Kinda sus behavior

By dumped and dusted - 13/07/2016 17:35 - United States

Today, three weeks after my girlfriend told me she was pregnant, she admitted it was a lie. Turned out it was just a test to see if I'd break up with her or not. I didn't, but I did just break the bank buying all the things we'd need for an actual kid. FML

Good for you for making the right decision and sticking by your child. However she is a lying bitch and doesn't deserve a guy like you. Put that bitch on the curb and move on.

was everything non refundable? Seems easy enough to just bring it back.

Hopefully you mean your ex-girlfriend. You're a sir for sticking around but she doesn't deserve you after lying so hard

She was wrong for doing that, but you jumped the gun on buying stuff. There is a waiting period to see if it ends in a miscarriage. Stuff is also refundable.

Just because there's a higher risk of a miscarriage until a certain point doesn't mean there's a waiting period to buy things. He could have been beyond excited to start getting things.

I don't know if it's just me but I just don't understand how people who find it okay/feel they have the right to "test" their significant others, especially with matters like this. I'd be livid if a guy tried to test me like this:

Just return it? Also, why would you rush out and get it all now?

Maybe he was excited? Plus depending how many stores he went to it could be a major hassle to get all the receipts together and go back to all the stores to return it plus take it from someone who's had to return baby stuff it's not easy, he could be very hurt by it.

you made the right decision by deciding to stay and raise your child. but I think it's time to leave her after that. that's a big lie and who knows what else she would lie about. but perhaps go and return the items you bought to get a refund!

Just for future, 33% of pregnancies end in miscarriage, most of those before the first ultrasound. I know you were excited, and I am sorry you were conned. Someone who can lie about that, what else is she lying about?

Good luck there mate as for the bitch top marks for treachery in what she did ,...id kick her out say its a test after 4 weeks

Don't break up with her, she probably didn't know you would go to all that effort so soon without telling her. She was just trying to test if you were loyal or not.

Even if she didn't know that(she waited weeks to expose the lie), "testing" is only used by stupid, immature people not ready for relationships.

The issue isn't the effort he put in. The issue is she lied in a big big way, and kept it up for nearly a month. A better way to find out where your relationship stands in a particular situation is to have a hypothetical discussion!

Just learn from the experience. Your gf taught you not to trust her. And this comment section taught you about the frequency of miscarriages. You did jump the gun a bit but the day I found out I was pregnant I went out and bought a baby toy. It's only natural. You're a good guy OP.
