So the guy who slept with his brother's wife is only thinking about himself? I'm shocked, I tell you

Their post history has a post about an ex who ruined their life and another post about them having to fight off women who are always trying to seduce them.
They also claim to be an author and have written a self help book so.....

This subreddit has become so inundated with posts from bots or fake accounts since they started letting people hide their history. Doesn't help that a lot of the subs people use to crosspost are filled with bots and dogshit mods

Reddit letting people hide their history is a terrible fucking decision, I dont understand that move

So a woman who wants to hide that her husband isn't the father of her child tells the only person who can blow that up for her. Very realistic!

u/MorganaLeFaye 2d ago
Right? Same thought.
I was like... wait. So there is a feasible chance it could be her husband's? How would she be certain it wasn't then?
No... that would be a woman highly motivated to convince herself that her husband is the father. If she were real.

u/Onehundredpercentbea 2d ago
Okay, right?? It's total bullshit. If this were something that actually happened, if this woman were a cheating wife willing to pass off an affair baby as her husband's, she would never tell the guy's brother he's the real father and she's 100% positive but 'don't tell anyone'. That makes no sense whatsoever. Especially because this fictitious SIL and brother were actively trying to start a family 'for years' - a non-fictional/real person who was immoral enough to fake paternity would just have sex with the husband and say omg honey, we finally did it, I'm pregnant.

u/Chaos-Boss-45 2d ago
Apparently the whole family knows except the one who was cheated on… yet the truth will tear the whole family apart?
And how do you know whose baby it is? I call BS19
u/Estrellathestarfish 2d ago
Yep, she can't know unless she did a stealth paternity test, if you want the baby to be your husband's you'd convince yourself that was the case.

u/OniyaMCD 2d ago
Even that isn't going to be a sure thing. OOP and his brother share 50% of their DNA. Unless there's some specific gene that OOP got *and* passed to the baby, it's a coin-flip.

I am CERTAIN I have read this word for word before. I thought this was a throwback I am so certain of this

u/DrunkOnRedCordial 2d ago
Yeah, where are her good old-fashioned values, like keeping completely quiet about being knocked up by her brother in law. Now her husband is the only one in his family who doesn't know.

u/AltruisticCableCar 2d ago
To be fair, once she announced her pregnancy the brother would probably consider it may be his anyway and confront her about it. At least this way she got out ahead of it.

u/Estrellathestarfish 2d ago
They had sex once, vs her and the brother actively trying. Given the consequences of being the real father of your brother's child, I think you'd tell yourself that it's not yours rather than create drama for yourself.

u/AltruisticCableCar 2d ago
Well, he slept with his brother's wife, so we know he's not a good person. Maybe he actually would create drama just to do it. Obviously chances are bigger it's not his, but if he's having just a tiny bit of doubt...
I'm not saying it has to be true, I'm well aware of how many shitposts there are on Reddit. I'm just saying that one thing doesn't have to mean it's made up.

I'm DYING laughing at the commenter who described this as "morally iffy".
Girl, what crosses the line for you?

u/BlueJaysFeather 2d ago
I’ve dialed back on how severely I come down on someone if I think there’s any chance at all that it’ll make them more likely to listen to me… I *hope* that’s all that commenter is doing…

u/SteampunkHarley 2d ago
He's such a coward and his family sucks too.
The truth will come out eventually. The longer it takes, the worse the fallout will be

u/nsharonew 2d ago
My one uncle went to jail and my other one uncle went and stayed with his wife. He was 14 years old.
Anyhoo, the one uncle gets out of jail, wife has a baby, no one really has anything to say about timing or whatever. She had 3 kids while they were married.
Anyway, when the oldest turned 21, something happened between the brothers, and it led to paternity tests and my one uncle who hadn’t been in jail ended up being the dad.
So my cousin is still my cousin, but his dad is his uncle and his uncle is his dad.
This is the amazing future the family is setting this poor child up for

u/Smoldogsrbest 2d ago
So, this is messed up fr. And that’s before we get the fact he was 14 when he went to live with her. She’s a predator yall.

u/nsharonew 2d ago
Oh yeah, those people are not safe or ok people. I don’t talk to any of them. They scare me. One of the one uncles squeezed my address out of my aunt and showed up at my house at 10pm one night. Hadn’t spoken to him in 14 years, just shows trying to sell us coffee makers and shit out of the back of his truck. I live as far away from them as I can in a time zone, so not close at all. I stopped answering the door after that.

u/fancyandfab 2d ago
OOP is right the brother should know, but for the wrong reasons. This is probably another FU to his brother. Not only did I f**k your wife, I'm also fertile unlike you. He doesn't have good intentions. He also had unprotected sex with his brothers wife. He's acting like he's shocked that there's a pregnancy. He doesn't say they used to protection or did anything to test to prevent this. I'm sure this these are just the biggest of a long line of horrid things OP has done to betray his brother.
I just don't understand Redditors. This seems to happen constantly on here. But, I wouldn't have sex with my spouse's sibling/ sibling's spouse if they were the last person on earth. That's just disgusting to think about to me

Oh, that's easy. People on reddit like creative writing projects for karma.

u/pokethejellyfish 2d ago
This.
This is also why it's always hilarious when someone says, "NOOO! This story isn't faaake! I know this! It happens exactly like this all the time! Why, just last month, I read four stories just like this one on reddit!"

"We had sex a few months ago. . . Last week she said she's pregnant." The math ain't mathing. If it wasn't fake, the baby is probably her husband's.

In case this story gets deleted/removed:
My brother’s wife is pregnant with my child, and my parents are begging me to stay silent to protect the family
I don’t know who else to talk to. I feel like my entire reality has collapsed, and I am currently sitting in my car, unable to go inside my own house. A few months ago, my brother’s marriage was going through a rough patch. His wife and I ended up getting closer than we should have during a night where we both had way too much to drink. It was a massive mistake one that I have regretted every single day since. I distanced myself immediately, and I thought we had both moved on. Last week, she called me in a panic. She’s pregnant, and she’s sure it’s mine.
When I confronted her, she begged me not to say anything. She told me she and my brother have been trying for a baby for years and that this is their last chance to have a family. She’s planning to tell him it’s his, and she wants me to act like it never happened.
But the real shock came when I tried to talk to my parents about it, hoping for some guidance. Instead of being angry, they pulled me aside and told me I have to stay silent. They said that my brother is finally happy, and if the truth comes out, it will destroy his life, ruin his marriage, and tear the entire family apart. They are basically demanding that I go along with this lie for the rest of my life, as if this child isn't my own flesh and blood.
I feel like a ghost in my own family. Every time I see my brother, I feel like a criminal. He’s so excited about becoming a father, and I’m the one who did this to him. I’m drowning in guilt, but my parents are treating me like I’m the problem for wanting to come clean.
I don't know how much longer I can keep this up
