TBH—This wasn’t as bad as I was expecting based on the intro. Sounds like both of you have some issues to work out, and you both have a certain level of culpability in the situation. The whole hiring an escort was a major, major dick move, but other than that it doesn’t seem like he’s a psychopath (at least based strictly off his posting). Maybe insecure, jealous, confused, and very immature, but not exactly a psycho. The kid will complicate your life immensely, so I would recommend you both do some very serious soul searching and figure out if you want to put in the effort to make things work. Have an open and honest discussion about it. I wish you both the best of luck, hope you figure things out. Cheers.

What was the dick move about hiring an escort? If he found a willing partner to do the exact same thing without monetary exchange would it have been less bad?

“Looking back I just wanted to hurt Amy” - Thats why it was a dick move.

Ok. So it isn't about her being an escort or not, it's about the intended impact?

He was willing to lie about some big things. Didn't even admit until later he did the escort thing just to hurt her. How can you have an open and honest discussion when one party can't even be fully honest with themselves?

So, the man is a horrible person and a psychopath because check notes he fucked a woman after a year of his wife basically being in another sentimental relationship.

The fact that he paid the woman makes stuff SOOOO different.

Never said he was a horrible person or psychopath. I said you can't have an honest conversation with someone who can hardly be honest with themselves.

I said a comment reads like it was coming from a psychopath. Not that the dude in the story is one. Reading comprehension dude.
