So wait, she left her partner because he didn't want another child but acknowledges that even in doing so there is only a small possibility she will get another one?

She blew up an entire relationship with the father of her child despite actively knowing her chances are slim?! Blimey. More so than most this is a story to point to if someone was to ask why you don't want a marriage or LTR

It is just not even close to rationale behavior.

I would like to say I am shocked. And a couple of years ago probably would have been

Edit - it just gets worse with the second post

abbreviations:
DP - "darling partner"
DS - "darling son"
DC - "darling child"

why they don't just call son "son" instead of DS I have no fucking idea

She had 98% of the life she wants, and she threw it all away for an infinitesimal chance to get 99% of what she wants, despite the fact that she and the child will almost certainly end up far worse off than they were.

Did I miss anything?

Wait... I did miss something: she brought this entirely on herself by having a baby with a man to whom she was not married and who did not share her desire for multiple children. Now she's one more aging baby-mamma trying to find a HVM who for some reason wants to raise another man's child, and jump right into having one with a woman with a history of abandoning her baby-daddies.

If she could read this I would tell her, "Go back to your son's father and do whatever you have to do to make it work with him. Not only does a boy need his father, but you're never going to do better yourself."

It's like suing someone for $1000, but the legal fees are $15000. Anyone with half a brain cell can see that the equation isn't balanced.

She decided to ruin her own life on a hunch that re-entering the market as a single mother would be the same as it was a decade ago. She could have literally asked anyone and they would have told her not to do this. What a fucking idiot.

She has baby rabies so severe she should be in solitary confinement.

Take note and steer well clear of similar specimens, gentlemen.

I just quit my job but I want to have financial success. Can somebody tell me some uplifting stories about entrepreneurs while I drink, smoke weed, play video games, and buy funko pops?

Ok, this one I actually threw my phone across the room. Jesus Christ woman...

Writing Romantic Fan Fic for aging women has got to be a BOOMING industry

Impressive-Cricket-8 · 2021-11-06T17:06:35+00:00

Why is the child she already has barely mentioned? Is such a child so meaningless that mother is willing to compromise his/her life seeking for child #2? She doesn't need children, she needs a psychiatrist. Her kid will grow feeling neglected, because the child his/her mother really want is not him/her. I'm hoping the father will get full custody (although that rarely happens).

mustangfrank · 2021-11-06T17:28:16+00:00

I look at what some people here have said.

Elephant in the room!!!! What has she been doing with her life from 22 (out of college) to 29. These were her prime years. If she were fucking bad boy, thugs, Mongo the Bad Ass Biker, etc. She go exactly what she deserves. I don't give a fuck about her being 35. The important issue is her youth.

cautionTomorrow555 · 2021-11-06T20:37:45+00:00

Jesus christ she tossed away a perfectly good relationship with a guy who treats her good and gave her a kid because she wanted one more kid even though it is unwise to do so. Two conclusions from this women can never be happy with good enough and this is what you are rewarded with when you are the beta bucks bailout.

Disciple_Of_Cheesus · 2021-11-06T21:30:55+00:00

4th failed relationship, huh? That sure says a lot...

bardownhalfclap · 2021-11-06T20:10:11+00:00

What a fucking idiot.

Fancuku · 2021-11-06T20:38:46+00:00

Dafuq are DP, DC and DS?

Emotional_Ad_643 · 2021-11-07T06:21:38+00:00

I love how she spins it around at the end "Oh don't worry! I won't make that mistake again... I won't seek a family life at the expense of my own self worth."

Bitch, that is not what the fuck the comment was saying. They were calling you out on not sticking around with your other baby daddy and being "relieved" that the relationshit was over.

You're also being called out on being a ho that's wanting to jump on some fresh cock meat immediately after breaking up with the man that you already have a child with.

soytuamigo · 2021-11-07T17:08:49+00:00

The thing is that what I want out of life is a happy family life. Like the one I have with my parents

The problem is that she didn't receive the same upbringing that her mother had. Back in her mother's day girls were raised to be mothers, not men with female bodies. Today is considered "sexist" to do the same. Most likely her mother didn't have her ability to pair bond impaired by riding the carousel all through her twenties either. The current zeitgeist has rendered her and others like her forever unable to have the family life they really wanted and that they would not have a problem achieving had they not been trained to be sluts from an early age.

MastermindX · 2021-11-07T21:29:52+00:00

This woman is about to find out that it would have been much easier to work on the "complications" of a relationship and fix them, than to run away and find a new partner who is already perfect, while you're much older and a single mother.

This is what the entitlement mentality has done to several generations of women. If your partner is not perfect in every single aspect, you must dump him immediately because you're perfect and deserve the best, and shouldn't possibly be expected to put any effort into making the relationship work. Good luck with that.

DP, DC - wtf does those mean?

throwthrowthrew · 2021-11-10T04:03:21+00:00

People need to know when to stop. The hustle culture is making us think we get to have everything everyone else can, even celebrities. That’s just not how it works for normal people. Imagine being willing to walk away from it all just because the relationship has some issues. Why didn’t you think of that before you had a kid with him? Why aren’t you willing to work it out for the welfare of your child? This is incredibly selfish. It’s all about her. So sad
