In just three weeks of dating, OP and her boyfriend find themselves confronting a situation that is emotionally charged and ethically perplexing. The issue revolves around Polo, the child who is not biologically related to her boyfriend but with whom he shares a significant history.
Boyfriend had been a consistent and nurturing presence in Polo’s life during his previous relationship with Baby Moma. However, following their split, he has limited interaction with Polo, primarily when he spends time with Marko. The conflict escalates when Baby Moma unilaterally demands that the boyfriend take both Marko and Polo for the night, an act that he finds financially challenging due to his limited resources.
OP’s distaste for absentee fathers and her empathetic stance towards her Boyfriend’s involvement with Polo lead to a discussion about responsibility and obligations. Boyfriend’s inner conflict stems from his emotional attachment to Polo, despite the absence of a biological connection. He feels an innate responsibility for Polo’s well-being due to his prior involvement.
