European guy, weird by default.
You dislike what I say, great. Makes the world a more interesting of a place. But try to disagree with me beyond a downvote. Argue your point. Let’s see if we can reach a consensus between our positions.
I like the zombie trope but you really can’t get only the good parts and leave out the bad ones.
If zombies are rotting corpses, every carrion eating insect is going to have a field day. Plus any other predator or even any animal feeling threaned.
Plus the weather. Heat accelerates decomposition. Cold burns tissues. Water logfing from rain would be a nuisance, at least. Too dry, you get mummies.
There are too many things wrong in this entire situation.
If you did not want children, you should not had let your partner pressure you into it. And that 5 figure she wanted tells me she was indoctrinated to be a brood mare, not an independent woman.
Have you tried your best? Are you still trying? Yes. But I risk things will only get worst in the future between you and your partner. Respect was broken; that is the worst that can happen in a relationship.
Regarding the child - and I am going to be cold and cruel here: man up.
That child did not ask to be conceived and born. Their entire world is you - again, because regardless your state of mind, you seem a lot more involved than the mother - and even though the connection isn’t there, consider it a duty towards a completely defenceless human being. I’m not telling you to love them but to protect and care for them as if you were in their situation: show kindness and respect.
Which you seem to be showing and makes you a bigger human being.
There is no magic solution for this situation. Sincerely speaking, it wasn’t the right time for that child to be born, if ever, but they’re here now. Find a solution as adults.
I wish I could spare some face to face time to hear you out and give some real support but I fear we live in too far away parts of the world for that to happen.
Be brave and be honest, just like you’ve been doing and done here.
You do understand all the ramifications underneath that simple and silly question, right?
That’s a sub trope that makes me wonder: why animate a corpse when animating the skeleton alone achieves the same purposes? For visual impact?
And even in magic universes, physics still afects everything. Frost freezes the undead, heat cinzes their flesh, etc.
