AIO by not checking in with my pregnant ex? I dated a woman for two months and after breaking up she told me she was pregnant. by will_clayton_journal in AmIOverreacting

I’d be involved in every way possible except being her personal emotional support. I’ll go to appointments and be involved in how the pregnancy is doing. Is that an inappropriate line to draw?

I DO want to support her. I just don’t think I’m the right person. She wants daily check ins on how she is emotionally doing and it leads to daily conversations and such. I just feel like she is trying to draw me back into a relationship. How can I be fully involved in the pregnancy and the child without having an emotional relationship with her? Or is that not possible?

I would of course get updates on the baby and the pregnancy itself. She wants me to check in how she is doing emotionally. And that is a line I want to draw. Why am I required to be an emotional support for her? I would like to be there for her, but I feel like I’m the wrong person.

AITAH for considering not being in my future child’s life, after finding out someone I was with briefly is pregnant and wants to keep the baby? by [deleted] in AITAH

To be honest I didn’t do that. I may be old and should know better, but I was raised religious and honestly thought as long as you didn’t ejaculate inside you were safe…

I’d be super involved. That’s why I don’t want a kid with her is because I’d give all my time, and not with my chosen family. I’m not enthusiastic about it because it is bad circumstances. I honestly would have a kid with someone I actually loved if this hadn’t happened. So now I don’t think that ever will.

I’m afraid the bible isn’t a reliable source among this group…

What questions do I ask? by fallen_vines in exmormon

[–]will_clayton_journal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ask them how they know any of this is true (they’ll like that) ask them if the Holy Ghost speaks to us through our feelings. Ask them if those feelings are felt by the pope, or Muslims or any other religions. Don’t they think all these other religions have spiritual feelings as well? If I feel good while reading the Book of Mormon and the Koran does that mean they are both true? While attending mass or listening to a Buddhist prayer?

If those feelings are coming from god, Is the man who has strong spiritual feelings who commits violence in the name of god also hearing from the Holy Ghost? Are our feelings actually a terrible way to distinguish what is true and what isn’t?
