Just had to share this jem from one of my other support groups. Crazy can go both ways... if you read the comments it becomes more and more glaringly obvious by her responses.

You need to finish reading it. The MIL chimes in to post how the awful BM has turned the whole town against her boy.

This guy cheated on BM for YEARS with the SM and MIL knew about the affair. They are all acting like BM is the crazy one.

Wait, why do you think BM got pregnant to safeed the relationship? Based on what the SM and MIL posted, BM thought everything was fine.

It truly sounds like BM was blindsided by the cheating. Based on what they posted, BM is the only sane one in the group. She had enough self respect, self esteem, pride...to divorce her husband as soon as she discovered he was cheating. The ex and SM do not have two pennies to rub together, but BM has a great career. She has enough sense to stay clear the exMIL who knew about the cheating and threatened to snatched the kid and run to another country.

BM found out she was dealing with a basket full if nuts, and got the hell away from them.

All of that is based on the SMS version of events. I bet he never intended to end things. It's possible he was just keeping the SM as his side piece. Cheaters always lie about the status of their relationships.

Really, what man is going to tell his side piece he's in love with his girlfriend and is looking forward to marrying her?

Why cheat when you can simply have some self respect, man up, and break it off cleanly, then go off an be with someone else. It is super simple and really that easy.

And if he wasnt in love with the bm, already had a side piece, why keep having sex with the bm. I could NEVER be with an attached guy, knowing he is being intimate with another woman. That is just disgusting and I wouldn't want a guy like that.

It is ludicrous to think that the bm got pregnant to save that relationship. She didn't rape him and I am sure he didn't accidentally slip into her vagina and ejaculate in her.

A cheater. :? Plenty of college students have the love of their life at home and their side chick on campus.

Cheating on someone doesn't mean you don't love them and want out of the relationship. If the opportunity presents itself, some will take it.

If BM got pregnant to trap the creep, why did she divorce him as soon as she found out he was cheating? She didn't ignore it, forgive him, go to therapy....she got rid of him.

The fact that all of his friends and at least on family member has sided with BM, also leads me to believe that SM's version of the story isn't true. Heck, the MIL even posted about how great/sweet BM was prior to finding out about the cheating.

"I know we don't come across all that well when the situation is described in words, but there is so much more to it"

I finished it. Pure torture. The responses were pretty mild, would have been much harsher here.

They were college students. If you're on one campus, your boyfriend's on another, and the only time you're together is during school beaks, you have no idea what he's doing during the school year.

All I want to know, is how the BM "got herself pregnant". That is pretty impressive.

The whole post is ridiculous.
