[quote=Anonymous]Wow, what a crazy situation! Sorry you're having to deal with this, OP. I'm in a same-sex marriage and my wife and I found ourselves in a slightly similar situation years ago (albeit not as crazy, admittedly). We had a known donor but were having lots of trouble getting pregnant. We knew one other person who could fit the bill, a close friend of mine, and in retrospect, definitely too close, but he was uneasy about the prospect and ultimately said no. We definitely didn't try to persuade him to change his mind or anything, but for personal reasons, we knew we weren't comfortable with the sperm bank scenario. We then heard about the "Known Donor Registry" which, while it sounds crazy, has proven to be successful for many women who go about it the right way and have all their legal paperwork in order. It definitely comes with its share of weirdness but it's another option. Ultimately we did IVF with our first donor and all turned out well but we spent a fair amount of time on this site beforehand (and even met with someone). Good luck![/quote]
