I (F20) met him (M20) through online dating. On the second date, he asked me to be his girlfriend. We went on roughly 6 dates over the course of 2-3 weeks. The thing is, I am too nervous to tell him about a kid I have previously in fear of losing him.
Every time past relationships are brought up in our conversations, I always switch the topic to relieve the pressure. Today, my bf found out about my kid through my relative’s social media account. He broke up with me and is obviously hurt. I think he was hurt because this was the first real relationship he ever had and he expressed that to me multiple times. He would always let me know how happy he was around me. Was I a Jerk waiting until the right time to tell him due to nervousness? Did I “lie” to him?
What would you do in her situation? Any advice. Here are a few comments on the story where it was originally posted:
