Good thread to resurrect!
That was funny AKAMonet! People get what they deserve in life. I have a similar story. I was in love with a man when I was in my early 20's. He told me about the 8 year old son that he had but only because the boy lived down the street from me. What he didn't tell me was that he had another 2 year old son who lived around the corner from him. He didn't tell me until we had been together around 3 months. I was hurt but nevertheless I stayed in the relationship because I was of the same mindset that I would win out because I was the "educated" one. This baby mama had an 8th grade education, was raised on welfare and currently on welfare herself.
Well after he stood me up numerous times and other incidents involving this child, I finally broke up with him about a year later. It was obvious to me that he was still involved with her. About 10 years later I run into him and he had ended up living with her and had a daughter. He couldn't stop bragging about this "golden child" son of his that he broke my heart for. Now I understand that this is his child and he should love him and think the world of him but I was still hurt to hear him talk like this and he never apologized for hurting me back then. Oh his son was "this" and "that" and an honor student, etc...
Two years ago his obituary was in the paper. The golden child got caught up with the wrong crowd and his murder remains unsolved.
My advice to younger women is to break it off if he doesn't tell you up front about his child. I don't care how good the sex is or whatever, cause if he lies about his own flesh and blood he aint no good for you.
