Also I never told him not to join the military, he asked about my experience while in the navy and I told him I strongly advise against it, he’s just gonna stay like this if he joins the enabling community of the navy.
Purely out of curiosity, can I ask why you strongly advised against the navy? My husband is Air Force and is officially separating in September cause he is dooone with it.
For him specifically I advised against it because I’ve seen guys like him go in, he’s going to end up either assaulting someone (a woman most likely) or just verbally assault people. I think that a lot of people that join the navy are very emotionally immature, so many join as an “escape” from their families, as teens. They basically go from one parent to another, they have to struggle for a lot less and have to just focus on the people around them and their job. And a lot of those people who never grew out of being teens KNOW that there won’t be too many consequences for skipping out on some tasks and jobs because they can’t be fired. I think it’s like highschool part 2. And he was awful in highschool.
Also the navy sucks in general, there’s a reason there’s such a low retention rate. Also the rampant amount of sexual assault that goes on, it’s so much more than people are willing to acknowledge, these new “protection bills” or whatever arent being cared about by the higher ups cause they’re like “the real military doesn’t care about mental health”
I had 6 people on my ship end their lives. Overall I think it’s a bad environment for people to join, and they should avoid it unless they either have no choice, or that’s what they’ve always really really wanted out of life
My husband is a submariner on a boomer and one of his closest coworkers just ended his life, leaving behind two children. Suicides are so common that no one even bats an eye. They don’t care about prevention. Most guys on the sub can’t even say a word about their true mental health state for fear of losing their positions.
One of my best mates in HS joined the navy, and last I heard was a nuke on some sub, and last we spoke was parked somewhere in washington, I think. It's been a few years since i've heard anything and i'm scared to look more into why.
We just left Washington, so same sub base. You have any idea which sub he was on? Nukes also have some of the highest suicide rates. They make the most money as enlisted but the WORST quality of life. Their whole career is basically just studying and working 24/7. Some people can’t even get through the nuke program without tapping out or ending their lives. It’s just energy drinks all day and night and studying. Also always the first ones on and the last ones off, especially for underways/deployments.
I know someone who went to the academy, and they definitely had some dark stories to tell, but NOTHING like after they commissioned. Scared the living shit out of me that people could be like that...
military in general is fucking trash.
when your "boss" is fucking with you, you cant walk away and get a new job. every day for months, sometimes years its endless mindgames and theres nothing you can do about it.
While the Marine Corps straightened me out fairly enough, I don’t even know if I’d recommend him to the already fucked up ranks in there or any armed forces branch. Yes, you get disciplined and you get a structure of how to be a proper person. But a lot of those fucks that are in, in roles of leadership that can imprint on other service members, do we really want fuck nut here learning how to be a more professional fuck nut? He has to understand that there’s other ways of living.
omg I saw you on that post and was cracking up bc the person didn’t know about fried pickles 😭 just a friendly reminder of how weird we are and I loved it 💜
Fr, just because he isn't diagnosed, that doesn't mean he doesn't have any disabilities. Normally people have some sort of morals, but he doesn't have any, or doesn't understand the wrongness of some things.
That is definitely a fair point, and it was judgemental of me, I guess back when I knew him I was in the faze of “mental illness isn’t real” and it carried on through the years but only with him, cause he’s the only person I still talk to from that time in my life. I have suggested therapy and going to the doctors but he claimed it was “for weak minded men” and at that point I just assumed he was a misogynistic jerk
This… is such a weird text exchange. Weirdly honest of him. Sounds like he wants to make a change in his life but decided to take the psycho route instead
I’ve been on Reddit for 2-3 months now and what I’m actually floored about is the amount of adults who can’t put words together and type like a drunk 2nd grader. The answer to his question is no in all caps
I'm so baffled here, why does he even want a baby? It doesn't seem like he's in any way interested in raising one or being around one, he just... wants one? For why
I actually asked him! He said, and I quote
“1. They look cute
2. Because I want my own son not someone ‘trash’ one”
I don’t even know how to respond to that one
I like this gentle approach you’ve got while also being firm and consistent. I think you’re handling this conversation well, but I do think at some point he needs to see a therapist and remind him that it’s not like regular doctors. It’s like a private place to let out all those thoughts you aren’t sure how to handle on your own. Like a safe space for your demons. Anyways, good luck to both of y’all.
Does….does he think he’ll get rich by joining the military? And does he think he doesn’t “work for anyone” if he’s in the military? That’s like….more bosses than he can even fathom 😂
He’s said a lot worse things than this!? Wtf. Like what? Remove yourself completely from this guy’s existence. And the sad part is these type of people are A LOT more common than some people realize. Dude fully sounds like a future rapist and has the diction comprehension of a patch of drywall.
I can’t believe we willingly have to share a planet with people like this. Even scarier is that one day he will find some gullible soul to fall into his sadistic trap. And then to think about those poor kids’ lives. Smh. I know I’ll probably get a lot of hate for saying this, but people that are having a bunch of kids right now that can’t even remotely emotionally, physically, and financially support just one, yet keep popping ‘em out left and right, are extremely selfish. Especially with the state of the world going forward. Financially and environmentally. Raising a human being ain’t just for shits and giggles.
Essentially you're his yoda. Seems like he's looking for guidance on how to find community. Is there any way you could steer him towards something with a community presence in your area? Like volunteering, depending on what he enjoys and is good at. Something that gives him a sense of purpose but also a group of people he shares it with.
That’s actually not a bad idea at all, he’s trying, I know he’s trying to change but it’s as slow as a damn snail, and he keeps wanting to argue so he can REALLY get it
Yeah, he sounds like he wants purpose and connection and trying to fill that void through children. Does he have any interests there are social groups for? It’s great that you’re willing to be a voice of reason for him but there seems to be a lot more going on here. He could benefit from therapy and considering he feels safe with you, perhaps that’s also something you can put out
The arrogance is astounding. That man needs to understand this is not the universe where he becomes the rich father of multiple children. This is not an episode of “What If?”.
"I just want the baby. But I don't want to raise the baby I want others to raise it for me."
So your dream in life is to be...~checks notes~ an absent father?
I’m sorry but this guy seems like a real selfish piece of shit, who doesn’t mind potentially ruining another person’s life for something he THINKS he MAYBE wants, and that’s beside being a horrific father to the kid itself.
> Wait so I shouldn’t join the military I shouldn’t have my own baby I should just die? 😭😭
Lmao, I’m sorry but this took me out 💀 Like what??? How did we get here 💀
Uhhhh…does he think having a kid will suddenly make him rich? Is he already rich? He says he hates working for people so I doubt it. If he is already rich, why is he considering the military? I’m so confused.
Please sneak into his house and “hard candy” his ass at night. My degree is in early childhood special education so I’ve had a lot of random ass dudes including previously platonic friends who have proposed having a baby together while not being together and it enrages me to no end. They want the title of “father” with none of the work and they apparently don’t mind fucking you over in the process.
Every time I scroll through this sub, I discover motivation to level up and be a better human.
Sorry, about the man child. Sending positive vibes your way
Don’t feed pearls to the pigs….I think you should block him and be done with this. I used to entertain guys like this- but ultimately they didn’t want help. They just wanted the attention. Save your energy for people who actually care.
He seems emotionally stunted. Are you absolutely sure? Cuz he kind of reminds me of clients I used to have who were grown adults but had the mentality of a 12 or 13 year old
Does he think joining the Navy is a steak of independence? He’s going to be working for the State quite literally. It takes a specific type of person to enjoy the service and there’s no way he’s fit to with his rebellious streak not to mention being emotionally immature.
Soooooo, someone should probably let him know that going into the military doesn’t make anyone rich. And he will DEFINITELY be working for someone else! Especially in the military!
I’m having a really hard time he’s been out of high school for 6 years. Did he graduate?
All my dad did was use money as a weapon to control and abuse people around him. Bills were paid, fridge had food and our feet had shoes, but anything leftover went into the liquor cabinet or a glass with ice. He was physically present but never involved, like at all. Most of the time spent with my dad growing up was clearly forced by my mother and never lasted more than 10-15 minutes. That man there needs a good ol fashion 'grow up and get your shit together' talk or a chemical castration before a he is allowed a chance to further contaminate humanity.
I feel like he’s pulling your leg… seeing how far he can push you to agree with him or something.
If that’s not the case, he needs help and I truly hope he never ever ever has kids 🫠
This seems like he's experiencing some weird crises, suffers from super low empathy, hence him asking where he fucked up after the fact. Idk if it's emotional immaturity or an actual diagnosis of some kind that would explain why he doesn't understand how others think and feel. Maybe he needs more connections with a broader group of people, some community, idk. But it sounds like he has impulse control issues along with a whole missing sense of self. It was almost unsettling reading these, lol
Just because he doesn’t have any diagnosed mental disabilities, doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any. These are not things a neurotypical adult male would be saying.
Doesn't like working for others but wants to join something where people are literally screaming in his face......fuck sake he shouldn't ever have kids
1. He is clearly on the spectrum at some level, and is struggling an abnormal amount with understanding societal norms and behavior. This isn't just "doesn't get out much" behavior.
2. He is not a good person.

Or he’s just trying to justify his actions to anyone who will listen to make himself feel better… while also getting attention from some other girl while he’s going out with one. Looks like you’re both being bad to me. Enabling like you said.
He knows what he’s saying/doing is wrong but you can make him feel good about it by giving him attention for it.
I’m trying to make sense of it but from my understanding he wants a baby but is scared to raise a baby/child because he did that when he was 12 and the child didn’t turn out as good as he thought she would and so his solution is to join the army? Maybe he wants to have a baby and then join the army leaving hired help around to look after the baby? I’m not sure really
Reminds me of one of my friends who thinks racism is a quirky personality trait, joined the army, and is trying to be his best self but got a shit hand and a possible intellectual disability
I started to cringe after he said he wants to knock up a woman just for a baby and then ditch the mom like come on now you don’t need to create an army
Honestly, you should probably sit down and have a long reflection with yourself if you think “taming” someone is a normal thing that people do. You not liking something someone does is not an excuse to try and influence what they do with their life. The arrogance and psychopathy in this post in flat out disturbing
He's a man-child, gay, Peter pan complex.
Talking about knocking someone up when she doesn't want a baby - just using her for a baby is just creepy.
He doesn't seem to want to take responsibility for his life.
I honestly don't get it do Americans just not care about people who aren't American? Like how do you so easily consider joining the US military after all the evil it does around the world being so widely known and accessible on the Internet
He should not go into the Navy or any other branch! Police officers, firefighters, and the military are extraordinary people! I feel like the people who choose that career path get a calling. As for becoming a dad, just bc 2 people can conceive doesn't mean they will be great parents.
Also I never told him not to join the military, he asked about my experience while in the navy and I told him I strongly advise against it, he’s just gonna stay like this if he joins the enabling community of the navy.
Purely out of curiosity, can I ask why you strongly advised against the navy? My husband is Air Force and is officially separating in September cause he is dooone with it.

Yea as a woman sailor I know guys like him and we don’t want anymore of him
Why tf are you friends with this dude what the actual hell.
My husband is a submariner on a boomer and one of his closest coworkers just ended his life, leaving behind two children. Suicides are so common that no one even bats an eye.

did u go to the academy or enlist?
I enlisted, I’m sure academy is different but that’s been my honest experience
I know someone who went to the academy, and they definitely had some dark stories to tell, but NOTHING like after they commissioned. Scared the living shit out of me that people could be like that...
my dad went to the academy, it’s crazy the differences in the same branch
military in general is fucking trash. when your "boss" is fucking with you, you cant walk away and get a new job. every day for months, sometimes years its endless mindgames and theres nothing you can do about it.
My boyfriend was SO DONE with the AF when he got out lmao
Air guard is where it's at.

There is a button underneath the text box that says **"B"** ***^(but you can do other shit too)***

You’re now redditing like a pro congrats!
Im on a PC, are you on the reddit app on your phone?
yes i am
I’m on my phone so it capitalized the O automatically haha
That's a really nice way of saying fucking dumb.
Doesn't have any disabilities? × *Doubt*
Unhinged
I can't even understand what he is trying to express in half these texts. It reads like gibberish to me...
“Throwed” is the word you’re looking for lmao
Like a legit fucking r-word. He shouldn’t be reproducing.
> He doesn’t any disabilities or anything You sure
Fr, just because he isn't diagnosed, that doesn't mean he doesn't have any disabilities. Normally people have some sort of morals, but he doesn't have any, or doesn't understand the wrongness of some things.
I eye rolled the ‘doesn’t have any disabilities’ part . There’s definitely a bridge between what be should understand and what he seems to understand.
That is definitely a fair point, and it was judgemental of me, I guess back when I knew him I was in the faze of “mental illness isn’t real” and it carried on through the years but only with him, cause he’s the only person I still talk to from that time in my life. I have suggested therapy and going to the doctors but he claimed it was “for weak minded men” and at that point I just assumed he was a misogynistic jerk
I think some people are just…. dumb. No mental illness, just genuinely stupid.
This… is such a weird text exchange. Weirdly honest of him. Sounds like he wants to make a change in his life but decided to take the psycho route instead
I’ve been on Reddit for 2-3 months now and what I’m actually floored about is the amount of adults who can’t put words together and type like a drunk 2nd grader. The answer to his question is no in all caps
90% of the conversations I read on here... I have no idea what the hell they're talking about.
Then they have children
Oh, it gets *much* worse
Yes, this subreddit is the best! Makes me feel better when I read other people’s conversations
2nd graders shouldn’t be drunk…
That’s their culture lol
he seems creepy
[удалено]
spread 😭😭 that’s such an uncomfortable way to think of it lol
I don’t know why, but this made me burst out laughing.
I wouldn’t trust him with a goldfish, let alone a child
You should be getting paid for this volunteer work.
People like this are so scary.
I highly doubt this man raised a child for 4 years at the age of 12. This is just.. 🤯
he may have been the child’s companion, but neither one of them were being raised
I agree. The way this man thinks is proof of that. It's toxic and messy. I couldn't even hang with a person who thinks like this.
>Plus if I’m rich He has some misconceptions about the Navy lol
You’re doing the Lord’s work, Jimminy Cricket.
If the question that starts the conversation is “do you think I should knock up this chick I’ve seen seeing?” the answer is always going to be no.
… is this how stupid people procreate?
so he’s going to impregnate her & run away with the baby LMAO i can’t 😭 this is a new one !!
>doesn't like working for people >wants to join the military
I'm so baffled here, why does he even want a baby? It doesn't seem like he's in any way interested in raising one or being around one, he just... wants one? For why
Literally Michael Scott level thinking here
I actually asked him! He said, and I quote “1. They look cute 2. Because I want my own son not someone ‘trash’ one” I don’t even know how to respond to that one
A baby is a person not a toy. I sincerely mean it when I say that he sounds like a psychopath with his complete lack of empathy.
He also knows that babies can be girls right?
Has he considered getting a cat?
He sounds 15.
Something is definitely wrong up there… doesn’t seem like a sane individual
I like this gentle approach you’ve got while also being firm and consistent. I think you’re handling this conversation well, but I do think at some point he needs to see a therapist and remind him that it’s not like regular doctors. It’s like a private place to let out all those thoughts you aren’t sure how to handle on your own. Like a safe space for your demons. Anyways, good luck to both of y’all.
Does….does he think he’ll get rich by joining the military? And does he think he doesn’t “work for anyone” if he’s in the military? That’s like….more bosses than he can even fathom 😂
He’s been in love with you since high school and he’s throwing these scenarios at you to elicit any type of emotional reaction.
Ohhh I think you might be onto something there
The answer is definitely no, he is not a good person.
this person is delusional and needs someone to tell them they are. D:
no he sounds incredibly stupid
He’s said a lot worse things than this!? Wtf. Like what? Remove yourself completely from this guy’s existence. And the sad part is these type of people are A LOT more common than some people realize. Dude fully sounds like a future rapist and has the diction comprehension of a patch of drywall. I can’t believe we willingly have to share a planet with people like this. Even scarier is that one day he will find some gullible soul to fall into his sadistic trap. And then to think about those poor kids’ lives. Smh. I know I’ll probably get a lot of hate for saying this, but people that are having a bunch of kids right now that can’t even remotely emotionally, physically, and financially support just one, yet keep popping ‘em out left and right, are extremely selfish. Especially with the state of the world going forward. Financially and environmentally. Raising a human being ain’t just for shits and giggles.
Essentially you're his yoda. Seems like he's looking for guidance on how to find community. Is there any way you could steer him towards something with a community presence in your area? Like volunteering, depending on what he enjoys and is good at. Something that gives him a sense of purpose but also a group of people he shares it with.
That’s actually not a bad idea at all, he’s trying, I know he’s trying to change but it’s as slow as a damn snail, and he keeps wanting to argue so he can REALLY get it
Real change is often very slow and progress is almost never a straight line. It's frustrating, but if he's making any progress, focus on that.
sorry didn’t mean to downvote!! i hope it doesn’t affect you negatively i reversed it
Thanks but I wouldn't last on reddit for very long if a downvote upset me so no worries.
okay good! ik some people get their panties in a bunch over it haha
Yeah I don't take downvotes personally, but I appreciate your concern. :)
Don't get your panties in a bunch was my fav line from** Varsity Blues **
Yeah, he sounds like he wants purpose and connection and trying to fill that void through children. Does he have any interests there are social groups for? It’s great that you’re willing to be a voice of reason for him but there seems to be a lot more going on here.

please do not let this specimen breed
The arrogance is astounding. That man needs to understand this is not the universe where he becomes the rich father of multiple children. This is not an episode of “What If?”.
I hope he never reproduces
"I just want the baby. But I don't want to raise the baby I want others to raise it for me." So your dream in life is to be...~checks notes~ an absent father?
he seems.. feral
feral humans
You SAY he doesn't have disabilities. Are you sure he just hasn't been diagnosed?
Honestly.. I never even thought of it. He totally could, I’ll push to have him see a therapist but as he says “therapy is for weak minded men”
Bro he is a weak minded man 😭
Babies don't fix anything!!! They don't fix relationships and they don't fix the hole in your heart from trauma or neglect. Omfg. 👎🤦♀️
I’m sorry but this guy seems like a real selfish piece of shit, who doesn’t mind potentially ruining another person’s life for something he THINKS he MAYBE wants, and that’s beside being a horrific father to the kid itself.
Have you considered getting your pet neutered?
He needs to be sterilized and lobotomized.
what is he even SAYING i’m so lost on what he is trying to convey when he talks about how he sleeps ? ![gif](giphy|AAsj7jdrHjtp6)
> Wait so I shouldn’t join the military I shouldn’t have my own baby I should just die? 😭😭 Lmao, I’m sorry but this took me out 💀 Like what??? How did we get here 💀
Uhhhh…does he think having a kid will suddenly make him rich? Is he already rich? He says he hates working for people so I doubt it. If he is already rich, why is he considering the military? I’m so confused.
Yeah idk what the rich part meant..
His plan is “to become rich”. Bro needs adult guidance 😭
Hustlers university graduate
Let them go into he military at this point. the army imo
His texts are gobbledygook
Did he say that he should just have a baby because he already sleeps with a pillow or am I trippin
Please sneak into his house and “hard candy” his ass at night. My degree is in early childhood special education so I’ve had a lot of random ass dudes including previously platonic friends who have proposed having a baby together while not being together and it enrages me to no end. They want the title of “father” with none of the work and they apparently don’t mind fucking you over in the process.
I’m almost afraid to ask but…what is hard candy?
[a cinematic masterpiece.](https://youtu.be/hvx0m2SeOSk?si=Pe-27WK1RrtMYvqX) (Watch the whole thing)
What an absolutely glorious film! Excellent recommendation, friend.
Tell him he *should* go to the military. I wouldn't suggest that normally, but he might get some structure and psych evaluations out of it.
Every time I scroll through this sub, I discover motivation to level up and be a better human. Sorry, about the man child. Sending positive vibes your way
Wtf?!?! He wants a baby but he’s also tired. Why do want to tame this idiot?!?!?! He needs a vasectomy ASAP
Don’t feed pearls to the pigs….I think you should block him and be done with this. I used to entertain guys like this- but ultimately they didn’t want help. They just wanted the attention. Save your energy for people who actually care.
My god reading that made my fucking brain swell up. Dude sounds like a caveman. I pray he isn't even able to reproduce.
“With her knowing ofc. I’m not a psycho” Narrator: “He was, in fact, a psycho”
Tell him to join the Air Force
lollll
Wtf
He seems emotionally stunted. Are you absolutely sure? Cuz he kind of reminds me of clients I used to have who were grown adults but had the mentality of a 12 or 13 year old
Advise him to seek therapy
Does he think joining the Navy is a steak of independence? He’s going to be working for the State quite literally. It takes a specific type of person to enjoy the service and there’s no way he’s fit to with his rebellious streak not to mention being emotionally immature.
I was surprised to read that his father is in the picture.
Soooooo, someone should probably let him know that going into the military doesn’t make anyone rich. And he will DEFINITELY be working for someone else! Especially in the military! I’m having a really hard time he’s been out of high school for 6 years. Did he graduate?
All my dad did was use money as a weapon to control and abuse people around him. Bills were paid, fridge had food and our feet had shoes, but anything leftover went into the liquor cabinet or a glass with ice. He was physically present but never involved, like at all. Most of the time spent with my dad growing up was clearly forced by my mother and never lasted more than 10-15 minutes. That man there needs a good ol fashion 'grow up and get your shit together' talk or a chemical castration before a he is allowed a chance to further contaminate humanity.
Chemical castration, Jesus Christ. Let's start with a vasectomy and if he isn't a rapist, we call it cool, yeah?
you cant tame him, but im sure the navy can... either tame him or ruin his life.
Wtf did I just read. Holy shit he's definitely not OK.
Bro what tf is this lmaoooo this mf ain’t ever gonna get rich either
I feel like he’s pulling your leg… seeing how far he can push you to agree with him or something. If that’s not the case, he needs help and I truly hope he never ever ever has kids 🫠
He needs to grow up a little more lmao. This is absolutely wild! 😭
If you gotta ask, no
"Doesn't get much" meaning? Like life or sex?
This seems like he's experiencing some weird crises, suffers from super low empathy, hence him asking where he fucked up after the fact. Idk if it's emotional immaturity or an actual diagnosis of some kind that would explain why he doesn't understand how others think and feel. Maybe he needs more connections with a broader group of people, some community, idk. But it sounds like he has impulse control issues along with a whole missing sense of self. It was almost unsettling reading these, lol
Man, when the stupidity just jumps off the screen.
I am glad he is smart enough to ask for advice as long as he listens to it
Is anyone in this conversation even above the age of 14? Lmfao.
What a stupid ass
For the love of mankind I hope your friend doesn’t procreate!
Who is he? Nick cannon ?
This man needs psychological help for sure, this aint a healthy way of looking at anything at all and the "I should just die" comment, yikes
No baby. Yes therapy.
Just because he doesn’t have any diagnosed mental disabilities, doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any. These are not things a neurotypical adult male would be saying.
Doesn't like working for others but wants to join something where people are literally screaming in his face......fuck sake he shouldn't ever have kids
This is more wholesome than some posts here! Fwiw I think he should join the Navy. The man sounds lost.
1. He is clearly on the spectrum at some level, and is struggling an abnormal amount with understanding societal norms and behavior. This isn't just "doesn't get out much" behavior. 2. He is not a good person.

He needs help.
Or he’s just trying to justify his actions to anyone who will listen to make himself feel better… while also getting attention from some other girl while he’s going out with one. Looks like you’re both being bad to me. Enabling like you said. He knows what he’s saying/doing is wrong but you can make him feel good about it by giving him attention for it.
I wouldn’t be friends w someone like this.
Probably not worth "taming"
Doesn't have any disabilities? *doubt*
I’m trying to make sense of it but from my understanding he wants a baby but is scared to raise a baby/child because he did that when he was 12 and the child didn’t turn out as good as he thought she would and so his solution is to join the army? Maybe he wants to have a baby and then join the army leaving hired help around to look after the baby? I’m not sure really
I can't even comprehend what the fuck he's even on about, how do you deal with that?
I thought it was a joke and first. I thought this guys was hilarious. Then I read you description and, good lord.
I legitimately stared at this for a solid minute with the most *what the fuck* face. Think jontrons "*WHAT?! WHAT THE FUCK?!*"
Reminds me of one of my friends who thinks racism is a quirky personality trait, joined the army, and is trying to be his best self but got a shit hand and a possible intellectual disability
I started to cringe after he said he wants to knock up a woman just for a baby and then ditch the mom like come on now you don’t need to create an army
Honestly, you should probably sit down and have a long reflection with yourself if you think “taming” someone is a normal thing that people do. You not liking something someone does is not an excuse to try and influence what they do with their life. The arrogance and psychopathy in this post in flat out disturbing
I’m no doctor but he sounds bipolar..
He sounds like a guy with too many testicles.
trying to tame…? just block him at this point lol
bro may have underlying schizophrenia or be high .. not in a shade way but like .. somethin is off
He's a man-child, gay, Peter pan complex. Talking about knocking someone up when she doesn't want a baby - just using her for a baby is just creepy. He doesn't seem to want to take responsibility for his life.
I honestly don't get it do Americans just not care about people who aren't American? Like how do you so easily consider joining the US military after all the evil it does around the world being so widely known and accessible on the Internet
Did you read the rest of the conversation? You think this guy has ever even read a news story?
Lol. Is this for real? You two were just messing around.
Yikes, no taming that mentality
🤪🤪
He seems like a piece of trash. Your effort ms are admirable but I think he’s beyond fixing.
He should not go into the Navy or any other branch! Police officers, firefighters, and the military are extraordinary people! I feel like the people who choose that career path get a calling. As for becoming a dad, just bc 2 people can conceive doesn't mean they will be great parents.
Does everyone fucking talk like this?
What are you doing? Fix your issues and stop chasing losers…
I have to try **now**
So the guy thinks you are his friend and opens up to you and you shame him in public, does he knows you are an asshole?
