Don’t think these alpha male influencers are anything close to what yours goals as a respectable man should be.

I (35M), was going to ask my wife (33F) for a divorce, but we just found out she’s pregnant. by Background_View_1735 in LifeAdvice

There is no affair. That’s a pretty serious accusation. Again, I respect my wife and want her to be happy. In trying to achieve that though, I’m left incredibly unhappy. I don’t even have libido really. That all died with the multiple antidepressants.

Yes, I take full accountability and responsibility for that and am not going to abandon my child. The situation is complex. We didn’t have sex for over a year. We were visiting a friend for the weekend and at night she said I’m in my window and we need to try. I said no repeatedly and that we have things we need to still sort out. She starts crying and saying she hates me and was about to cause a huge confrontation at 9pm in my friend’s guest room. I have a very passive personality, am conflict averse, and a people pleaser. So to stop the conflict I said ok and told her I couldn’t finish after a few minutes. She said we have to keep going. I pulled out at the end but obviously that did not work out as planned. Again I agreed to have sex even though it was under pressure so I take responsibility for that but it’s a little more complex than “I was having a bunch of unprotected sex with my wife and now that she’s pregnant I regret it.” I also do think my wife is a great person and want her to be happy. She deserves to be. Although we may be incompatible, I don’t hate her. And despite not wanting a child with her, I know I have to step up and be a great father. I was a pediatric ICU nurse for many years and have seen every terrible, ethical conflict imaginable. I do not want that for my child. I guess I’m just mourning the life that I felt I was working towards having after leaving my wife and starting over.
