Honey, you don’t need this guy hurting you, or your baby. He can’t force you to do anything YOU don’t want to do. I agree on what some of the other girls said. Break up , and if needed, get a restraining order. You don’t deserve to hurt repeatedly for something he FORCED you do to in the first place. If he couldn’t handle the consequences of sex, he shouldn’t have made you do it. THe sound of this guy makes me sick. I’ve been in an abusive relationship. I broke it off, and got a restraining order. If he comes within 100 feet of me, he gets arrested. It works well. Don’t make yourself stay in a situation that hurts you.. that isn’t love.. get out of it.., and SOON.
Yeah, as crazy as everything is, everything with the baby seems to be ok.. And Yes, my mom told me the same thing – carrying low means boy. I’m glad to see that someone out there understands.
Well, Here is an update.. My Dad wants me to have an abortion, my Grandma wants me to keep it, and my boyfriend wants me to give it up for adoption. I am hearing so many different things from everybody that it’s overwhelming. I have told everyone that I AM keeping, and that I WILL be fine, and so will my baby. It does seem like the people that I need by my side don’t really want to be, and even though my Grandma says to keep it (she said that she’s not going to tell me to do anything I don’t want to do, as she made the same mistakes at 16), she says that adoption would probably be best for the baby. My boyfriend as of now has told his father, but not his mom. He’s scared to death, and thinks that I don’t understand, but I REALLLY REALLY do. I’m just as terrified. He keeps telling me that even if I don’t give it up for adoption, he’ll be there and he’ll help me take care of the baby, but that he thinks he won’t be a good parent and that he will still think someone else would be better suited to. I can’t do it. I am already attatched, there would be no way I could give MY baby away. It seems like no one cares about what I want for my child, as they keep telling me "you’re only a child yourself, you don’t need to try and raise one!"… but what they don’t understand is that I ceased to be a child when I found out that I’m pregnant.. The only thing I care about right now is my baby. I did find out that I can not only continue to go to school until the baby is born ( well, I’m not sure exactly when, but I should be due in june or july.School will already be out) but I can bring the baby to school with me after the birth. That makes me feel a lot better. I’m not going to let anyone tell me to get rid of my baby, no matter how hard they try.
I would also like to ask you guys for any advice on financial help.. Any resources you may know of that could help me out would be great..
I really appreciate everyone who replied to my message.. It make me feel a lot better knowing that there are others like me out there.. and that even if I don’t have support from my family, that I have support from all of you.
Again, thank you, and god-bless
