Boredom. Testing out a story they are writing. I can actually see this as a lifetime movie, especially if you move back to a small Midwestern town, you eventually fall for a handsome local man and your ex returns in 5 years and dies falling off a cliff. You should also know that in the age of DNA you don't have a snowball's chance in hell at keeping this a secret forever. |
Yes. If the man has reason to believe he is the father, he can petition to have paternity established. A friend believed he was the father of a high school gf’s oldest based on appearance and dates. He had no idea because she never told him. There was another man in the picture that was the only dad the little girl knew. Turned out my friend was the bio dad. |
| Following the novel idea ... Would OP benefit from taking something with his DNA with her? Just in case she later wanted to prove paternity later for her or the child’s own reasons. |
| Make him pay child support and his wealthy family can start a college fund. |
| I don’t think it’s credible to leave and pretend you miscarried. He will check you out. I would fake a miscarriage right here, before leaving DC. Wait a few days after, acting sad and upset. And then I would say I need a couple of weeks away, alone, to rest and recover. And from there, I would call him saying I am breaking up. |
He cheats because he’s f@cked up. Cheating isn’t anything you did or didn’t do. |
Yes fake a miscarriage, but not leave right away. give it a few weeks and then discover evidence of his cheating and then leave for that. |
|
Can't bother reading through all of this but has this been answered, how far along were you when you found out he was cheating?
You're about 3 months now, so how long have you been sitting on this? |
| I’m getting troll vibes. |
| Leave then consult a lawyer who can advise you on your next step. Make sure to tell them that he is abusive, and you’ve left him for both you and your child’s safety. Get it all documented so he has less of a chance for custody, even partial. |

So let’s say you get away with moving across the country to your family and he never finds out about the baby.
You can never ever post anything about your child online. You’ll have to monitor all your friends and family social media so they don’t post something he could stumble across and connect the dot. Best case scenario, he never finds out about it. But your child has a missing part of themselves. They will wonder about who their Dad is. For some it doesn’t cause issues, for others it does. From your child’s perspective, does this seem like a good idea? Worst case scenario, he does find out. Sues for custody and you have to send your baby to this abusive a$$hat every summer and split holidays with him. |
| If OP's story is real, I guarantee you this guy will hire a PI. They've been together for awhile, had planned to get married, and were actively trying to get pregnant. He KNOWS she's pregnant. I'm sure he knows exactly where she is going to run of to. Since he has money and comes from money, he will very likely investigate whether or not OP had the baby. Or maybe he doesn't want to have to deal with child support and just won't care. Who knows. |
He knows that I know already. I have been asking him for several weeks and he finally admitted it. |
I found out around 10 weeks. I was suspicious shortly after finding out we were pregnant. He got sloppy. He occasionally goes out of town for work we usually talk in the evenings. All of a sudden I couldn't get in touch with him he would say he was so exhausted he went right to sleep. When I first questioned him he yelled at me to " knock it off" " stop being so insecure". I feel like he gaslit me. One time he smelled different. I chalked it up to a shampoo he used at the hotel. Two of our friends told me to relax he was just busy and wouldn't do that to me especially during covid. I didn't sit on it at all. When he yelled at me I dropped it. |
My original plan was to say I miscarried here. I think he would try to visit to see if I was ok if it happened back home. |
