Y’all I can’t. This waste of space takes advantage of a teen he considers “trash”, abandons his child to a life of poverty and has the nerve to call her “trash”, and then harasses the wife for “manning up” in his place

[–]SextMexFDS Apprentice40 points41 points42 points 6 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Honestly it sounds like she should just throw the whole man away. What trash he is. Having an affair, not stepping up as a father at all, and not dealing with the consequences of that?

[–]darkhorse8419FDS Newbie[S] 38 points39 points40 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, everyone is saying how great of a person she is, but I’m giving her the side eye for staying with this garbage dump for 20 years. There is no way I could love or respect a man who would abandon his own kids. Then she offers her a nanny job? Really sis? The best part is the husband wanting to claim this poor child as his daughter at the end. I would have definitely left him a long time ago.

[–]love2citFDS Newbie14 points15 points16 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

She put her body through hell for 5 more kids for him too. I have to say, good on her for being so kind. I know 21 years have passed, but I’m not sure I wouldn’t hold some kind of (misplaced!) bitterness.

[–]extraacct1234Ruthless Strategist11 points12 points13 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Kindness isn't a virtue in this case. Setting yourself on fire to keep somebody else warm might be kind but it's stupid.

[–]take1990FDS Apprentice15 points16 points17 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I CANNOT stand men who are happy to sleep with a woman, but then call her “trash”, “slut” etc once they’re done using her. No YOU are the trash person.

[–]butterflymeadowzzFDS Disciple3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I really can’t. that was another kind of strain, reading that.

[–]MaisiebrFDS Newbie26 points27 points28 points 6 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Sometimes it's not about who's the pickme (though I agree it's not magically someone else's fault that she's with an asshole), but about how much of a piece of shit is the husband. Men only care about the children that are from their current girlfriend/wife (but sometimes they don't care about even them), and shit on their past lives. Whether the child is from an affair or from a long lasting past marriage doesn't make a difference, if the man is like this.

Sometimes it's not about the woman being a pickme, but being naive and believing the ideas about love we get fed every day since the day we are born.

[–]jewdy09Pickmeisha™️15 points16 points17 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

The reason I never had kids before I not longer had an option was I never dated a man I trusted enough to take in that responsibility with me. I’ve never even dated a man that I trusted enough to co-sign a loan for. Fuuuuuck.

I think the biggest risk when having kids is that you will soon be trying to raise them alone while fighting some fuck face about why the ~25% of his income in court ordered child support for the family who once benefited from nearly 100% of his income isn’t too much to expect him to pay as the cost for a do over life.

[–]penelopekittyFDS STRATEGY COACH7 points8 points9 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

This. In my case it wasn't even about the money, but I could tell by the way my ex-husband treated our pets that he didn't have the patience or empathy to be a good father. I am thankful every day I never had children.

[–]darkhorse8419FDS Newbie[S] 17 points18 points19 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I respectfully disagree. I would lose all respect and love for a man who would prey upon a child, and then emotionally and financially abandon the child he created. This woman stayed with a soulless demon for her own reasons, but that doesn’t automatically make her a good person.

[–]popfridayFDS STRATEGY COACH26 points27 points28 points 6 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

She’s not even a pick me cause she’s doing what the fuck she wants and ignoring her low value husbands low value behavior(ie ignoring the mess HE created).

I mean I could NEVER but let’s not take focus away from what a steaming pile of horse shit this joke of a man is.

[–]saxophonepaxFDS Newbie29 points30 points31 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

The very moment you stay with a man who has cheated on you...you are a pick me. Period.

[–]popfridayFDS STRATEGY COACH3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Agree to disagree.

To me a pick me is someone who is desperately vying for a man’s love, makes excuses for him and has no self esteem.

A woman who was betrayed in the deepest way, and stays most likely to avoid being a single mother and dealing with the fall out, while actively ignoring her POS husband’s demands on how to handle his BS behavior is something else entirely, at least imo.

You can argue “staying for the kids” is not the way to go, but to confuse that very difficult choice for being a desperate man worshiping pick me is rooted in misogyny the way I look at it. To read this woman’s horrible and sad post and to immediately call her the ultimate pick me is sad to me. I can’t stand real pick me’s but to call a woman who has been betrayed and has to make a heart aching decision that will change the rest of her life a “pick me” is belittling and anti-woman, especially considering the context of the post where she’s doing whatever the fuck she wants to the benefit of an innocent child.

Again, just because I wouldn’t do what she’s doing, doesn’t give other women the right to look down on her and make fun of her.

God for bid any man, no a husband, puts us in this situation where children are involved. There are tons of pick mes out there. Mothers and wives who are betrayed and decide to try and stay for the family aren’t necessarily them. Unless they are doing it to be loved by the cheating man and are desperate about it, it’s a whole other conversation and topic IMO, even if they should leave. This post didn’t give me those vibes at all.

Wouldn’t wish this reality on my worst female enemy but sadly, it’s all too common cause men are shit and women get called names due to the mans actions.

But yeah let’s just shit on her right? It’s easier and makes us feel better than her.

Facts

[–]darkhorse8419FDS Newbie[S] 18 points19 points20 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

No she’s definitely a pick me, because no one else would stay with a man lacking in character and morality, and as much as he’s the villain, she’s not the hero.

[–]popfridayFDS STRATEGY COACH4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

It’s just interesting to me how a man cheats, and everyone looks to the woman to call her names first based on what he did.

Internalized misogyny. The mans a cow period.

[–]darkhorse8419FDS Newbie[S] 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I guess men know their default setting is trash, because she’s trash for being seduced by a wealthy older man, and he’s not trash for pursuing a teenager as a fucking 30 year old grown ass man. Nope. I would have pulled a Dexter on his ass: I live in Florida too, the Everglades is a 3 1/2 hour trip..

[–]butterflymeadowzzFDS Disciple4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I get not letting the piece of shit off the hook, he should have to deal with that in some way.

[–]take1990FDS Apprentice8 points9 points10 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

I really hope the top commenter on the thread is being sarcastic. Being a doormat woman apparently makes you likeable on the internet.

And IRL. Unfortunately.

[–]aclumsygirlAt-Risk Pick Me Youth9 points10 points11 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I'll take the unpopular view here-- things are a lot more complicated when you're married to the shitheel guy and have kids with him. There's much more at stake. You put your kids first. So I'm not into judging this woman. I think her impulse to help this (adult) child in her predicament is impressive, and admirable. I'm not sure I could do it myself.

[–]TBearRyderFDS Newbie3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Her husband is dead wrong for abandoning his child that he had by a teenager when he was in his 30’s. Financial support is not all a child needs, they need guidance as well. Now she has to nanny in the home her siblings ? He’s truly a deadbeat !

Jeeeeeeezus

[–]quasarbarFDS Newbie3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

The wife is a very sweet lady to help out the young woman, who is innocent and has really been screwed over by life and by her father. The husband is, of course, a major piece of shit. It's sad that his wife didn't leave his worthless ass. He should get down on his knees and thank his lucky stars she stayed with him, but instead he has the audacity to get mad at her for being a better parent than he is when he's the actual parent? The fuck.

[–]darkhorse8419FDS Newbie[S] 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

She has to have a major screw loose if she lived with this man all these years, and believes he’s a good man, father, and husband otherwise.This disgusting behavior would make a good person’s skin crawl. If I would have stayed, it would have been for the long con. Having him sign a sweet ass life insurance policy, and then cashing it in ten years later to share it with his abandoned daughter.
