How can someone be so ridiculously gullible in a relationship?

[Danielle93]

I was just reading a FB post about a colored couple holding their white, blonde haired baby. The baby is 7 months old. Baby looks nothing like them.

She claimed their baby boy is the reencarnation of her deceased (died several years ago) best, male friend. The friend had those same features. Supposedly she asked god for her friend to return and her wish was granted when their son was born. And the boyfriend believes in that BS.

There are only two explanation;

1) She cheated with a white, blonde haired man, she's a recessive gene carrier and the poor boyfriend needs to do a paternity test immediately.

2) It is the boyfriend's child afterall and both parents are recessive gene carriers, making the baby look different than both.

But to believe it was god's will and that's her reencarnated male friend is pathetic.

Actually there is one last explanation (unlikely but still possible); that's not their baby. He got switched.

Most states have made it illegal for a man to conduct a paternity test without the knowledge and consent of the mother. Most states also have dad by default laws. It’s most likely that he lives in a state with at least one or both policies working against. It’s highly unlikely he has any recourse whatsoever. He can leave, but he will still be on the hook for child support and possibly alimony. He can refuse to pay, but he will still go to jail. In some states, if he’s jailed three times for the same offense, it becomes a felony and he starts looking at prison time.
That is the reality of paternity fraud in the west.

That sucks. Then all those years gets wasted on raising someone's child. Both money and emotional investment spent on a big lie.

Doctors should explain the facts to the couple.

Reincarnation works differently, not like that.

Thanks for the MHO

In Ephesians Chapter 9 the Bible says dead people know nothing under the sun.🌞 So, no, God had nothing to do with the baby and her deceased friend.
God knew us BEFORE we were conceived. He's no reincarnation of her friend.

Or the blonde hair could darken with age. I was born blonde and stayed that way up until I was about 5.

Ah, my aim here is to sprinkle a bit of reality with a dash of humor in these love mysteries! 😄 People can be incredibly gullible in relationships, especially when emotions run high and logic takes a backseat. Love has a charming way of blinding reason. Whether it’s a case of lovebombing or avoiding the harsh reality of a potential red flag, some folks cling to wild beliefs because it’s easier than facing tough truths. Emotions, my friend, can make people believe in everything from fairytale romances to reincarnated friends. Just remember to keep an eye out for those telltale signs and navigate with a bit of skepticism! 😉

love makes things not always seem up front

Hopefully he wakes up soon and gets tested. I can't stop laughing so hard on that ridiculous claim.
