Hey, anyone want to work with RC for the summer? This just came across my inbox... - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 26, 09:02
Ok...another hypothetical for ST: You're a dude and you had a vasectomy, let's say...7 years ago. Your wife comes home and tells you she's pregnant - Jim Feb 26, 08:57 34
- I think the automatic, and justified response, is to request a paternity test - Stephen Feb 26, 09:05
- That depends. Is she coming home from Vegas or the grocery store? - oblique Feb 26, 09:02
- I ask this because someone Carrie knows had this exact situation. Husband wanted a paternity test. As it turns out, his V had reversed itself and - Jim Feb 26, 09:01 19
  - I'm a scientist, so I'd be able to get over it if I were her. -- nm - nubby Feb 26, 09:05
  - doing the paternity test is the sigh of him not trusting her?????? - Danedukenuuk Feb 26, 09:04 1
    - Well...she didn't cheat on him. She told him the truth...and he didn't believe her. - Jim Feb 26, 09:05
  - Yes, because the not trusting here here is not without reasonable cause. It's virtually the equivalent of another chick coming in and saying she - pmb Feb 26, 09:04
  - He was dumb to get the paternity test before doing a payload test. Very dumb. - Beryllium Feb 26, 09:04 2
    - No...after the baby was born. -- nm - Jim Feb 26, 09:04 1
      - then he had months to do the payload test, and didn't -- nm - Roger More Feb 26, 09:05
  - I feel it was a necessary precaution. It's really a crazy scenario. -- nm - Mop (226 lbs) Feb 26, 09:03
  - *ding* Check your swimmers first privately, then go from there -- nm - oblique Feb 26, 09:03
  - I'd say it's a pretty reasonable reaction to a wtf moment. She shouldn't get hung up on it forever. IMO. -- nm - TFox Feb 26, 09:03 1
    - I agree - could have happened to us - I'd understand if he was WTF is going on? - Epiphany Feb 26, 09:07
  - This happened in a book I read once. But it was flowery fiction so the wife forgave him after he bought her a ton of stuff. - Diva Feb 26, 09:02
  - if the baby is his, he has to get over it. His mistrust is wrongly placed. -- nm - loosilu Feb 26, 09:02 5
    - I think he meant her hurt feelings that he didn't trust her is a problem. understandably so of course. though if I were the guy - sycor Feb 26, 09:03 1
      - I think the guy needs to apologize for the next ten years. -- nm - loosilu Feb 26, 09:03
    - Well obviously HE would be over it. It's his kid and his wife didn't cheat. Can SHE get over it is more the question here. -- nm - Jim Feb 26, 09:02
    - The question is can she get over it... -- nm - Guigue Feb 26, 09:02 1
      - oh!! I see. I have no idea. -- nm - loosilu Feb 26, 09:03
  - Nope. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 26, 09:02
- Tell her to pack her shit and get out. - JaxSean Feb 26, 09:00
- nod, and say "yep, that sounds like my testes alright." - TFox Feb 26, 08:58 3
  - I'm glad your family never met my sister, because she has Super Eggs. She'd have 20 kids by now. -- nm - loosilu Feb 26, 09:01
  - my sperm eat birth control pills like Smarties. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 26, 08:59 1
    - thets why they are packed in plastic and not groiny's sperm - Danedukenuuk Feb 26, 09:01
- immediate paternity test, as soon as possible, after I get my load checked.. -- nm - groiny Feb 26, 08:58
- sue the ass of the doctor obvie -- nm - Danedukenuuk Feb 26, 08:57 4
  - they state up front that they are not responsible for any oopsies. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 26, 08:58 3
    - "I'm afraid we accidently connected your testicles to your nose canal..." -- nm - Guigue Feb 26, 09:00
    - so it's america Sue the doctor anyway -- nm - Danedukenuuk Feb 26, 08:59 1
      - true, but I asked this very question when I was bare nutted on the table. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 26, 09:00
