Wow (total agreement as to the questionable legitness of this story - but after watching Jerry Springer episodes whe I was in University dorm rooms, anything is possible).
I am torn. To me, the whole flowers jewlery thing is where it changes. He goes from being a generic dick which give the rest of us guys a bad name to being a GOD AMONG MEN.
Reasoning. The girl told him she was preggers BEFORE. Getting a little fun out of a situation in which many men have been screwed over since the beginning of time to me, yah its a dick move on his part but on the ######bag meter she is far higher up the evolutionary ladder.

Guess I'm gonna have to make girls inspect the condom when I'm done with it, just to make sure.

I can't believe that anyone who is suggesting that these wrongs are equal is a parent but it might be the case ... just my guess. Raising a kid that turns out not to be yours is not equal to being a dink to some girl.
I mean, maybe I'm not looking at this the right way, but they were consenting adults. She could have gone, "no, I will not have sex with you, you're a jerk, buh-bye". She was using that in her charade as much as he was using it in his.

I am in total agreement with you. Not to mention the girl was cheating on him and then lying about it. So what if the girl was desperate. That excuses ruining somebody's life because you can't account for your own actions?

Here's my question, and possibly why it made my "BS detector" go off.... why would a single guy just go out and get himself a vasectamy? The only remotely possible idea is the guy hates condoms so much that he'd rather get snipped than use one ever again, but then he ends up using them anyways.

Same reason why a lot of couples double up on condoms and birth control, it's just a lot safer.

I've thought about it before. At this point in my life, and as far as I can see, I won't want kids. There's always the option of freezing some just in case as well.

Moral of the story:
Women are evil and are still trying to 'trap' men therefore they shouldn't be trusted.
The moral of the story if you read between the lines:
This story is probably fake and the guy who wrote it is a huge misogynistic prick.

Both of them are scum. They both sleep around like crazy, then the guy not only encourages her to get an abortion, but he encourages her to get an abortion of a child that he knows is not his. Then he makes a mockery of long-term commitment in a relationship and leaves her to cry.
This is moral limbo- how low can you go?

The guy writing this 'story' comes off way worse to me than the woman. He had the opportunity to do the honorable thing and just tell her that the baby wasn't his. He supposes that the woman knew all along that the baby wasn't his but in reality he had no clue what she was thinking.
He saw an opportunity to be mean and spiteful toward her and jumped on it. Even if she was trying to entrap him, that does not give him the moral authority to be a huge ass hole.
Take note guys, this is the type of behaviour that gives us a bad name.

Apologies if someone else posted this (I got here late) but there was a thread on this at Snopes: http://message.snopes.com/showthread.php?t=15290
Doesn't look like it's been officially debunked yet.

so having to pay for a child who isnt yours, and possibly getting trapped into a marriage to a woman is not faithful and will probably not become faithful too you is not life ruining? you and i differ there

Well ruin may not be the correct word choice, but drastically change.
I'm currently a student, if I got someone pregnant, I doubt I would be able to stay in school. Would that "ruin" my life, no. But it is something that I don't want to happen and would probably change the outcome of my life to the negative.

My hunch is the guy got some girl pregnant that he didn't really like and ended up married to her. This is his dream scenario that he plays out over the web. He's so much cooler online.

it could be, but not because raising a child in and of itself is ruining. even one that wasnt produced from your own DNA. people do it all the time.

I wouldn't go that far. Bottom line: she cheated on him, by the sounds of it after some rock show with a member of the band, classy(if this is in fact true). And then on top of all that, tried to trick him into thinking its his and making him marry her and raise it. That's absolutely horrible. I could never take it as far as he did, he's obviously an ass himself. But IMO she's definitely got him beat.
On a side note, my dad once told me of quite the story that his buddy did about 20-25 years back. I guess his buddy was getting married, but two weeks before the wedding, he walked in on his fiance and his best man bumpin uglies. They never noticed him, and he quietly left. So fastforward to the wedding day. They go to the church and do the vows and all that stuff, everything's good.
Then they go to the ceremony, and when its the groom's time to talk, he gets up. He thanks everyone for coming and all that jazz, and then goes into how he discovered two weeks ago that his bride and best man were gettin it on(to which his bride breaks down in tears). He then says that unfortunately he has to leave now, walks out the door(despite the pleas of his best man), and heads to the bar. Can you imagine that story at the bar, with his tux on and everything?? I'm sure he got some sympathy lovin that night. I thought that story was absolutely classic!

i agree with that, if you and your partner adopt or something to that effect then fantastic. The problem here would be getting married to someone who lies and shows you no respect. That is going to lead to disaster down the road which would most likely ruin your life.
