Let's pretend I'm not as lesbian

I have a friend whose daughter's father is like this. My friend had a multiple night stand with this guy, perfectly nice and all, but after two weeks they decided to call it quits, amicably. Two weeks later she figures out she's pregnant. Still no desire to get back with random guy, but he's been very supportive of the kid. Pays his child support on time, picks the kid up on the weekends, etc., but is otherwise a single guy. My friend has even tried setting the guy up with a friend or two.

But I think this is a pretty rare occurance. And guys who father children while in wedlock, but out of that wedlock, are, almost by the definition of decent, not decent guys. At least in the US (individuals in countries where getting a divorce is difficult or impossible may be a different matter, but only if they are separated without expectation of reconciliation).
