Hold your finals, hold your tears, but do NOT hold onto this man. He didn’t just cheat – he created a whole new life while playing house with you. And he waited FOUR MONTHS to tell you? Only coming clean because pregnancy made it impossible to hide? That’s not confession, that’s damage control.
I know you’re numb right now. Six years of “forever” plans just got nuked by one night of selfishness. But don’t you DARE feel gross about yourself – the only person who should feel disgusted is the one who betrayed six years of trust faster than you can say “positive pregnancy test.”
“We never really fought” doesn’t mean shit when he’s out here fighting for the gold medal in relationship destruction. Your “best friend” spent four months looking you in the face, planning a future, while knowing he might have a baby on the way with someone else. That’s not friendship – that’s fraud with a side of gaslighting.
Focus on your finals run because your education is the only thing that won’t betray you. But after that? Time to face reality: Whatever future you planned with him just got rewritten into someone else’s story. He’s about to be someone’s father (maybe) – that’s not something you can sweep under the rug of forgiveness.
Don’t let six years of history trap you in a lifetime of hurt. Sometimes the hardest part isn’t losing someone you love – it’s realizing they weren’t who you thought they were in the first place.
Let him deal with his baby mama drama. You’ve got a whole life to rebuild without his chaos in it.
