So. A girl. You've been seeing her for a few months and it's all going great and all of a sudden she calls you up and she wants you to meet her for dinner. And you're like yeah sure.
Then, at dinner, she tells you that she's pregnant. It's your child. She then says you can choose. You marry me or I get an abortion.
What would you do?

I'll go first. Well I'd fucking marry her. It's the way I was raised and it's something I feel is my obligation. But I do understand people who choose to get an abortion. I ain't judging.

WTF LOL!!!! We need more context before we can help you bro

It ain't about me, geez, I didn't knock anybody up. It's just a question. It's simple.
If you knock up a girl, would you marry her or discuss abortion with her.

 

[Tesseract]

marry

our child will be the great conqueror of lore

 

[Master Of Illusion]

She better watch out for those stairs.

Spoiler

LOL nah she won't see it coming

 

[DESTROYA]

I come from a European country so for the most part I think we see abortion as not a good option.

 

[haxan7]

Depends if she’s hot or not

[Sejan]

This isn’t a binary choice. You could continue dating and raise a baby together. Put the baby up for adoption. If one of you wants to raise the baby and the other doesn’t, there are options there as well. Rushing to either marriage or abortion is taking a bad situation and making it worse.

 

[Papa]

Depends on the girl

 

[I_D]

Depends on readiness.
If I'm using the term "knocked up" to describe the situation, as opposed to "trying for a child," or something similar, chances are it'd be an abortion.

Wild and untamed.

 

[Breakage]

The phrase “knocked up” suggests carelessness.
I wouldn't have a child out of wedlock.

Depends on the girl

Let's say it's this one in your case.

 

[Fushitsusha]

Let's say it's this one in your case.

I would abort her.

 

[HotPocket69]

I’d tell her to hit up Dr. Vacuum

 

[#Phonepunk#]

marry her. i would love kids. a whole houseful. spread my seed and become a nation.

 

[Entroyp]

It’s probably not your kid.

 

[Elektro Demon 2.0]

I'd have to think real good. Caring for some else would mean I'd have to steal more packages off of people's porches. And it's getting tough with all the amazon lockers and damn dogs.

 

[Gargus]

I'd never marry her. Unless we both wanted to before the pregnancy and we had that kind of connection. Why be miserable by marrying her? Worst case scenario is you have to pay child support till its 18 and you're free and clear. Marry her and you'll financially be much much worse off.

Abort? It's not the man's place to abort or not abort. Once that baby is in her then it's her decision whether she keeps it or gets rid of it. Only two people involved in that scenario is her and her dr that will either treat her during the pregnancy or the doctor that will coat hanger that kid into the afterlife.

But dont think you ever have to "marry her because it's the right thing to do" she is equally to blame here, unless you raped her that is. She took part in the fucking just like you did.

Really though if she can have the right kill that little shitstain then you should have the right to abandon it and not pay anything.

Lesson is NEVER fuck a chic unless you wrap your rascle. No amount of fucking is worth the decade's of pain and torture to follow.

[Amory]

New gaf is better than crazy gaf, but only just

 

[Barnabot]

I'd choose to each one live their lives as single but still parents nonetheless. No need to sacrifice a unborn child just because you were too horny at the moment and not wanting to use a condom when you just wanted to bang someone.

 

[womfalcs3]

Let's say it's this one in your case.

Abort! Abort!

 

[TUROK]

Do I want to put my balls in a perpetual vice grip or keep being a free man?

That's a tough one.

 

[ExpandKong]

If it’s just those two options then marry. At least marriage doesn’t have to be permanent.

Let's say it's this one in your case.

Shit, fat doesn’t have to be permanent either that girl ain’t even that bad y’all hating.

 

[Mohonky]

Neither?

I knew a guy who had a situation like this, but since the women was under age (as he was), the court wouldn't compel her to take a pregnancy test.
So he got both of them on one of these shows (whatever the popular one was in the late 90s).
Then, after the show said it was his (he knew it wasn't), said his family wasn't going to help raise the kid at all to prompt her family to sue.
Her family gets in front of a judge, who's like "The fact that your only proof is a day-time tv paternity test that *flips through pages* is missing well over half the information it's legally required to doesn't really put me on your side of this".
Court ordered that the doctor administering the test should send in a full copy of the results, only for the show's lawyers to say "we admit that the results are played up for purposes of entertainment and are no replacement seeing an actual damn doctor, per the contract both parties signed".
Annoyed judge found in favor of my friend.

Are we talkin' a belly kick or ?

 

[Rival]

As bad as it sounds for me it might depend on how hot the girl is what I’d do.

Where's the "married + abortion" option?

I wanted my married filing jointly tax treatment minus the kids.

You can't force someone to abort unless you're a fucking psycho.

Whoever gets a woman pregnant without wanting it is a fucking moron anyway. Just wrap up the damn dong.

[Bigrx1]

LOL why are those the only two options?

 

[Azzurri]

Neither, Unless I actually love the girl then I'd marry her.

You can still knock a girl up and not abort or be a dead beat dad.

 

[TheStruggler]

Option C fuck her sister

 

[Ownage]

I knocked up my ex gf twice. We aborted twice. Decades later I regret it but we were not compatible, thus it was for the best.

 

[JareBear: Remastered]

I’d tell her, sorry babe. You’re gonna love being a single mother.

good luck trying to catch my ass for child support. I’m Keyser Soze. I’m gone like a fart in the wind.

 

[TheMan]

Well, I haven't been in this exact same situation, but I did marry a girl after getting her pregnant (hell, that thread earned me a tag back in the day). Can't say I'd be in favor of abortion in your situation, but 12 years later I kind of wish I hadn't gotten married.

 

[haxan7]

Option C fuck her sister

Fuck her and her sister at the same time.

[MaestroMike]

if ive been seeing her for a few months, then shes probably attractive in my book and I would help support the kid, but why marry after 3 months??? makes no sense, but i would help support the baby other than that i don't wanna abort no babies gotta man up and take responsibility

 

[JareBear: Remastered]

Slowly my triggering intensifies to immeasurable heights

 

[Kenpachii]

Knocking a girl up is the girls problem really not the guy no matter how people like to spin it. She could use the pill if she's sexually active if she doesn't she takes the risk and there you go.

It's her body her rules.. No double standards.

Because if she doesn't want the kid there is nothing that's going to stop her from removing it no matter what the guys thinks about it. So the guy honestly involvement with the decision is zero.

The people that state men up and serve is laughable at best. This only creates chicks getting pregnant on purpose because of dumbass statements like that. Because pay my bills you dead beat dad!!!!!. yea what about start to get a job yourself you dead beat mom.

Also marrying is nothing but a novelty party for people that just want to celebrate there x amount of time together. People using marriage to trap each other will just get divorced sooner or later.

I hope you steal a porch baby on accident one day.

Abort! Abort!
