The Dirt - The Male Perspective by Duane Whitlock

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day and she confided in me that she was torn between her baby’s father - whom she has known for 4 years and not to mention who was selected in this year’s NFL draft - or her soul mate whom she has known for a mere 4 months. Here is the breakdown of her situation.  My friend and her baby’s father broke up due to a lack of communication and constant arguing. Her newfound friend seems to have all of the qualities that she has been seeking.  They also have great conversation and have so much in common that it’s scary. Recently her baby’s father made the suggestion to her that he wanted custody of the baby so that she could continue with her dreams of becoming an actress.  This did not sit well with my friend of course, considering the fact that this was all news to her and she never thought that the ex-boyfriend would come at her like this. Her soul mate supported her and they decided that the best thing to do was to be together throughout this drama and become tighter as she would need him the most. Well yesterday she called me and informed me that her ex now wants to retain his family and marry her so that they can raise their 9-month old child together. She is confused at this point because she knows that her life will be financially better with her little boy’s father, but she has never felt love like she felt with her new friend. What should she do?
