A man has come clean about his secret plan to divorce his pregnant wife, after he says she ‘baby-trapped’ him.
The couple have been together for eight years and have two children together – a five-year-old girl and two-month-old boy.
He explained that whenever they had spoken about kids before, his wife had always told him she wanted two, even though he only wanted one, but he compromised after she said the child should have a sibling.
After having their son and years of sleepless nights with their son the dad said he didn’t want to go through it again.
So when his wife sat him down and told him “we have to have a third” he refused – and she accused him of ruining her dream of wanting a big family.
His wife confessed she had always wanted to have four children.
A few of days later she apologised and the couple had sex. The days says she was on birth control and he used a condom.
He came home from work one day while the kids were at their grandparents and found his wife dancing for joy while holding a positive pregnancy test.
He said: “My first thought was, ‘ oh s*** ‘”.
But, after she told him her plans of converting the office into a room for the baby he was “suspicious” because “everything was so well thought-out and it seemed like she’d been planning this for a while”.
So, when she was asleep he took the condoms out of the cupboard and ran them under water – and was horrified to discover holes.
He then managed to guess his wife’s new phone password – she’d never had one before – and found messages to her best friend complaining she couldn’t win him round on having another child.
Her friend then suggested she “arrange an accident” so the furious dad he woke his wife straight away and asked if it really was a “miracle”.
He said: “She got that deer-in-headlights look and burst into tears. “
He asked Reddit users: “What do I do? I don’t know if I should leave her over this. I don’t trust her anymore. She entirely betrayed it. I’m angry. But I have another child on the way.”
A month later the man posted an update to Reddit telling users he’s secretly planning a divorce.
He said: “Anyway, that brings us to today. I’m back on civil terms with my wife and I’ve started acting like everything’s okay between us.
“She’s happy. The kids are happy an excited for their new sibling. Everything’s going great except for the divorce being planned.
“I’ve got the evidence and I’ve got the lawyer and I’m preparing to present her with papers. I’ve talked to my lawyer about how it’s going to go because of quarantine, and where we are technology is being used.
