Random Ways That Gay Men Met Their Boyfriends

Some of my favorite love stories are of gay couples overcoming adversity to find each other, despite the numerous roadblocks that society has constructed.

After all, who didn’t love Schitt’s Creek?

Sometimes they might have to look in unconventional places, but it’s good to know love is out there.

Here are 13 random places gay men found love.

1. Sometimes all it takes is a kiss

There’s a reason the lyric goes, “It’s in his kiss.”

2. It’s nice when you can find someone in high school

Because school is hard enough without one more thing.

3. After graduation, you might consider joining a gym

I personally hate the gym, but it seems like a good place to meet buff guys.

Image credit: Whisper

4. If the gym is too intense, you could join a sporting club

If I had known there were skee ball teams, I’d have been a lot sportier.

5. And then of course there are nightclubs

And strip clubs.

6. It’s ok to spend your 20s pursuing interesting professions

Apparently it’s more common than you might think.

7. Jumping out of a birthday cake is optional

Jumping out of a wedding cake would be next level.

Image credit: Whisper

8. If clubs aren’t your thing, there’s always the internet

And so many apps.

Image credit: Whisper

9. Like, SO many apps

An app for every occasion.

10. There’s an app for that too

You just never know.

Image credit: Whisper

11. And if apps aren’t your thing, there’s always games

The trick is to find your tribe.

Image credit: Whisper

12. And for the truly brave-at-heart: just make a connection

TikTok, Twitter, Instagram. Any DM will do.

Image credit: Whisper

13. Or make a connection in person

Fruit and veg can be extremely erotic.

The truth is, you just never know where you’ll meet your special someone–but to find them, you have to put yourself out there and be ready to embrace love.

Completely Petty Reasons People Refused a Second Date

Dating is hard.

What’s more, relationships are even harder, so if there’s something that really bothers you on a first or second date, it’s probably going to be a dealbreaker eventually, anyway.

Might as well call it off without wasting anyone’s time then – or at least, that’s probably what these 10 people figured when they gave totally petty reasons for refusing a second date.

10. And fast.

All The Words In Every Text He Sent Were Capitalized.

Trust Me, It Got ANNOYING.

9. Five. Months.

He would call me his “beautiful angle”.

He really didn’t know how to spell angel so for 5 months I put up with being an angle.

Also dated a guy who wanted to put a singlewide trailer on his parent’s front lawn and thought I was unreasonable for not wanting to move in with him once he did so.

8. Did they light up, though?

My mom stopped dating a guy because he unfastened and refastened the velcro on his shoes throughout an entire movie.

7. Was she Amy Farrah Fowler?

She would insist on a job interview level of formality whenever we talked.

For those asking for examples, the first time I asked her to my place went like this:

Me: So do you want to take this back to my place?

Her: Is this an invitation for intercourse?

Me: … yes… it is…

Her: Please ask again properly please.

6. Distracting is a nice word for it.

On the first and only date – she chewed her food with her mouth open – it was so distracting I couldn’t bear it.

5. That would be annoying.

He wore a Bluetooth piece in his ear. The constant blue light blinking from the side of his head was too much for me.

Another guy would text “dame” instead of “damn”. It wasn’t a typo either, it was every time.

4. This made me giggle.

She called someone “a pompous”. Nope, she didn’t say he was acting pompous or that he was a pompous ass. He was a pompous.

3. A tragedy for our time.

Not me, but someone refusing to date me because, “it’s weird you don’t have Instagram.”

2. Excuse me, are you Jerry Seinfeld?

Everything was going great, thought she was an amazing girl and we’d been seeing each other for two months. Go to her house for the first time and it was a little messy, but nothing to write home about. Then I go to the bathroom and put up the toilet seat…

I don’t think she’d ever cleaned the bottom of the toilet seat given how disgusting it was. From then on, the only thing I could think about when talking or being with her was that disgusting toilet seat.

1. This cannot be real.

He was wearing a hideous brown fake leather jacket, it was so old that the ‘leather’ had started to flake off and parts were just now canvas.

He kept stopping to look at himself in windows and saying ‘oh god I look so hot today’ ‘I just can’t believe how hot I look’ smoothing down his manky jacket, side eyeing me, expecting me to agree with him.

I left so he could be alone with his jacket.

I’ve gotta say, I don’t hate most of these reasons.

What would you put on this list? Share with us in the comments!

People Admit the Pettiest Reasons They’ve Refused a Second Date

Dating can be a minefield that requires a bunch of snap decisions to navigate with any satisfaction. We have to say yes or no to people and dates without having a ton of information, many times just based on a gut feeling.

Maybe some of the reasons we use to blow people off seem surface level, but I used to automatically decline anyone who didn’t list a last book they read – who has the time.

These 12 people also had petty reasons for not going on date #2, and they’re going to make me laugh.

12. It worked out, anyway.

She was super hot, but she smelled. I dunno if she didn’t shower or use deodorant, but she just smelled funky. I couldn’t do it. My best girl friend at the time was like, “just tell her”.

How do you tell a girl you’ve known for a few weeks that she smells bad?!?! So I just stopped talking to her. Brilliant.

11. As one should.

She was a volunteer at the Zoo and when kids asked her questions she didn’t know the answer to, she would make something up and lie.

Growing up on zoobooks and Steve Irwin, I take animal facts very seriously.

10. Definitely a red flag.

I went out on a few dates with a guy that I had been really into for months.

I was starting to realize he wasn’t the brightest bulb in the room.

Then one day he said he liked watching commercials on TV and that was that.

9. It seems like a small thing but it’s really not.

He didn’t re-rack his weights. I will never, for the life of me, understand why people don’t return/re-rack their weights.

8. Did he show her one I wonder?

She didn’t know that foxes were real animals.

She thought they were mythical and just in movies.

7. OK this is petty af though.

My new car kept scraping on the bottom while pulling out of their steep driveway to the main road.

After the fourth time of trying to be careful and it still scraped……..

6. It’s just too much.

I went out with someone who has the same name as my cat.

I brought him back to my house and the second I got home I greeted my cat and the guy looked at me and I knew right then and there that I couldn’t do this.

5. I pictured this in my mind and laughed out loud.

Went on a first date to the movies.

This f**king guy…instead of picking up his drink and lifting the straw to his mouth, he would put his hands on his knees, keeping his eyes on the screen, and lean over to the drink and ‘hunt’ for the straw with his face and his mouth contorted sideways trying to land on the straw.

4. This happened on Seinfeld.

Her complete inability to follow the plot of a movie.

“Who’s that?”

“Where’d he come from?”

“Why’d she do that?”

“Who is he again?”

I just couldn’t.

3. I don’t understand.

He stared at me blankly when I said the word “republican” when describing one of my family members.

I followed up and sure enough, he literally had no idea what the word republican meant and didn’t know about our largely two-party system. He was in his late 20’s.

If you’re not into politics, that’s one thing, but he had managed to live nearly three decades in our country without knowing basic information about our political system. My brain could not comprehend and I worried about what other basic information he had managed to avoid was.

‘Twas a hard no on my end.

2. That’s definitely odd.

A guy on a dating app said he wouldn’t date me because I didn’t like oysters.

1. That’s why you pick a fun name for your kid.

A very attractive, fun, smart woman asked me if I wanted to go get ice cream with her.

I turned her down but I guess in a way that she felt was flirty, so she kept asking.

And finally I had to tell her I was turning her down because she had both my mother’s first and last name.

She laughed a lot and agreed we couldn’t date.

I mean, I feel like some of these are fair.

What’s the pettiest reason you’ve ever broken something off? Confessions in the comments!

Was This Woman Wrong to Tell Sibling Her Body Hair Was Standing in the Way of Love?

When it comes to people’s physical appearances, keeping mum is often the best and really only course of action. When someone you love comes to you asking for advice or opinions – or is lamenting a problem when you think their appearance might solve the issue – the advice to keep silent isn’t always the best course of action.

This woman and her sister have a condition called PCOS that affects their body hair, leading to a thick, dark covering that society often doesn’t expect to see on women. Both girls used to shave/remove it but recently her sister has decided she wants to live more naturally – which is fine.

My sister (22F) and I (26F) both have PCOS. As a result we have very thick, dark body hair and facial hair that can honestly rival some men’s. I personally choose to shave regularly because I can’t stand how it looks and feels. My sister used to shave but about a year ago decided she wanted to stop. Of course I support her 100% and think she’s beautiful! What she does with her body is her business.

When the sister posts pictures of herself on dating sites, however, she uses old photos from when she was clean-shaven. Her dates often leave in the middle or refuse a second meeting, leaving the sister wondering exactly what she is doing wrong.

OP thinks she knows why, but stopped short of saying it for some time.

However, there is an issue. My sister uses old pictures of herself back when she was shaving on dating apps. This has led to a lot of problems in her romantic life. She often complains she never gets a second date and sometimes people even leave mid-date.

I think this is kind of her fault because she’s being disingenuous about her appearance which is a sh%tty thing to do. I have always bit my tongue and just supported her about this topic until recently.

When OP finally broke down and suggested she update her profile pictures, because leaving them gives her dates expectations that are not being met, her sister flew into a hurt rage, arguing that the right person won’t care.

OP agrees, but doesn’t think that’s really the point.

The other day she was venting again about another failed date. She asked me why this keeps happening to her. I told her she should consider updating her profile pictures. She got defensive and asked why she would need to do that. I told her that it would probably help so people know what she looks like since she looks a lot different than when they were taken.

She started getting extremely angry and said that “a little body hair doesn’t make that much of a difference” and “the right person won’t mind a little hair.”

Again, our body and facial hair is very thick and dark, and (imo) definitely makes a difference. When I don’t shave, I get a full mustache and beard, and my sister is the same. The people she’s going on dates with aren’t expecting her to show up with a full mustache and beard because her pictures show her clean-shaven.

The sister and even their family think OP was shaming her, which she maintains she was not. She was only encouraging her sister to be herself from the start if she truly wants to find the right guy.

I told her that she’s beautiful but she’s giving people false expectations which is why she’s having bad luck dating. She should just be honest from the start and the right one will come along! But she was infuriated and said I was being unsupportive and misogynistic. She has refused to talk to me since and my family is now calling me an asshole too because they think I was shaming her.

My sister even posted on social media that “body hair is beautiful, the stigma attached to it is misogynistic, it sucks when your own family won’t support you.”

Now she’s wondering whether or not she was wrong to say anything at all, but she still feels like her sister is in the wrong – not because she’s being herself, but because she’s misleading people and then blaming them for her mistake.

Did I go wrong somewhere here? I love my sister and don’t think body and facial hair is a bad thing at all! But I don’t think it’s right to basically catfish people and then blame them for not being interested, and treating them like they’re horrible people when you misled them…

AITA?

The internet, of course, has some thoughts, so let’s hear them out!

The top comment pointed out that her sister is obviously not as ok with how she looks now as she thought, so there are probably some deeper-seated issues at play.

Image Credit: Reddit

She’s attracting the wrong people, not the right ones, and the sooner she realizes that she’s the one at fault there, the better.

Image Credit: Reddit

And I mean, no one really likes a liar.

Image Credit: Reddit

Deceiving people isn’t the way to start any sort of experience.

Image Credit: Reddit

No one likes having their time wasted, you know?

There you have it! I have to say that I agree with OP on this one.

Was This Woman Wrong For TellingHer Fiancée She Used to Work as an Escort?

Honesty might be the best policy, but we all know that can get complicated when we’re talking about relationships that are important to us – relationships we really don’t want to lose.

We’re not all proud of our pasts, or sometimes we’re ok with them, but we expect that other people will judge the choices we’ve made previously – and that’s exactly the struggle this woman was having when she wondered whether keeping her former profession as an escort from her husband-to-be.

She did it because she wanted to, it wasn’t scarring or horrible the way it can be for some, and eventually she just decided to move on and do something else.

I (35F) just got engaged. I’ve been with him for two years and he’s amazing and think he’d be a great father to my children. There is however a secret I haven’t revealed. About three years ago before I met him I briefly worked as an escort. It wasn’t long (about 4 months) and I don’t have some sob story about how I felt abused and exploited because frankly I didn’t.

Like any job it had its good and bad parts. I don’t have some dramatic story about escaping it, I stopped simply because I didn’t want to do it anymore. I didn’t require therapy or rehab, I just moved on and got a normal job.

OP knows that she is healthy and has no baggage from a previous life, and she’s been honest as far as her number of sexual partners. That said, she doesn’t feel quite right about keeping something from him for the rest of her life.

She’s worried it will impact the way he sees her, though, and asks the internet for their opinions.

I have been regularly tested and have no STIs, nor so I have any emotional scars from it, so I told myself it’s now no one else’s business because it won’t impact any other relationships. However it feels wrong I can’t share this.

He once asked how many s^xual partners I had and I simply said “a lot” and told him technically the truth: that I was prolific at one point in my life but no longer am and don’t intend to do so.

I’m still scared to potentially ruin a great thing if I reveal it but I’m also not looking forward to keeping this a secret for life.

AITA for keeping it secret?

As always, they’ve got plenty to give, so let’s hear them out!

Basically, a lot of people think she’d be better off finding out how serious of a partner he’s going to be now, and not later.

Image Credit: Reddit

It’s less about her needing to be ashamed, and more about what type of man she’s found herself.

Image Credit: Reddit

If it’s a dealbreaker, he’s allowed to call it off before paperwork is signed.

Image Credit: Reddit

The bottom line is that it’s complicated.

Image Credit: Reddit

They both deserve to know what they’re getting into, right?

Image Credit: Reddit

I think that she’s the a$shole, not because she was an escort, but because she allowed things to get this far without coming clean.

I hope things work out when she tells him

A Woman Left Her Husband at a Clinic After He Pranked Her. Does This Make Her an A-Hole?

I’m not sure what kind of a person would pull a “prank” like this, but the world is filled with a lot of strange people.

And I can’t wrap my head around why anyone would think something like this would be funny…but the world is a strange place.

And this woman got put in a very weird and terrible spot thanks to a cruel prank played by her husband…but she wants to know if she was wrong for how she reacted about it.

Here’s what happened:

AITA for yelling at my husband then leaving him at the clinic after his prank?

“Me F28 and my husband M34 have been married for a year. Before I met him I got a dog named Ollie (A German shepherd) that was originally my sister’s but she passed away and I immediately took him to live with me.

My husband adores Ollie he sometimes jokes that he’s married to me only because of Ollie. He likes making jokes and doing pranks but some of them are downright nasty. He’d always get me worried by lying saying Ollie ran off when he was hiding him in a place I didn’t know about.

He knows how much worried and stressed out those pranks make me but he says my reaction is priceless and worth the yelling/lashing afterwards.

Ollie needed to be taken to the veterinary clinic for a check-up. My husband said he’d handle it. During the second visit to get the results. I received a call from my husband and his voice sounded like he wasn’t okay. I asked what was wrong. I got really worried after he said it was about Ollie.

I was starting to shake I kept asking what was going on and he told me that Ollie’s been diagnosed with cancer. He said he wanted me to come over to the clinic as soon as possible because Ollie was with the vet.

I couldn’t stand. I started asking is that why Ollie lost weight lately? And such. I rushed to the clinic and found my husband standing near the entrance with Ollie. First thing I noticed was him laughing hysterically telling me that I really bought in to his lie.

I was confused he said it was just a prank Ollie is perfectly healthy and handed me the results to check. After I checked I lost it. I lashed out at him. Ngl I called him awful names and his face suddenly turned red like he didn’t expect me to react that way.

He argued that I made it a big deal “obviously” and was being mean to him over a prank that didn’t even last an hour. I kept lashing out I didn’t give him a chance to keep talking I took Ollie and the keys then I left. I arrived to the clinic in a taxi. I left him at the clinic while me and Ollie went home by the car.

3 hours later he came back and was upset. He usually laughs even in serious situations but this time he didn’t. He argued that I shouldn’t have left him like that and that I overreacted. Said he was trying to make good memories to look back on and laugh at but I was unnecessarily overreacting. He stopped talking after that.

Just wanted to mention that this started months after his father’s passing. His family said he never mentions his dad nor keep anything of his although they were very close.

I never met his father but they told me he wasn’t suffering from anything and his death was sudden and my husband had a hard time processing it. This could be the reason for his behavior.”

Here’s how Reddit users responded.

This person made it clear: this was abuse.

Another reader also said that this is an abusive relationship and that her husband needs some help.

This reader said that this is gaslighting…”trying to make good memories”? I don’t think so…

Another reader pointed out that the husband needs some serious help.

Finally, this Reddit user said there’s no doubt about it: this woman’s husband is a huge *sshole.

So what do you think?

Did this woman act like an *sshole, or is she in the clear?

Do You Remember Your First Impression of Your Spouse? Here’s How Married Folks Responded.

I’m not hitched, but I definitely remember my first impression of some of the girlfriends I’ve had over the years.

Some of them were really good and some…well, let’s just say it wasn’t love at first sight.

Do you remember your first impression of your spouse?

These folks on AskReddit sure do!

1. Lucky you!

“We found each other on Tinder.

I ran into him on the way to the restaurant we were supposed to meet at and the first thing I thought was “Wow, he looks so much better than his profile pics. Thank God he can’t use a camera well or else he’d probably be snatched up already.””

2. Ouch!

“”I just know this guy is going to be a GIANT pain in the *ss.”

We were coworkers.

I was right.”

3. Those eyes, though.

“She has beautiful eyes and she was so pretty (still very much so).

I was so nervous, I went to bathroom and gave myself double finger guns and said don’t screw this up.

Still married 5 years!”

4. Did you just get out of jail?

“I thought he was an ex-convict.

He’s super muscular, tattoos covering every inch of his body; all around just a very threatening looking guy. He came up to me and told me “I think you’re adorable. Can I have your number?”

I was petrified because I have never dated or attracted anyone of this type. But he charmed me. Turns out he’s a huge softy with a goofy personality.

He cracks up at the smallest things, he loves sweets like a little kid, getting tucked in at night and is scared of the dark. I love him to bits!”

5. Pleasantly surprised.

“The very first impression was pleasantly surprised.

For context, it was my first day at my first (student) job, and my boss was showing me around and introducing me to everyone by going to all office rooms, one after the other.

My now-husband was in the very last room, and I was “warned” that that team was a bit “special”, mainly because of their very direct and sometimes weird/harsh sense of humor. What surprised me was his hair color, as my now husband was the only one in this department of ~50 people with brightly colored hair.

So while I didn’t get to talk to him much that day, I remembered him for his hair color alone. It took us a few more weeks getting into contact and to eventually start dating, last weekend was our ten year anniversary (and third wedding anniversary), and he still rocks his brightly colored hair.”

6. You’re cool.

“I thought he was so cool.

We had talked online for a few days but it wasn’t until I saw him walking towards me when we met for our first date that I realized he was way out of my league.

Luckily he thought the same thing about me.”

7. A loveable dork.

“I was a bartender and he was one of the first to get a drink from me that day.

So I didn’t think much, I was still trying to screw my head on and jump into the shift. He kept coming back tho, not always to get a drink sometimes just to stand near my bar while I made drinks. His friend brought him there for his birthday, yet he spent most of his time with me.

Once I noticed him, I thought he was a lovable dork. I needed to a have a conversation with him where I could be myself and not in working mode”

8. They don’t always matter.

“I don’t remember.

I was wasted and have absolutely no recollection of meeting her at all. Her first impression of me however was that I was obnoxious and probably gay.

I guess first impressions aren’t always the most important.”

9. Man of mystery.

“”Wow, that guy is cute and quiet. He’s so mysterious!”

My husband and I met working in a bookstore.

I asked him if he ever talked, he looked me in the eye, nodded, then walked away. I was hooked!”

10. Drawn to him.

“Electric blue eyes that you can see from across the room, wicked good sense of humor, confident, so attractive, love his freckles.

I felt drawn to him like a magnet, and literally had an almost overwhelming urge to rub my face on him like a cat, which totally freaked me right out. I immediately texted my sister and asked if that had ever happened to her because I felt like such a weirdo.

She screenshotted the convo and saved it; now she sends it to me every year on that date.”

11. You better thank that guy.

“Met my wife on a blind date.

First impression was that the guy who set us up did me a total solid.

That was about 14 years ago now.”

12. Out of your league.

“When I first saw her I thought she’s hot and way out of my league.

After mutual flirting and going on a date I thought she was smart, funny, attractive, and still out of my league. Been married for five years.

Nothing has changed, I still think she’s out of my league.”

What was YOUR first impression of your spouse?

Tweets About the Reality of Having Siblings

If you grew up in a house with a few kids in it, you know what was going on behind those doors.

Alliances were formed, people argued and fought with each other, occasionally a soft drink was thrown in someone’s face during dinner.

It was a great time!

And underneath it all was one simple thing: LOVE. A very complicated and unique kind of love, but yes, it was still love.

Let’s look at some funny tweets about what it’s like to have siblings. And tell us if you think any of this looks familiar…

1. Whose idea was that?

Sounds like a really bad one to me…

2. You’re going to need a lot of strength for this.

Sometimes, you just get pushed to the limit.

3. That was resolved quickly.

It can change just like that.

4. I’m familiar with this.

Don’t forget about the names of the pets, too.

5. Funny how that works.

Wait a second…I think that’s my jacket.

6. Put it all down in your little book.

You’re gonna need the evidence later on.

7. Good thing they’re not yelling at me.

This always felt really good.

8. Drives me nuts!

The trash can is literally two feet away.

9. You better run for it!

If you get caught in there again, you’re gonna be in trouble.

10. She came out of nowhere.

He hit me first!

11. You gotta be on top of this game.

I called Shotgun!

12. Both of these look very familiar…

Tweets About Having Siblings That Are Spot-On

I grew up in a house with four siblings and let me tell you, it was kind of a madhouse.

People always coming and going, brothers and sisters arguing, parents telling us to shut up…it was very interesting. And I’m still kind of shocked that our parents decided to keep all of us…

And most of the time, despite the activity, it was a lot of fun! And if you grew up with siblings, you know that you’ll always have a unique bond that will last forever.

Let’s check out some funny tweets about the realities of having siblings.

1. A terrible idea.

You might as well just rip that part of the wall out.

2. They’re good at getting you to the extra level.

And that’s NOT GOOD for you.

3. I’m trying to concentrate here!

What the hell is wrong with you!

4. I’m not falling for that one.

I learned my lesson last time.

5. You just don’t know what it was like.

A fun part of growing up!

6. It sure does!

You knew they were never gonna actually do it…probably…

7. That’s amazing.

And I bet you held it over his head that whole time.

8. Use it or lose it.

It’s all a mind game.

9. Go get it yourself.

“You ain’t broke.”

10. Really giving them the business.

Some things never change…

11. It was usually whoever was older.

And I never got over it, either!

How about you?

Do you have siblings?

If so, tell us some funny stories about them in the comments.

Thanks in advance!

This Guy Doesn’t Want to Give Any Money to His Pregnant Ex. Is He a Jerk?

I have a feeling that this story is gonna contain a whole lot of drama.

Which is good if it doesn’t involve you, I suppose…

A man in his twenties shared his story on Reddit’s “Am I the *sshole?” page because he’s having some inner turmoil about a situation involving his ex girlfriend…and some money…and a baby…

Let’s take a look.

AITA for not giving money to my pregnant ex?

“My ex (25f)and I (27M) were together about 6 months but during that time we were free to see other people.

Things weren’t working out so we broke up. Over a month after that she finds out she’s pregnant and tells me baby is mine. But I already knew she was seeing other guys so it was also possible the baby isn’t.

She got mad that I was having doubts but I said if we got a paternity test and it showed I’m the dad then yeah I’ll 100% be involved.

My Ex didn’t want that and she’d rather wait until after the baby is born to get a test done so I said that’s fine, it’s her choice. But I won’t get myself involved unless I know the baby is mine.

Like I already know I could be set up for child support if I start helping out now and then later it’s revealed I’m not the father. (I live in the US and have heard this stuff happens a lot)

I’d rather not even risk it you know?

She’s about 8 months now and I have started saving up money, reading up some books, making shopping cart lists of baby clothes and furniture to buy incase I am the father so it’s not like I’m not preparing for this at all.

So right now money is tight with her since I know she’s only working part time. She doesn’t have the money for a baby bassinet or clothes because she practically lives paycheck to paycheck.

She started asking to let her borrow money for baby stuff but I’ve told her no. Far as I know she doesn’t have other family she’s close to and friends are the same as her with money.

But I already said I’ll start giving her money and helping out once I know her son is mine. Otherwise I’d rather not get involved. I’ve even told her to reach out to the other guys who could also be the dad’s but she said one is even more broke and the other she hasn’t been able to contact.

So for right now seems like I’m the only one actually able to offer financial support.

We have a couple mutual friends and I’m getting sh*t from them because they know I have the money to help out. She could be the mom of my kid so the least I could do is provide.

They say they would if they had the money, since I do have the means and this baby could be mine I should already be helping.

They have a point. The baby could be mine and I’ll be happy to help out…once I know he is in fact mine. But everyone else is seeing it as I’m being too cold and inconsiderate.

I don’t think I am but want to know what others believe…

AITA?”

Here’s how people reacted on Reddit.

This person stated the obvious: this guy doesn’t owe her any money until she can prove he’s the father.

Another reader said that this man needs to insist on a DNA test and not give up a cent until it’s proven that he’s the father.

This individual argued that this whole situation is very suspect and that if it’s not his kid, it’s not his responsibility.

Finally, a person said that it seems like the woman has latched on to him because she knows he has some cash. And it’s pretty telling that she has refused to get a DNA test…
