Sticky Situation

I hear a lot of things here and there, some I choose to dig deeper into and some I don't. I can pretty much distinguish bullsh*t from something that could potentially be true or have at least 60% truth to it. So when I heard this certain tidbit of information, I never discounted it but I wasn't particularly worried until......

I was on Twitter. I received a direct message and I was not near my computer and had no plans of getting on until that message came to my cell phone. I read it and for a minute (literally), I could do nothing else. This message is the reason why I try to stay away from social networking sites like Twitter, Myspace, Facebook, etc. Way too much going on and the tripped out part behind it is that I don't have any affiliation with these people -- at all. On the same token, this message has me thinking about some real life "what would you do" stuff.

In a nutshell, the message was about a man cheating last year, girl ended up pregnant. Her, being the jacked up individual she is, started talking about what she would and wouldn't do. My mind went to the Eddie Curry situation and how his son's mother was killed along with her infant daughter and he was taking the child in. I'm a loving person and I have a very soft spot in my heart for kids but how do you accept a child into your house who is a result of an affair??

After a lot of texting back and forth, talking about what we would and wouldn't do, I decided that there is no "right" thing to do in this situation. You get a raw deal either way it goes. You accept this child into your home, treat them as your own but there'll always be some dispair. Or if you don't accept this child into your life because they are a part of your guy, you're seen as the villan -- a selfish brat who is blaming the baby for the mistakes that were made in the past. I made a statement though that probably ruffled every single feather she had! When I told her that I would accept the child but not into my house, she almost went off the deep end on me. But the way I see it, it's my house and I don't have to "welcome" anyone -- man, woman, boy or girl -- into my home if I don't want to. Not saying don't stand up and handle yours but I'm saying I don't have to deal with it. If I choose to still be with you (and those are slim to NONE), we'll have to work something out but until I'm completely healed, I don't want it to go down. I guess that's the bitch in me. She turned it around and asked the "what if it were you?" question and I can honestly respond to that with a simple answer: I wouldn't be surprised if the wife/wifey/fiance felt like that. It's understandable!!

See what Twitter does!!! LOL
