He Got A Girl Pregnant After A One-Night Stand, And Since She Doesn’t Want To Keep The Baby, He’s Thinking He Might Selfish For Wanting To Raise The Baby Alone
This 25-year-old guy went out to a club a couple of months ago, and the club was for people who were at least 21 or older.
He ended up meeting a girl that night, and he just assumed she was 21 since that was the minimum age requirement for someone to be in the club.
He ended up having a one-night stand with this girl, and after that, they went their separate ways.
He continued on with his life, but this month, she reached out to him on social media to say that she was 6 months pregnant with his child.
She also stated that she had a family lined up to adopt the baby, as she was not interested in being a mom, and she was only reaching out to inform him of the situation.
He doubted that he was really the father of her baby, but he was able to get a paternity test, and he got the results back a week ago.
It turns out that he is, in fact, the father of this baby.
“For the whole month, all that’s on my mind is this baby,” he explaned. “It’s a baby girl, and she’s due in September.”
“I know this might sound selfish, but I think I want this baby. I’m going to be completely transparent, because I want genuine advice…I get my income from being a software engineer and being a content creator. I live in NYC, nice complex but it gets really noisy (as expected). As for what I know about kids, I have to admit, I don’t have a big experience with them.”

“Relationships is a tricky concept right now. My best friend of 15 years and I have been in a situationship, but that’s another explanation (yes, she knows). My mom has been staying with me for 1 month. She’s supposed to leave in August, but says she’ll stay longer because she’s 100% up for me raising my daughter.”
He so wants this little girl, but he’s stuck on wanting to be a single dad being a decision that’s totally selfish.
Prior to now, the concept of having children has not even crossed his mind, let alone being a dad all alone.
Also, since this girl he had a one-night stand with has already found a stable home for this child, that gives him pause.
“I feel unprepared and like I’m ripping away my daughter from a stable family life with two loving parents,” he said.
“I know I’m rambling, but I’m seriously deadlocked. I have so many friends and family, but it’s difficult to really talk to people about this. Judging by the information I shared, what seems like the best decision?”
