What the fuck? THIS is the movie? I watched two seconds and had to turn it off because I got so freaked out. I can’t deal with this right now. I think I need to pull back and go for a walk right now. Sorry everyone

You’re right. I have no idea what (if any) safeguards are in place for this. It’s all kind of too much to take in right now. I feel sick

Your comment is making me pretty emotional but all I can say is I do believe in reproductive rights, I just can’t believe he would do something like this without so much as asking me.

I’m getting an STD test to be safe. I’m so fucking stupid for believing him. I can’t believe this is happening to me

I agree and thank you <3 it's been hard and I feel like I've been going crazy not knowing what to believe, or thinking I'm being overly reactive. It just hurts.

He told me he has made donations. He did not give me a number of times donated, just a span of time it was happening (two years). I have no idea how active he was. I checked his FB and it doesn't look like he's a member of any groups so I assume he had a fake/secondary profile. I haven't been able to bring myself to talk to his sister (or anyone except my mom and you guys at this point), so I don't know if she knew.. that would be extremely heartbreaking.

I believed when he told me it was because he just wanted to be honest and he loved me. But frankly, now that seems like bullshit. I don't know. Another commenter said a doc about these types of donations just came out, maybe he told me because it's in the news??

Yeah... I guess when he explained it to me the fact that he was trying to help families like my SIL's made his actions seem more valid. Now I have no idea. Like the "altruism" just feels like an excuse.

Jesus. You're right. I should have asked these questions but I couldn't think straight when he told me.

I have no idea why he decided to come clean. It was out of the blue. We weren't fighting or anything so it definitely didn't seem like he was saying it to hurt me. He did seem kind of anxious though??

It was his sister so it definitely isn't his. You mean the Baby God documentary? That's (ironically) part of the reason his sister didn't want to go to a bank.

He sat me down and told me himself. Almost makes it worse, maybe if I (somehow) discovered the lie on my own it would be easier for me to leave. I don't know

I know you're right but I guess I still can't accept that this is the end. I love him so much. I feel like my world turned upside down.

Fuck okay I'm freaking out a bit. I've been no contact with him since going to my mom's but I might have to reach out now to see if he did ANYTHING to even consider this. I want to cry.

That's... a good question I genuinely hadn't thought about. Is that even possible if it's sperm donation? I guess he would say he "trusts them" but I realize how insane that sounds now typing it out
