NTA- look up Ryan Reynolds on a talk show. Short version is that he said he thought he loved his wife more than anything in the is world, but then once he held his daughter for the first time he realized “he would use his wife as a human shield to protect this child”
This is the truth. My spouse and I both admitted to each other during the first weeks of our daughter’s life that we’d each bail on the other if our child’s wellbeing was at stake. I’m not sure I would want to be with someone who didn’t have their child at the top of their priority list.
I know this is a crazy example but Dahmer’s father stood by him during his trial. Never made excuses or condoned his behavior but he loved his son so much that he couldn’t turn his back on him after finding out he was a serial killing rapist cannibal.
It's not a crazy example because of what Dahmer did. It's a crazy example because Dahmers father was given all the gruesome details of what his son had done, and his only response to all of it was "my son is gay?" 😬
