I’d been with my now, ex-boyfriend since my senior year of high school(’06). I got pregnant near the end of relationship, when we were seeing each other on and off. It wasn’t until we’d broken up for good that I realized I was pregnant. I told him soon after and from the start, he denied being the father and said he wasn’t ready for another kid. We were texting one another when I told him because he refused to answer my calls. I remember I got angry and told him, “Fine, I’ll take care of it!” Meaning, I would raise her as a single mom. I have to admit, abortion came to mind when he denied her because I had just lost my job and now my baby would have no father. However, I knew I could never go through with it. Apparently, he thought I meant I was going to get an abortion. At which point, he started saying it was “his baby too,” and I couldn’t make that decision by myself, I was being selfish, etc, etc. Basically, everything he could think of to make me feel bad. After that, we didn’t speak again.
