However, when netizens probed further, they had a shocking revelation that he is the father of the baby, and she is his wife
Brace yourself, for today’s story is quite wild and takes an unexpected turn that nobody will see coming. It starts with this man who narrates that his pregnant roommate “K” is very excited to have the baby, but apparently, she is making it his problem. He complained about all the physical changes, like he had to throw away all the bananas, as she couldn’t stand the smell.
He’s annoyed that she helps out with the general chores less, and is very emotional and cranky most of the time. Moreover, he also had to clean up her vomit once, as she couldn’t make it to the bathroom, and puked on the floor. He also has to do the grocery runs even when she’s feeling fine, and when he asks her to do it, she brings up the pregnancy excuse.
The “good” lad has also been driving her to her appointments, and one day, he got sick of it all and just refused. When she kept pleading, he finally snapped and told her that her pregnancy was her responsibility and not his problem. She got upset by this—even cried—and stormed off. He said that he didn’t want to be her servant, so he vented online, asking netizens if he was wrong.
Naturally, they sided with him until the big reveal, for that is where the plot twisted—when he revealed that K was actually his wife! Despite being the father of the baby, he still thought that “her pregnancy [was] her responsibility.” People just couldn’t handle the fellow’s audacity to mislead them and then treat his own wife so terribly during a difficult time.

Pregnancy is quite a complicated phase for any woman who opts to go ahead with it. Of course, they face a lot of physical problems, but let’s not forget that they also have to endure mental health challenges as well. It’s only natural that she is going to be a bit cranky and not want to go grocery shopping when her whole body is fighting for two.
Besides, the fact that he misled people into believing that it was his roommate and not his wife is in itself hugely problematic. What kind of sane person would do that? He also sabotaged things further when he stated that her pregnancy was her responsibility, and many people claimed that he was chauvinistic for saying something so detrimental to his wife.
It has been observed that 88% of men strongly agree that a man has the same responsibilities as a woman for the children they have together. Sadly, there’s still that 12% who disagree with this, and the man in our story is definitely one of them. If he is so disrespectful right now, I can’t imagine what the poor woman might have to face when raising the toddler.
The story is a little old, and I really hope the woman realized how problematic her husband was and left him right then and there. People also said that they felt sorry for “her” child because who knows what the kid might have to face since its father is so twisted. What about you? Did the plot twist throw you off as well? Let us know in the comments!
Folks couldn't believe the man's audacity to mislead them by calling his wife a roommate, and they also lashed out for saying it was her responsibility and not his problem
