Dear RiotGirl. Thank you. I have offered both option 1 and 3 (option 2 is taken care of here in the UK by the Child Support Agency....groans from all parents). Neither are an option for him as he doesn't want a child full stop. Once again I got the...do the right thing and get rid......today almost sounded like the 'me or it' phrase! I have made him hate me for forcing this on him and he say I am pressurising him..... It's funny how you see the darker side of people when the sun stops shining! Stupidly I still hope he will come around to the idea, but regardless of that, there is a child who will be his in this world. It will be his choice how he deals with that. I am open to all options. Thank you to everyone. Maybe someone else can learn from my stupidity. Even when u think everything is wonderful, don't take the risks unless u know u can deal with the consequences on your own. One day these tears of sadness will be replaced with tears of joy as I see this child grow up, loved by me. I am giving it the gift of life. I may not be able to give it everything, but what I can give, money cannot buy. i know how you feel sweetie. Mine actually took option 4. Tell the girl you are sterile and there's no way it could be yours <grins> (it gets funnier) THEN go out and knock up the girl your girl caught you with, with two kids. 3 immaculate conceptions. Are you impressed, cos i sure am. Just imagine how many kids he'd have in this world if he wasnt sterile. As for staying with him, i hope things work out for you. i know its hard. But try and remember that if things are rocky now, they'll prolly only get rockier. Kids are tough to have and they put a big strain on a relationship. <grins> He'll drive you nuts while you're pregnant anyways. LOL i about lobbed my room mates head off for staying in the bathroom too long once. Really cant believe its "me or it" Thats terrible. Ulimatiums suck dont they? Personally i dont agree with abortion, though i've had one once, and i think its murder of your own flesh in blood. At 6 weeks there's brain activity. Me or it, translates as murder or me. how about kill for me? And the thing about abortion, well i've never heard of it affecting any female well mentally. It just gets to you. Heck i was lighting candles in churches for ages for the little soul. And you think 8 years down the line about that person that will never be. It was something it took a long hard time to forgive myself about. It affects you. i honestly dont know a feeling person who hasnt been affected by it. Your own flesh and blood, apart of you, well it touches the very depths of you. After my abortion at 17, i will never have another. i've told every boyfriend straight up. The first time, i can put it down to not grasping the full effect, not really understanding. But i know now. On a lighter note, if some one ever tries to give you an ultimatium again, suck your cheeks in and give them a fishy face. They'll either A) think you're nuts B) be aught off gaurd by it C) think you're insulting them or D) understand you're calling them crazy. Try giving them "are you off your rocker" look.. then smile and continue on as if it never happened. For a more direct approach to dealing with these comments, take a GOOD long look at the door look back at them and smile that "knowing" look. Even more direct is saying "dont let the door kick you where my foot should be" Or you could always just try ignoring him for awhile. It seems to make men stop and think. It gives them abit of space to think. Just shrug your shoulders at him, ignore him for a week and hopefully he'll have some deep personal converstions with himself and get smart. For your sake i hope it all works out the way you want it too and i wish you the best of luck. another good bit of advice, is to put it in God's hands. Sounds silly, aye i know, but go have a really good conversation with God, let him know what you'd wish, let him know how important it is you, heck tell him everything. Personally i always try and barter with God. = ) And ever since i was about 10 years old i think it was, He's pretty much come through. There's been a few times he hasnt, but over time i have seen the wisdom in why things went the way they went, which wasnt the way i wanted them to go. i always ended up better off when they went the other way then if they hadnt. Call me crazy and you non religious, but its always seemed to help.
