BM is so pissed and I can’t stop laughing

Background information pertaining to story – DH didn’t know he had a son until SS was about 5 years old. DH and BM dated when they were younger and she and her family later moved out of the state to WA, well I guess DH kept in contact with BM’s brother on and off, he decided to take a road trip and head to WA in the process, it was during that time that SS was conceived, I guess BM had been sleeping with more than one guy and so never told DH that she was pregnant (my guess is that she didn’t know who the dad was – so sad).

Five years later DH comes back up to WA to see his friend again and bumps into BM and SS. DH knew on the spot that SS was his. SS has his dark hair and bright blue eyes. It took him a month to convince BM to have a paternity test done (he believes that she knew DH was the SS’s father but had been milking another sap for child support and didn’t want to pay it back). Of course long story short DH is SS’s dad and he moves up to WA to be with his son.

So on to recent funny news…

On Friday night DH had to work late and wouldn’t be able to drop SS off for his weekend visitation with BM. I never drop SS off because BM hates me but I offered this time because I was already headed in that direction to go out with some girlfriends.

Well I drop SS off at the neutral location and am heading back to my car when BM calls me and comes walking up to me. She thanks me for dropping SS off and I tell her that it’s not a problem I was happy to do so. She than tells me that SS has told her that we are trying to get pregnant. Not any of her business but oh well, I tell her that yes we are. She than proceeds to say, “I’m surprised that DH wants ANOTHER kid he was never the fatherly type”, my response was “DH is so excited to have his first baby we aren’t even pregnant yet but it’s all he can talk about, I guess that’s normal with your first”. At this point she is staring at me with steam coming out of her ears, “SS is DH’s first child!”. “technically yes you are right SS is DH’s first child, however since you didn’t tell him about SS until he was 5 years old DH missed out on all of SS’s firsts so for DH our baby is the first time he will be a father of a child from day one, and I’ve never seen him so excited to do all the first time things, he’s even excited to change diapers, truth is I’ll be lucky if he ever lets me do anything with the baby.”

She was so pissed she was speechless (that is of course until she called DH right after I left, DH couldn’t stop laughing so she hung up on him.

question...what happened to the first guy that was paying cs for SS, the one that thought he was the dad? Does he still have a relationship with your SS? Or did he ever?

Just because you CAN give birth, doesn't mean you SHOULD

Absolutely perfect, Missangie!

Last week, I posted to someone that I always wished I could have a "Life Rewind" Button- for all those times you miss out on the perfect response to a situation and could go back only AFTER you thought of the perfect response to a situation or annoying person...

Looks like YOU didn't need one those in this case! That was just great Wink

The guy who thought SS was his bio son had almost nothing to do with him or his actual bio-daughter (SS's 1/2 sister). BM's got a total of 4 kids and each of them has a different father.

I think that voicing the idea that he is having his first baby seems insensitive to his son. I hope that SS doesn't ever hear this sentiment being expressed as it would be very hurtful to him. He did not choose not to know his father until he was five and should not be made to feel like less of his son because of his mother's poor choices.

I'm sure it felt great to put BM in her place, but I hope it was done without any chance of SS hearing it.

Even if it was done out of his earshot, you may want to consider, in future encounters, how good of an idea it is to get BM pissed at you about something like that when she is getting into a car with SS. She may tell SS what you said and even if you made the right choice to keep him from hearing it, he still can be hurt by it.

SS was not in ear shot and he also knows what his mother and father are like so I'm not worried about it She's got 4 kids with 4 different guys, has had drug issues, domestic violence issues etc... SS already knows his mom is a dead beat and that anything she says is almost never true so he never believes her about anything anyway so I'm not worried about what BM says.
