Today, I discovered that when my husband agreed to donate sperm so an infertile friend and his wife could have children, there was nothing "artificial" about the insemination. FML

Then there should no longer be anything "factual" about you two being married.

Whip his ass. No don't do that. Bad idea. But I'd seriously get a lawyer or a marriage counselor.

Ya a discussion prior to the donations probably should have taken place. Like "hey babe care if I start sleeping with a buddies wife for a good cause"? FAIL

When he said "Bill is infertile and him and his his wife would like my assistance to give her a child", I do believe there were some details glossed over in your conversation.

Some dreams have the cheesiest things put together to a step further...hope your next one is about your crush/girlfriend...

Sorry OP, he should've told you. However you have to admit that it's a much more cost effective and simpler way to conceive a child than AI.

True, but the cost argument doesn't work as well when turkey basters are available.

Artificial insemination is an expensive procedure. Your husband may have been kind of dumb about the way he went about doing things, but it's not likely that there was any ill intent behind his actions. Hopefully you guys can work through this.

That is actually quite a common method for donating sperm. Granted, most of the people donating are single...so that's not cool. He definitely should have talked to you about that first though, sorry he was a jerk OP

That doesn't mean he wasn't donating.... Some people wish to have a natural insemination with the donor. Unless he lied and was really having an affair, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. You should be supportive of his good deed, even if it involved sleeping with another woman, although he should have told you first.

"You should be supportive of his good deed"?? I'm sorry, if you don't draw the line at your husband sleeping with someone else, where do you?

But "should have told you first" is a BIG but.

He had a reason for what he did so just talk to him.

I would have thought the friend would have something to complain about there too. Unless it was a three-way.
