I'm gonna guess that she's happily startled because, for example, mine hit his weed pen outside every 15 minutes and fell asleep on the couch and never once came near me. I think that my experience (or smth similar) is pretty common.

Edit: Hi, I'm an actually human person and was the first to comment on this. I'm not trying to start a damn war of the roses, and apparently this is NOT the correct answer (see the next comment below mine). Just popped in with my stupid, obviously incorrect thought about what this could mean. So chill with calling me a stupid whore.

What kind of country do you live in where that's okay? Or even if not okay, common...

Granted I'm no father yet but my girlfriend means too much to me to be able to abandon her if she needs me by her side normally, let alone during childbirth

Going through these comments, sure is a lot of women having babies with absolute losers.

People are touching on the issue here, but they're not really saying it outright. But basically...you choose the people you hang out with. And if you've only ever hung out with complete fucking losers, you will probably choose to continue hanging out with losers because you don't even know you can do better. Meanwhile, people who've only ever hung out with decent people are going to meet a loser once and decide to never hang out with them again, and then they promptly forget about them.
