This whole shyt took me out
from the perspective of the boyfriend, I'm not doing nothing with no one's kid if the option hasn't been presented to the father, and even then we have to be dating awhile for me to feel comfortable doing it. I gotta know more about the woman I'm dating and her relationship with the father. I'm 100% not going into a relationship volunteering to do parental shyt for the kid if the kid's father is alive, local, and otherwise not a threat to his child(ren).
Not saying boyfriend did that here, not enough info to go on but before I do anything like that I'd have to know more about the woman I'm dating.
If the woman I'm with has an emotionally immature ex I'm staying off that period, I value my own peace. I might even stop dealing with the chick, because just because you have an emotionally bankrupt ex doesn't mean I have to make it my problem too
but if I really like the woman I'll still see her, but I'm not involving myself in any matters of the child.
I think if you're in this guy's role, you have to understand the emotional ties between father and child, and if you don't get that, dating women with kids isn't for you. And if it's a good relationship with her and I beyond all this other stuff and I do, do stuff like this with the kids, homeboy run down on me like that we definitely fighting. I'm not gonna disrespect him, definitely not in front of his child, and if he wants his child I'm not debating with him about it. But soon as he start threatening me I gotta show him something
From the father's point of view, there are so many things that could trigger this reaction. He had the wrong reaction 100%, no question about it, but if there's a pattern of mom playing him out in favor of her new man, I get it. The fact she mentions "child support" isn't relevant because nothing here is shown that the man hasn't supported his child, certain women use buzzwords to keep an image going for the new man.
So his anger is probably more about the mom than boyfriend but he has to fight mom legally. Also we don't have enough info on if he's been disrespected by the boyfriend before, which could play into this reaction. There's just way too much information missing to shyt on dude outright, but he definitely gotta grow up because you can't have that reaction in front of your child.
If I'm in this situation I'm not going out like this in front of my kid.
