Guy Says GF Isn’t “The One” And Dumps Her, Pops Up 11 Years Later With Baby Number 9 And Regret

Breakups can be dumpster fires, but sometimes the universe waits years before delivering the real relationship plot twist. One woman thought she’d seen the last of her serial cheater ex, until a random parking lot encounter brought the past roaring back.

What followed wasn’t just an awkward reunion; it was a ninth baby announcement, a regret-filled confession, and a text message so bold it left her debating with an online community whether to respond thoughtfully or just reply with an ice-cold block.

After one woman confronted her boyfriend about cheating, he claimed she wasn’t “the one” because she didn’t want children, and then his reasoning only got more absurd

11 years later, fate staged a reunion, and the woman’s ex followed up with a text revealing baby number nine, leaving her asking netizens how she should react, if at all

The original poster (OP) had already been feeling uneasy even before the cheating confession. Her boyfriend had slowly moved into her home without an actual conversation, eroding her sense of privacy and space. When she finally confronted him, he admitted he knew she wasn’t “the one” because she didn’t want kids.

That alone might have been enough, but he went way further. He actually claimed that “like all Jamaican men”, his dream was to have a baby with every race of woman so he could see himself reflected in each one. OP later asked three Jamaican men she knew about it; two admitted it had once been a childish fantasy, and one just scoffed at the idea.

The sidepiece he cheated with had even been introduced to OP as “just a friend,” despite her knowing they were together. Six months after the breakup, that same woman texted her claiming she was pregnant, and worried he was cheating on her too. OP simply replied, “You lose them how you got them,” and blocked her.

Then, nearly 11 years later, OP ran into her ex after a sporting event and barely recognized him; he had not aged well. Later that night, he sent her a wall of text announcing his ninth kid was on the way, confessing regret, and asking to “reconnect”. Now she’s asking netizens whether she should send him the LOL emoji or just block him.

Let’s face it: some people come back into your life as closure; others as cautionary tales. In OP’s case, the universe not only delivered a stark reminder of why she left, it also gifted her a full statistical update. Nine babies later, the question isn’t whether she dodged a bullet or not, but whether she side-stepped an actual mating missile.

Experts say that when exes suddenly reappear, it’s usually less about true love and more about good old-fashioned nostalgia or unmet emotional needs. Therapists say regret tends to surface when harsh reality fails to match the rose-colored fantasy, and here’s a stat for you: a YouGovpoll found that 43% of Americans have gone back to an ex at some point. That’s a lot.

Psychologists explain that people sometimes romanticize former partners who represented actual stability, kind of like their own personal emotional support human. When life becomes properly chaotic, the memory of someone grounded can feel ridiculously shiny. Basically, it’s like comfort food for the soul. 

There’s also a pattern literally known as “grass is greener syndrome,” where folks leave perfectly stable relationships chasing imagined fulfillment, only to later spectacularly regret the decision. Hello consequences. 

In OP’s case, staying celibate and child-free for over a decade may not have been part of a grand plan, but it certainly spared her from becoming baby mama number ten. Sometimes peace and privacy are the real glow-up.

Well, 11 years later, she’s far from heartbroken, more like merely amused. The rogue (and not the lovable type) ended up crawling back with his tail between his legs, while life for OP couldn’t be sweeter. Funny how clarity only arrives after the ninth kid, right?

If you were in OP’s shoes, would you clap back with something witty, brutally honest, or just block and move on? Let us know in the comments!
