the father ran off after i told him
| Wed, 12-13-2006 - 6:17pm |
new to the boards, i am 23 and the father is 19 (turning 20 this week) and after i told him 9 days ago i haven't heard or seen him since. guess i'll be dealing with this baby alone it seems. we'd been dating for less than 2 months and i'm not sure if he's shell shocked and needs time alone to think about everything or if he's done with me. to top it off my family wants me to get an abortion. i feel like all odds are against me. any advice?

With or without him, with or without family support what do you want to do? It's still your decision.
Sorry you have to go through this.

The only things I have to say are...
1) Take care of YOU (family pressuring abortion is NOT cool...mine probably would do the same if I were pregnant and unmarried, and I would tell them to stick it!)
2) At 19 (almost 20) he's probably terrified...and I know you are...he may come around, he may not, but he still has a responsibility to your child.
3) Good luck and you're in my prayers.
