Today, I found out that I wasn't going to be a father. My best friend is going to be the father to my girlfriend's child, though. FML

zefronke8 tells us more.

Okay guys, here's the story: my girlfriend and I were together for nearly two years, and one day she told me she was pregnant. I didn't know how to react at first, but I eventually came to terms with it and became excited for my son. Fast forward three months: my girlfriend is obviously pregnant now, and I was out drinking with my best friend. We took a great picture together in the bar to celebrate this great moment in my life, and then I asked him to send it me. That's when I saw the pictures of my girlfriend in a recent conversation. I confronted her, and found out that she had been sleeping with him, took the test, and it's his. I broke up with her and stopped talking to my ex friend.

You wouldn't want to father a child with that woman anyway OP

If you take financial responsibility of a child from birth then you are pretty much responsible for life even if it's proven the baby isn't yours. At least in Louisiana anyway. It's the reason why if there's a question of paternity you shouldn't ever pay for anything until everything gets settled. Also, if you find out that you have a kid 15 years down the road you can (and probably will!) be sued for unpaid child support. Even though the mother swore up and down it wasn't yours. (I swear all of this info comes from my dad and half-sister)

Ex girlfriend I hope is what you meant. You do not owe her anything. Find someone faithful.

Thanks for the clarity here and good for you for taking action.

OP just be sure to watch out. She clearly isn't above cheating so who knows she may try to put you down as the father.

Damn that's way more than a .50 cal you dodged OP. FYL but now you can move on to somebody that won't cheat.

#98, can always get a paternity test. If it is his then bad luck for him I guess.. but he does get a son. If it's the ex best friends then he doesn't have to deal with either of them again :)

@105; did you even read the follow up?

@109, the follow-up you replied to, which said she "took the test" and "it's his" (the former friend).

*Former best friend. *Ex-girlfriend Take out the trash, dude. I'm so sorry you got a double-whammy heartbreak.

What's the point of correcting him when he already said so in his comment?

How did OP find out and why so late ?

Seems to me you got lucky. Better to find out now than when its too late.

Well you are down a woman and best friend but hey no child support XD

sorry op, at least you dodged two bullets. go find real friends.
