if y'all break up and the dude is not in his kids life he wasn't shit from the jump and you fell for his bullshit
A dude can already have a kid or two then some naive bitch thinking he'll be a good father if she had a kid with him and then look what happens. He's not in that kid's life. We know other men are stupid, ladies need to pay attention.
And if he doesn't have any kids how do you guarantee he will be in the child's life once you have his first? Such geniuses and Nostradomus like people on this site. While you are at it, tell me what I'm going to eat for dinner tonight?
You can't GUARANTEE. But you can see how important his family is to him. And how he handles other responsibilities in his life. And especially how he he handles those responsibilities when it may be very difficult. And you can look at whether or not his priorities in general are in order, especially financially. You can check his reaction when the subject of starting a family comes up. You can sit down start a conversation somehow about the possibility of the relationship not working out and what that would mean for baby. You can take into consideration how mature he is overall. And if he's vindictive and petty in other parts of his life or not. Etc etc etc.
I don't think anyone is saying that you can always tell 100% what type of parent a person will be. But shit, damn near. The problem with ALL of us - not just women - is that we get so caught up in 'love' and the fantasy of starting a family and blah blah blah that we ignore the signs and don't do the groundwork to really see if the person we're with is someone you should really be starting a family with.
More people need to take it look at the cold, hard facts instead of just moving based on emotion.
Would you disagree with anything I've said?
