Not the asshole the slightest bit, and probably weird about leaving the kid but I'd do the same thing. No way could I be around a kid that I thought was mine and wound up being some random dudes kid. It would fuckin hurt but I don't blame the dude one bit and he's definitely not the asshole.

that's an ESH

i'd say if you're such a piece of shit that you'd abandon your child over blood after raising them for five years, you deserve whatever garbage happens to you, but i'll be fair and say that the wife is shitty for cheating to start with

the dude is not going down with raising another man's child

poor kid, though, his/her life is fucked for this, just because the mommy loved being fucked by many dudes

the moment you raise a kid for X number of years, blood relations cease to matter. you've long since committed to that. society doesn't work if men just decide "oh, i don't have any responsibilities here. it's not mine!" as if the work you put in can just be erased/forgotten

this is how you get fatherless homes/crimes/etc. If the woman was bad enough to cheat, you're still worse for not being a real man and committing to what you started. I'm not arguing he should stay married (she should be dumped to the curb) but the child you've raised is more important than anything in your life at that point. He obviously never loved his child and has no sense of social responsibility.

"alpha/beta" is irrelevant here because the real world doesn't function around a dichotomy, especially not long after the point where you've had a child

hopefully the courts force him to take responsibility. This is one aspect of society I tend to be fairly conservative on - if it was a baby that was recently born I could see his point of view, but by now, the child knows him as his dad. It's much too late to cut him off. The child matters more than his desire to be "free" of parental responsibility

It's a good litmus test to see whether or not you should be a parent. If you'd drop a kid after raising it for five years because of blood, you're fucked, don't have kids.

why should the man bother to raise the child born from the affair of his wife.
Raising another man's child doesn't make you a real man, actually just makes you a pathetic man. Real man raises his own child, not kid born from slutty mommy

If a "familial" relationship already exists, even DNA can't get you out of child support.

Those shows arn't courts. It's usually men wondering if they been cucked and using the "free" testing to confirm it.

yeah, I support a stable society where children aren't fatherless since fatherlessness is a major cause of mental instability and crime, and I think people bucking this are cowards and scumbags

but personal responsibility is "beta" now according to incel logic, okay, lol

It'd certainly be a terrible position to be in, and I would absolutely despise the woman that put us here.

There's no point in staying in the kids life for some sense of duty, that could just end even worse. If you stick around it's got to be because you really want to

It's painful but just looking at the kid would be a constant reminder of the betrayal it's better if we never see each other again.

a real man does not abandon children

So you're gonna spend every moment with that kid wondering who his dad even is and if the mom even knows, and wondering who all else the mom slept with. Fuck all that noise. I feel bad the kid would have to deal with a shitty hand but the fake dad has every right to dip.

That sounds very specific to you rather than a general thing for people. I don't mean this as an insult, but a proper father puts the kids he raises before all else. Should've never been involved with any kids, his by blood or otherwise, if he ever considered abandonment as even a conceivable possibility.

If it's not his child, it's not his personal responsibility. It's the responsibility of the actual father. What you're advocating for here is pushing off responsibility to other people to make up for the bad behavior of someone else.

You're full of shit, dude. If they don't want the kid to be raised fatherless, they should track down the actual father.
