Why in the hell do so many people think they can be in a committed relationship and fuck other people without creating jealousy, insecurity and resentment?

The vast majority of the time this shit never works out. Don't listen to people telling you how great open relationships are. They almost always end badly.

Be an adult and pick a partner who you like and are compatible with and stick with that person. If you start developing feelings for someone else then either cut that person out of your life if you are committed to your current partner, or end it with your current partner and go be with the new person.

You got your 12 year old drunk and had a shower with him? That's creepy as fuck dude, There's no excuse for that. And then made him clean up your mess afterwards? What's wrong with you? I just really hope for your son's sake that this situation wasn't as bad as you made it sound but somehow I doubt it. Fucking sick.

TBH—This wasn’t as bad as I was expecting based on the intro. Sounds like both of you have some issues to work out, and you both have a certain level of culpability in the situation. The whole hiring an escort was a major, major dick move, but other than that it doesn’t seem like he’s a psychopath (at least based strictly off his posting). Maybe insecure, jealous, confused, and very immature, but not exactly a psycho. The kid will complicate your life immensely, so I would recommend you both do some very serious soul searching and figure out if you want to put in the effort to make things work. Have an open and honest discussion about it. I wish you both the best of luck, hope you figure things out. Cheers.

Honestly? It just sounds like you guys created a messy situation for yourselves. You continued into a non monogamous relationship being the only one “fully” invested in going down that route and he intentionally deceived you as revenge.

You have a child on the way. Now isn’t the time to play “who got more Reddit downvotes”.

Move on and build a relationship on grounds that actually work for both of you or separate and commit to being the best parents you can be. Either way you’re about to have a responsibility to another human life.

Not a fu. You forced your Mom's hand in having her deal point blank with your dad's racism. I doubt he was born again and prob still is a racist but the fact that racism wouldn't be tolerated to that degree in his own house should make him aware.

Kudos to you for pushing it (even if ignorantly unaware) and your mom for doing what was right
