He should be concentrating on spending the time with his baby right now, but who knows if he is allowed to. I'm a step mom, and it doesn't end when the child turns 18, it is a forever relationship he will have or should have. I have three step kids (adults now) where the youngest was 8. I'm not sure if I would do that again, if I knew what I was getting into. I love them, but it was very hard on our marriage as my husband had an ex from Satan. lol If you are not up for that (not many young ladies would be, I wouldn't at your age,) it is best to move on and be glad he didn't hide this longer than he did. It sucks, that is for sure, especially if you really like him.
There are many single moms in their 20's or younger, and they got pregnant with someone probably their own age. Lots of single parents everywhere.

We are both in our early 20s. I was shocked, it totally caught me off guard. I'm not sure how to feel about this. I told him it was fine. I'm really not planning on being a step mother to a baby. I just started seeing this guy and really like him. He was telling me how much he dislikes the child's mother and that he's trying to get custody. I don't know what to do about this situation. I asked him if he was married, and he reassured me that he isn't. But my friend just told me he could be lying. Any advice? What should I do?
