Pregnancy From an Affair…an “Affairytale” With A Very Dark Side

Children really are a blessing. No matter where they came from, each one is precious and deserves the best start in life that they can get.

I honestly don’t see how someone could disagree with this. After all, no child ever asked to be born or chose the circumstances of their conception. They simply got carried along for the ride. They prosper or suffer at the whims of their parents. This is why I don’t understand why someone having an affair isn’t extremely cautious when it comes to using birth control.

Look, it’s bad enough to be sleeping with someone other than your spouse when you are married, or to be sleeping with a married person. To not use protection is inexcusable. Unless someone lives under a rock ( or has zero internet access), I’m pretty sure they know where “babies come from”, so they should know how to prevent a pregnancy from happening  that could lead a to a child been thrown in the middle of a nasty situation.

When I hear of an other woman lamenting the fact that she got pregnant, part of me really does wonder if it’s a “mistake’ made on purpose. After all, what better way to convince a married man who shows no signs of leaving his wife to do than being pregnant with his child?

In what possible way could this be considered a good idea?

If anything, it’s a terrible one. It’s likely to just tick the man off, as he will feel trapped. Mind you, he should have kept it in his pants, but by this time that horse has already left the barn and it’s too late to close the gate. he’s going to feel trapped, manipulated ( see above) and his back will go up. Meanwhile, the pregnant other woman will be left feeling even worse than she was before. Even having his baby isn’t enough for him!

When the new little one arrives, instead of having two happy and loving parents waiting, he or she will be born into conflict. While mom most likely loves him or her to death, there is dad, his wife and his family to consider. How will they handle it? Will the new dad rich to his other woman's side, or will it be a tense and anger filled relationship, on par with the most contentious of divorces?

A situation like this calls for the highest levels of maturity, which is something neither the married man or the other woman have been showing a lot of. In the end, the one who will suffer the most is the child.
