I’m 22 and I got my girlfriend’s mother, 42, pregnant – her father thinks it’s his
A MAN has revealed how he cheated on his girlfriend with her own mother – and to make matters worse, he also got her pregnant.
He and his partner met in high school and had been in a committed relationship for five years.
Now in college, the couple decided to avoid halls and move to an off-campus property, but the pressures of schoolwork soon put a strain on their relationship.
In an anonymous post on Reddit, he explains: “My friend is overwhelmed by her curriculum and has been nothing but distant and stressed.
“She has always suffered from bouts of depression and anxiety, but that has accelerated and, to be honest, it has created a rift in our relationship over the past year.”
The man further explained that his girlfriend’s parents had recently separated, which upset her even more.

“She invited her mother to live with us and we got along surprisingly well,” he says.
Maybe a little too good, some might argue.
“One night, after a few drinks, her mother made a move on me and it just went from there,” he explains.
“Last week she told me she needed to talk to me and that she was pregnant.
“I was especially confused because she is quite old and already had children.”
He explains that he asked her to terminate the pregnancy, but the mother said she needed time to think.
However, his girlfriend threw a curveball into the mix.
“We haven’t talked much this past week, but last night my friend told me that her mother was pregnant and that her mother had told her father,” he explains.
“So now my girlfriend’s dad apparently thinks the baby is his and after a quick chat with her mom she coldly told me she was keeping him and pretty much told me to stop.”
The man went on to say that he was aware that he was an asshole and that he could no longer be with his girlfriend, but that he was concerned about how she would handle the news.
Fellow Redditors were quick to discuss the situation, and it’s fair to say they haven’t had an easy time with the man.
“You’re an idiot,” one person wrote, “You let the wrong head do your thinking… and damn, it sure bit you in the a**.”
A second added: “Aren’t you going to tell your girlfriend you CHEATED? Why does this poor girl have to stay with a spineless, mindless cheater?
Four warning signs that your partner is cheating
Private investigator Aaron Bond from BondRees revealed four warning signs that your partner may be cheating.
They start taking their phones everywhere
In close relationships, it is normal to know each other’s passwords and use each other’s phones. If their phone habits change, they may be hiding something.
Aaron says, “If your partner starts changing his password, taking his phone everywhere, even around the house, or if he gets defensive when you ask to use his phone, this could be a sign that he’s not being faithful. “
“You should also look at how they put their phone down when not in use. If they look at the phone with the screen facing down, they may be hiding something.”
They start telling you less about their day
If partners cheat, they may start avoiding you. This could be because they feel guilty or because it is easier for them to lie to you.
“If you feel like your partner suddenly starts avoiding you and stops wanting to do things with you or stops talking about their day, this is another warning sign.”
“Partners often avoid their spouses or tell them less about their day because cheating can be difficult, remembering all your lies is impossible, and it’s an easy way to get caught,” says Aaron.
Their libido changes
Your partner’s libido can change for a variety of reasons, so it might not be a sure sign of cheating, but Aaron says it can be a red flag.
Aaron says: “Cheaters often have less sex at home because they are cheating, but occasionally they may also have more sex at home. This is because they feel guilty and use this increase in sex to hide their cheating. You may also find that your partner will introduce new things into your sex life that were not there before.”
They become negative towards you
Cheaters know that cheating is wrong and for them it will feel good. This can cause tension and anxiety within themselves that they will have to justify.
“To release the tension they feel inside, they will try to convince themselves that you are the problem and out of nowhere become critical of you. Maybe you didn’t walk the dog that day, do the dishes, or do a book read. Book to your children before bed. A small problem like this can now feel like a big problem and if you experience this, your partner may be cheating,” Aaron warns.
Meanwhile, a third commented: “I can’t believe what I just read. The poor daughter and father… this is very unfair to them. I’m amazed.”
While alerting Redditors to the situation, the cheater revealed that he planned to “walk away” from the situation.
He writes: “I decided to put the situation behind me and let it handle itself, I washed my hands of this.
“My girlfriend’s dad is claiming the baby and as far as anyone knows it’s his so he’s happy and her mom is also excited to have a baby as my girlfriend tells me.
“Plus, me and my girlfriend have been getting along so well lately and her mom is moving back home, so there’s no tension there anymore. Our affair is almost dead.”
He later revealed that her mother had sadly lost the baby and although he didn’t admit it to his girlfriend, they went to therapy together.
