This is more of an on-going story than a full one, so I apologize. Due to the economy sucking and my college debt increasing more and more, I have decided to look into becoming a surrogate. Around January, I got into contact with this older couple looking for a surrogate, so we began to message each other, and I’ve gotten to know them a bit. Sarah and Ethan (obviously not their actual names) are in their late 30s, and their concerns are that they wouldn’t want their child or Sarah to have issues as she’s now AMA and at a higher risk of complications.
We’ve spoken about the money, and they are basically willing to provide me with six figures as well as support me during the pregnancy. They would also be handling all the legal stuff. They request I take the time off my studies so I wouldn’t be stressed and that could possibly affect the child, which I am fine with as I am a bit aimless in school at the moment and could use that time to think about what I would like to focus on.
The only issue that has arisen is that Ethan has privately messaged me about wanting me to conceive traditionally. Ethan has planned that he would go provide his sperm, and on the day I would get artificially inseminated with Ethan’s sperm, we would instead go to a hotel and he would inseminate me traditionally. I have no issues with having sex with Ethan, but I’m not sure if I should feel guilty if we go behind Sarah’s back or if I should feel guilty at all.
Outside of that one thing, they seem like great people, and we have even arranged a get-together during my spring break to talk in person and discuss it. I’m sharing this here as I’ve already asked a few friends about their thoughts, and they seem to all agree that Ethan should not be asking for me to traditionally surrogate. He’s claiming he’s a freak and could use it as a way to take advantage of me.
Any feedback would be great, as come April I will have to have a concrete answer to give them. If you have a lengthy response, you’re welcome to write to me through email! Chika_S(at)Outlook.com
I will provide updates here and there ^-^!
