[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]True, but we also do not law the extent of the conversations they had about this prior. If he indicated he was okay with everything, which given his obstinate desire to NOT TALK TO HIS WIFE, she may think they are just in a different place than they are. [/quote]

I don't agree they needed to have a discussion beforehand for her not to crow about how the baby is going to resemble some other dude. That's just basic humanity.[/quote]

Really? Presumably, they chose the donor together based on set of characteristics they both wanted. If they have had those discussions, she may not know that all of a sudden he is bothered by her talk.

Further, there may be a lot of fear on her part, too. She chose her husband as the first choice for the baby. When you us a donor, all you have is a list of characteristics, not a flesh and body person in from of you. All you have is the hope that they get the characteristics on paper, and not the ones you do not know about. her fear may result in trying to own the situation and make it explicit.

DH already said her way is to make light of things and stay positive. His is to brew and stew. Unless he tells her, she has no way of knowing and WE don't know what they have discussed before.[/quote]
