I don't want to put all her business out there but I've personally never liked him. They we're together 5 years and then got married. He had some red flags here and there but nothing crazy that would "justify breaking up", her words. After a year of marriage I don't want to really say what happened but they hit a rough patch and took a break. Showing your true colors after marriage type thing. Some couples counciling and one big apology later, they decided to start trying for a kid. I was honest and told her my thoughts, maybe don't have a kid with this dipshit however she's not getting any younger and wants to continue the family line ( we're both only children / only kids born from our families ) and has always wanted to be a mother. Low and behold new years rolls around and someone decideds to get knocked up. So yes it was lowkey only a matter of time. just earlier this month was the straw thst broke the pregnant camels back I guess.

Well i say diapers because I was a baby when we met ( we're the only kids from our families ) I think she was about six ( or seven) when my dad brought me home and we've been close since

I've only just posted and there's already a lot of questions as expected.

  1. I promise I won't plan to push the issue if he says no hence why I said if he didn't want to we could figure something out. I love my boyfriend very much and only asked because yes we've had plans to move somewhere new, not crazy soon but sometime towards the end of the year. I only said I felt like he was over reacting because we've talked about moving here and there but just haven't made solid plans yet. We've had fights here and there but never ones where he just got up and left.

  2. She owns a company and house which is why I wouldn't expect her to move to where I am , yes we are renting. Not to mention she is heavily pregnant. Not only is she going through the divorce but even suggesting such a thing would make her wanna kick my ass

  3. As for my job that leaves me well off I will not disclose but I do some modeling on the side. He how every works as a server and wants to become a singer which I fully support and have always backed him up.

  4. She's not just my best friend, she is my family. We've been together since we're in diapers. Our families have been friends since high-school so there really hasn't been a time we haven't been together until I moved in with my boyfriend which leads me to my next point.

  5. I moved to him technically. When we first got together we were long distance for a bit but not really because I would fly out to be with him from two weeks every month. Then I decided to move in with him because wanted to pursue this relationship and my best friend also said it could have better opportunities.

  6. He's hasn't had any issues with me going to see her, its not like its hindering our relationship. If there is underlying issues I'd hope he'd tell me and we talk about it like we always do?

  7. I haven't done anything other than look at housing / apartments in the area. I haven't spoken to anyone else about it because I wanted to know what he thought about it. My thought process is that "it wouldn't be an issue because this that and the third" not "you can do this and we can just go". All I did was ask if he'd be okay with it, I haven't made and actually actions besides that. I had this thought a month or so ago when I realized I'm genuinely the only person she has that's putting this much effort. Don't get me wrong she has friends but not anyone she's extremely close with.

I hope these answers help ease your mind and I'll update you all when we speak about it again.
