DaRealness
I think very deeply
That "real man" shyt kills me. What the fukk makes you real in that situation?
There aint nothing admirable about that situation. You wasn't there to see that baby be born, missed their first words, first steps etc. In the end you'll never be that kid's daddy, you just a nikka who fukkin they mom. nikkas just love framing themselves as some sort of hero to escape the reality of their L.
That's female shyt
That's my point. When I have children, I want EVERYTHING from the jump: The sex (obviously), seeing my woman's belly grow bigger, the birth, first words, first steps, first day of school etc.....I want the whole entire experience that's unique to me as a father.
But nah, I'm supposed to be a "real man" and take on some broad with kids to prove I'm a responsible person.

I damn sure ain't putting myself in a position where you get some snotface brat come tell me I'm not their dad while the mother sides with them and insists I can't talk to her kids that way - I've seen that shyt happen before. fukk that.
On the other hand, what if the kids love you, you love them, but the mother decides it's over between the both of you for whatever reason and decides to go off with some other dude 500 miles away and insists you never contact any of them again? Then there ain't shyt you can do about not seeing them because you're not their biological father. So all that providing you did for them over the years and you ain't got shyt to show for it but a bunch of photographs and you're left looking like a sucker like that dude at the end of Smooth's video 'You've been played'.
Nope, neither scenario is happening to me. Sorry.
