomasjoseph5876]

People feel that gotta shoot their shot but most times, they do it because they realize they are way too late to the game and expect the outcome to be the same (denied) if they had asked them years earlier when everyone was single. If by some miracle they aren't rejected but embraced, then it is a huge bonus. Basically, they thought years ago they would be rejected so if they are rejected now, they feel weirdly vindicated. I have seen where a guy I knew pulled a stunt as I described and it worked and she left her husband and kids for him but he suddenly came to the conclusion this is not what he wanted and ended up moving away across the country in the dead of the night behind her back. She was wrecked and her husband and kids wanted nothing to do with her lol. Although, if anyone pulled a stunt like this with my wife, I would knock his ass out and make it so he would never try anything like it again with anyone else.

[@ladyv5655]

Based on his wife's response, sounds like the dude has priors. Seems like his "undying love" line is just the tactic of a sleazy player.

[@burtonl7239]

A chance to bang. Why do people play the lottery when each round only makes most people poorer?

[@owl7072]

Story 2: I'm with Op on the "I'm sick of the romanticizing" thing. Everyone is like "Oh but when he's gone you'll have a part of him with you." _No._ What Op will have is grief, the responsibility of caring for a bunch of grieving kids/teenagers who just lost their father/father figure, and a newborn baby that screams and literally doesn't understand or care about anything other than "I'm hungry" and "my diaper is full" (no hate to babies but that shit's stressful even without everything else). There's _nothing_ good about this situation. "There's teenagers who can help care for the baby" There's grieving teenagers that you're trying to essentially push caring for a baby they didn't ask for onto their shoulders along with the grief they already have. It's not even Op's story I'm annoyed about. I'm annoyed on behalf of _everyone_ who essentially got talked into keeping the baby of a dead partner because then "at least you'll always have a part of them" then act surprised when they're _miserable_ and crushed with grief made worse by stress and lack of sleep.

[@kitkakitteh]

i would have been grateful to have had a piece of him. But we were married decades, and that ship had sailed. I miss him so much.

[@ebagentj]

Story two was an amazing and emotional gut punch. OP really drove home how angry and frustrated and sad and confused she was. I don't know if she put the redditors who were romanticizing her situation in their place, but she damn well tried and succeeded in reminding me that although some of these stories are likely fake, a lot of them aren't and there's real people with much more complicated emotions than fiction behind them. I really do hope she and her family are doing well now.

[@QuayHollywood]

Reading this story had me crying, laughing, mad, heartbroken and so many more emotions all at once. It was well written and even put some thoughts in to words for how I could feel. I hope her baby came with ease and a blessing, I hope all her children grow up healthy and full of love and that Steve rest happily watching over them. And I hope you have an awesome day. (Got in to my feelings but it's true)

I am shocked she hadn't had birth control for 5+ years and didn't know she was pregnant until she was 15 weeks along.

[@Cynararose]

@@Lady.B0420 why is that shocking. At the time they took it out she was going something very emotional and stressful, and had no thought of ever being with a man again. Her child had a tumor and looked like she had a very messy divorce as well. The pregnancy she didn’t see because she was going through once again a very emotional and stressful time. Some people when they are going through something so stressful they lose there period or she completely lost track of her period, or even she may have something like pcos and her periods are irregular.

Holy fuck I relate to the “sick of being called strong when I’m barely holding on” thing. I live with chronic pain. Both mum and I are disabled. Mum is dealing with a whole host of severe medical issues (none that will kill her…yet, but life changing serious shit), I care for her while barely surviving myself. I’m sore, tired, utterly exhausted with nothing left in the tank, and so damn sore. The house has gone to shit. My social life and mental health have gone to shit. We’re both lashing out at each other every day due to the frustration of our situation and knowing we’re both barely coping. Which is heartbreaking because I love her more than anything and I hate seeing her like that. My friends check in and ask how I’m coping and how mum is and I lie through my teeth and I get the reassuring loving messages that I can do this and I’m so strong and all that bullshit. I know that’s what you’re meant to say. I know they’re being caring but I wanna scream most of the time and this story, although wildly different from my own set of circumstances, resonates so deep within me. Apparently I also word vomit 😅 guess I had all that built up and this was a good outlet. This’ll more than likely get lost in a sea of comments but sorry to anyone who read this 😅

First story commenters, "I don't know how people allow weirdos in their lives" "Some people live for the drama" "Definitely tell his wife" Honestly, doing the right thing is just as likely to bring drama as keeping secrets. Some people, especially attractive people, through no fault of their own, are drama magnets. Unless everyone is actively witnessing and enabling a weird actions, please don't blame their friends for not being detectives and hanging out with them. A lot of weirdos are smart enough to hide behind good people so that others will look over their smaller mistakes and it won't be until they make a big mistake that the collective realizes the signs were always there. That's why hindsight is 20/20, especially without the fog and rose colored glasses.

In my social circles we refer to people like #1 as "missing stairs" since older group members know to avoid the danger but new people fall into the gap and get hurt.

It allows the creepy person to easily prey on any new social members since they have no idea what's going on even though most elder members are aware of the creeper's history.

[@hakudoushinumbernine]

I love how op is angry saying shes tired of people saying shes strong when shes barely keeping her head above water... The thing is, that statement is ironic. Shes doing exactly what people in desperate and hopeless situations do when the need to survive... keep their head above water. It takes a strong person to do that in that kind of situation. Especially with three kids and one on the way. Shes stronger than she realizes. We all are. Shame it takes situations like this to figure that out... I think thats the real reason i listen to these stories. Its not just because i like watching drama unfold in OTHER PEOPLE'S lives but because its cathartic seeing people live through situations they didn't think they could live through. Freeing themselves from abuse and finding safety, fathers becoming parents because of unforseen circumstances, and stepping up to the plate when the mother bows out. People surviving people with undiagnosed disorders and such. Making the hard but right choice. That story about the dad with the wife and two kids, the one being autistic nonverbal pushing the sister down the steps and the mom not doing anything about it and telling the father that he shouldn't either. That is a hard decision to leave one child because of their untreated condition to protect the other without the condition. How does ANY loving parent make that decision? And he had to make it because the alternative was potentially worse off. Are these ideal situations? No, of course not, and the stories dont always have happy or satisfying endings. But This is a constant reminder that life is happening, and people are living it the best they know how. And its also a sober reminder that you can do everything right and things can still go wrong and for someone with anxiety (at least for me) that is strangely motivating. Everyone is strong, it just takes different forms.

Last Story: OP’s life sounds all filled up. OP’s perspective is unique among mere mortals. She may have her own gravitational pull; so much power, the excess has to go somewhere :). Her life is an adventure, an odyssey even, filled with emotional and intellectual extremes. Her child: In the calculated world of logic, an abortion would’ve been the ‘expedient’ and necessary solution for most humans.. But in the Steve & OP story, the child is necessary. This brand new on planet earth little girl-person will continue the ‘story of Steve’ (and OP)… Just, wow! Life is gonna suck… And it’s going to be amazing and wonderful and filled with purpose for OP and the human lives in her immediate orbit, i.e. her family…

[@catherinecox573]

I was very strong and didn't cry during story 2... Until Steve said "She'll have a sister", what the ffffffffff 😭 Too damn sad.

Isn't there an update on the 1st story? The creep was creeping on other women in the group, and hell was rained down on him in the end.
