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.

Mine left the hospital to grab a couple tallboys (large cans of beer) at the gas station across the street so he could get a buzz on while I was laboring.

ETA it felt great to leave him.

I was on bed rest for a week with eclampsia before it was safe enough to induce me. I was scared and since it was more than a month before my due date, my family that all lived several hours away weren’t able to get off work to come be with me. The father of my child managed to stop by a couple of times during the week on his way home and acted annoyed when I asked him to spend a little more time with me. He maybe spent an hour total over the week. Then he tried to leave after they induced me “I want a shower and to smoke a bowl. I might play some Fallout and possibly sleep - If so, I’ll be back in the morning.” I told him if he left, I would have the nurses ensure he was not able to enter again.

It also felt pretty good to leave him.
