My friend doesn't know how to tell her husband the baby isn't his: Advice?

Unfortunately there’s no easy way to tell him in my opinion just tell him she made her bed now she has to sleep in it​:woman_shrugging::woman_shrugging:

Seriously? Tell her to grow a pair and let her husband know there needs to be a DNA test. This is just wrong to do to someone. She needs to hurry up and do the right thing.

Why do females lie about this shit, out here making us ALL look bad. Absolutely disgusting. JUST TELL HIM BECAUSE THERE ISN’T AN EASY WAY. And he better find out now not no damn 18 years down the road. And why you in here instead of telling her to TELL HIM!!!

The right answer would have been to tell him immediately upon getting back together, not waiting 9 months and lying to the guy. Then to try and claim he’s not providing proper support due to working!?

She’s a hot mess and seriously needs to get her shyte together.

She either wants the true father in the picture for the kid and man’s sake or she doesn’t. She can’t have it all ways.

The child also deserves to know who the true father is because what if the man has issues medically himself or family?

If she wants advice she needs to stop the lies once and for all.

She needs to tell him. As a child that grew up thinking one person was their father, then to find out he wasn’t, this is a huge deal. They will feel their whole life was a lie and wonder if anyone ever bothered to tell the truth about anything for a very long time, trust issues for sure. Not only that, you can’t lie to a man and make him care for something that isn’t his. Give him the choice to choose. This lie is bigger the just the 3 adults… what about his parents that think they have a grandchild, aunts and uncles… completely not fair.

He cant supply the support she needs because of hus work hours…so now she wants the other dude to be involved? Did I read that right? So other dude doesn’t have a job and can sit and pet her all day. Someone needs to tell that poor man…he working his azz off for THAT!!! someone needs to save him…be a real friend and tell him so he can get away from her and the child won’t have to live with that lie. :woman_facepalming::woman_facepalming:

Sorry but it sounds to me like money’s tight and now she wants that freaking child support cash and that’s the only reason she’s struggling. Screw her. I’m not usually that heartless but she thought she could get away without suffering the consequences of her behavior. I’ve screwed up in my own past and I’m not judging what she did to get pregnant. It’s the fact that she thought she could keep both men in limbo like that and try to manipulate things for her own best interest that irks me. Eff that nonsense!

I’d just be like hey I’m wondering if the baby might not be yours bc of how it is looking. Show concern about it bc you know it’s going to hurt him but if you show that it is upsetting you then it can help soften the blow for him. I’m sure he understands that there’s a possibility due to the close proximity of the ending of that relationship and the reconciliation of yours.

If she is 100% positive that this baby is another man’s, she should have said something a long time ago.

The only thing she can do now is to be completely honest.

It’s her bed she has made, she needs to be responsible, for the sake of the child if anything.

She went and fucked up lol she should have told her husband as soon as they got back together. If they were truly seperated at the time then she didn’t really cheat on him so the husband probably would have understood, but since she waited and hasn’t told him I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets angry and to be honest I wouldn’t blame him. She messed this up she should have been honest when they first got back together.

So basically she wanted her cake and eat it too. Until she realized HER husband hours doesn’t allow him to be home and help with the child. She should have told him from the beginning. What a selfish thing to do!! She is horrible on so many levels for hiding this. She wanted the picture perfect life and it’s not working so NOW she wants to come clean. That’s disgusting

It sounds like if the husband could provide better financially, then there would be no question about it. She only wants to involve the other person because she wants his money and cannot justify taking his money without telling her husband the baby is his. She has dug herself a pretty deep hole by keeping it a secret this long, that baby deserves to know who her biological father is and that other man deserves to have a chance to raise his biological daughter. She needs to come clean to her husband and let him decide if he still wants to be in her life. She’s putting all three of them at a disadvantage by being selfish.

She should have owned up. Their relationship is based on a lie. She needs to tell him. The husband may still want to raise baby regardless. Maybe not
But their relationship is based on a lie and it will come out eventually.

She should have told him before he ever took her back, since he definitely may not have, had he known she was already pregnant with another man’s child (regardless of her lame excuse about not wanting to share the news until she passed the first trimester, that was 100% necessary “news” to share with her husband that was taking her back, meanwhile she sure told the other guy, and devised a plan to keep her husband from finding out - so twisted). She’s selfish af and she needs to just bite the bullet and take the consequences, which are that he likely will leave her and be absolutely heartbroken and she will be left without any help because this dude was so quick to give up his rights to another dude, that he’s not going to step up like she thinks he will, and her husband will be gone, too (as will the money he’s working so hard to provide for her and her baby he is supporting, while she complains it isn’t enough, and after just THREE months she can’t handle ONE baby, while her husband works and pays for a kid that he doesn’t even know isn’t his?) and she deserves all of it at this point, imo.

Get a dna test,
How do you know he is the father

come clean now and start living an honest life.

Someone better tell him. And someone better vouch for him in a child support case depending on what state he’s in because if he chooses to separate from her he could end up paying for a kid that isn’t even his. Someone needs to tell him. He should have known from the beginning and it seems like that marriage was doomed to begin with. The longer you wait the bigger the wound. Building more memories on top of a lie is very harmful.

One she didn’t tell him on purpose and had sex with her husband for the purpose of him thinking the baby was his. Now shes not getting the attention she wants and wants to literally blow-up this man’s entire world so she can run into the other dudes arms which is shitty in my book and her husband deserves better. She cheated on him and lied to him idc if they weren’t together physically. She did this to herself and I wouldn’t ask for her. She’s a grown adult playing with someone’s feelings and more than one someone. Her husband, this baby and the baby’s dad. She was woman enough to sleep around she should admit it now before her husband gets attached to this baby and she’ll need a DNA test because I’m sure hubby is on the birth certificate so legally he’s dad unless proven other wise.

She needs to come clean her hubby may not leave her he will be so hurt but he can still love baby as his own …

Sounds like she wants two baby daddies

She should of told him when she found out she was pregnant. My friend went through the same thing, but she told her husband as soon as she found out. He was mad but 3 hours later he called her and said I don’t care who’s baby it is, it’s my baby now, and they have lived in harmony ever since. She maybe surprised at his reaction. Or it could end her marriage, either way, she needs to be honest. It’s not fair to the husband or the baby, let the husband decide if he wants to be daddy or not, he may surprise her.

She needs to just come out and tell him. Point blank, explain how the baby was conceived and all that.

Better to find out now then to feel completely betrayed 20 years from now. Not to mention, it may be less dysfunctional for the child to be raised knowing something a person might want to know. If she’s getting this guilty now, it’s not going to go away. :frowning: Also, medically, there may be good reason to at least know some family history. Tell him that you may have reason to believe that this child may not be his and hopefully you’re saying enough to work through it. I feel like the truth always comes out.

your friend sounds INCREDIBLY selfish . she honestly needs therapy at this point .

She should’ve told him immediately but since she didn’t the sooner the better. I would bring up the split and say she slept with someone else and wants to do a dna test

Does no one have access to condoms?

How do you have sex unprotected with a guy you met during your marriage break? I get freedom, but you just let anyone cum inside you….

If the husband did it, he’d be a piece of shit. What if said dude gave her an STD, she then brought it home to husband?

This is crazy business to me.

Should tell the husband and then get a DNA test, this baby deserves to know who it’s father is. You start out with one lie and end up having to tell another hundred just to keep the first one safe. Every child needs to know who both their biological parents are no matter what.

Literally gonna let a man play Daddy to a kid that isn’t his and then devastate him with that information because he’s working too much?! :person_facepalming:

Your friend is an asshole for not saying anything.
Some may disagree but sleeping with anyone while on a “break” is messed up as it is. (not that I agree that breaks are even appropriate, there’s not really anything that you can work on outside of the marriage that you can’t while in it.) This is the sort of thing that drives some men to suicide.
She’s evil for even considering not telling him imho.

Well by law if married baby is automatically put as his til a paternity test shows otherwise. However she needs to come clean. He is taking care of a kid that isn’t his. She needs to let him know if he wants to be with her he must accept that she has a child that isn’t his and care for baby as his own. If he chooses not to (understandable) then she needs to divorce him and go on her way with her child.

The time to tell him is way past. Had she been honest with him he may not have wanted to rekindle the relationship. She needs to come clean immediately and let the chips fall where they may. She created this mess, now she needs to fess up. Unless they were divorced she shouldn’t have been sleeping with anyone - then it would be a non issue. I hope for everyone’s sake that she tells the truth and everyone can make decisions based on that rather than lies. I know it’ll be hard for her, but it will only get harder. What happens if the kid has a medical issue and it’s found out by accident… That would be even more horrible for everyone.

So I witnessed the aftermath of this same situation first hand at my old job. The only difference is that the wife waited 26 YEARS to tell her husband. The daughter already had 3 kids when baby daddy decided to come back around and all he££ broke loose! The husband was left devastated and the wife left with the baby daddy. Daughter took the grandkids from the man who raised her and speaks of him like sh!t even though her donor never did a d@mn thing for her. It was AWFUL and I felt so bad for the husband.
She needs to tell him like yesterday and she’s a sorry a$$ for not taking responsibility for her actions and being a grown up smh.

 I knew someone in a similar situation and she waited until her daughter was 14 years old and her bio dad was on his deathbed and that’s why they told her… blew up her whole world! Messed with that poor child’s head. And the guy who raised her was devastated! I have to say in regards to who she considered to be her dad, that didn’t change and she was so mad it ruined her relationship with her mother and she never got to know her bio dad. Or any of her siblings from his side. In my opinion, just rip the bandaid off. The longer you wait the worse it’s going to be.
