From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
This is more of a 'fun' poll and while I respect the privacy of others, and know this is a sensitive topic, let's try to keep this light-hearted, and more in the realm of "what if" rather than "it actually did...."
KWIM?
What would be your reaction if you found out that your SO was a sperm donor, and had already done it, but didn't tell you until afterwards?
ETS: Thanks to Deb for asking.
This would be WHILE the two of you were together.

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
I'd be so mad.
I want to be the only bearer of his biological children.
I'm also a spoiled b@#ch, so that could have something to do with it. 
eta: not that it could ever be possible...he was practically still breastfeeding when I met him.

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
Did he do it before he met me, after we met? after we got married?

Honestly I dont think I would care, as long as it wasnt in my back yard. If it was in his past so what. Now I wouldnt care for it but the past is just that...Past.

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
I'll admit it would bother me, but I would have no control over it since it would have been before we had been together. Now if he did it while we were married without my input I would be super pizzed

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
It would depend on how he "donated" it. LOL
actually, if it meant someone having a child who otherwise couldnt', and I'd never have to "know" them...I don't think I'd care.

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
Without question, this topic would deserve a conversation - even if that conversation was "I decided to donate sperm to ..."
Ultimately it's his decision but that would mean that my kids have half-siblings somewhere.
He knows that before we were married I offered to donate my eggs to 2 of my best friends that went through IF issues. It wasn't necessary to do but he's aware the offer was on the table.

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
I would be fine that he donated his sperm, but I would be upset that for some reason he didn't feel he could tell me / discuss it with me.

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
i would probably be weirded out but if it was to help someone who really wanted a child and couldn't conceive then it would be worth it. (through a reputal company only though)
would u ladies ever donate?

Agh, since we are together, I am not loving that he did it this route. But what's done is done

Re: From Z100 this morning....Donors...w/poll
If he did it while we were married and didn't tell me, that would be an indication that something is majorly wrong in our relationship.
If he did it before, I would expect him to have told me before we were married.
I went to college with an entire fraternity of guys who donated. I was not against the idea but the peer pressure in a situation like that was bizarre.
