Every once and a while I like to go to petsmart and watch the hamsters run around. When its it's raining, I go on TwoXChromosomes

My boyfriends opinion on abortion has taken a turn since we found out I was pregnant yesterday..

We both are in our mid twenties and not capable to have a child, financially or maturity wise.

The fathers thoughts and feelings are worthless, she is the sole arbitrator or hers and her mates abilities and wishes.

I have 300 extra dollars a month and have to start paying health insurance in January, cutting that in half.

What's mine is mine and what's yours is ours.

I’m in 70k worth of student debt.

Your own fault

We always talked if this were to happen, we would terminate until we were on our feet.

Because people aren't allowed to change their minds based on new experience or information.

My boyfriend is beyond consolable. I am having to be strong for the both of us and I am upset too.

Remember. You need to man up and console her when she feels sad but god forbid you need something in return.

It’s not an easy decision but it’s also not feasible right now.

Sounds like you made the decision pretty readily. Take note, the only hard decision women ever make is what shoe to buy. Everything else is rationalizing.

He is telling me he can’t even look at me without thinking our baby is inside of me.

Protecting your offspring… I wonder if that has any advantages.

He says he doesn’t think he can assist me to the appointment.

It is never your responsibility to support someone's decision, especially when you disagree.

He says he doesn’t think our relationship will make it through this if I follow through.

Ultimatums are useless. Never give one to a girl. If you find yourself wanting to, either hard or soft next: see, bitch management hierarchy.

All this is being dumped on me while I’m also in shock and disbelief.

Yes honey, how would you know that sex leads to pregnancy? Shocking I know.

Can anyone please give me encouraging stories or just abortion experience stories.

“Can someone validate my decision for me? I would hate for there to be anything that doesn't 100% agree that my decision is the only decision”

I read about “how much regret I’m going to feel” and I have a friend who has always told me she regretted hers.

lol

When I looked at that test, I never thought of the possibilities. I instantly just knew I wanted to terminate. No romanticizing. I am not ready to be a mother.

Yea deffinatly sounds like a tough decision. You go girl

But it may mean my relationship is over when I need my partner most..

Doesn't really sound like you were there for him at all sweetheart considering you talked about yourself the entire post.

 To paraphrase the rational male, “abortion is hypergamy". Main takeaways from this:
  1. Your parental rights end the second you bust your nut. It will never matter whether or not you think you're ready to be a father, nor if you feel you could take care of the child yourself.

  2. Women have a need to be the sole arbitrators of who's DNA gets passed along. She will fight tooth and nail to for the ability to end your lineage up until birth

  3. Never under any circumstances expect your woman to be there for you. that's what male friends are for.

  4. Women will rationalize any action she takes

  5. The hamster is all powerful

Bonus top comment:

Don’t have the kid and spend your life raising them if your dude is so quick to wanna break up. Don’t let anyone guilt you into reconsidering a decision you think is best. I have my procedure tomorrow I couldn’t be more sure of it being the right choice as I’m homeless with a newborn already

God damn it. Enjoy the decline boys.
