No kidding

Today, my pregnancy test came back positive. My boyfriend is no fan of fatherhood, so it was with some hesitation that I called him and let him know I'm pregnant. He replied, "Like hell you are!" and hung up. He now refuses to answer any of my calls. FML

You should have brought him To chuckie cheese and told him if he was going to be that immature

He did act like a asshole, but it takes two to make a baby. You knew he didn't like the idea of fatherhood, yet neither one of you took the precautions of preventing it.

I'd recommend bringing this up in person with him in the first place. That would make it more difficult for him to ignore you.

Its his fault for not using protection, then he acts like a little sour princess about it. He has no idea about sex whatsoever, thinking it was OK to not use a condom. Even if the OP was using birth control pills, they can somtimes fail and its still best to use a condom.

It's more than just that, a condom can fail too. The purpose of sex is procreation, so if he wants to enjoy the pleasurable side of it, he needs to man up for the true purpose.

jeez, you deserve better than him, sounds a little harsh but its true, you need someone to stand beside you and your unborn child, hopefully he realizes that acting like a child isn't the way to get your way when you're an adult...

Should have handcuffed him down before telling him. I hope he comes around after cooling off. If not, you're better off without him

Why do people have kids like this? Terrible, on both your parts. Learn about contraception.

Yes, because contraception NEVER fails. *rolls eyes*

It would certainly be better than no contraception at all. I've heard that condoms have something like 95-99% success rate. I'd say that's pretty good.

Everyone is ranting like the OP didn't use protection, though. We don't know that. People get pregnant all the time, even if they use condoms and/or birth control.

95% still means 5 out of every 100 people get pregnant. If 1 million people are using condoms as their sole birth control than 50,000 people are still going to have unplanned pregnancies. If OP's boyfriend REALLY didn't want kids they should've been using the pill too, but even if you're using two methods there's still a really small chance you can get pregnant (and it does happen to some couples actually)

The overwhelming majority who have oops babies aren't religiously using protection, so I'm inclined to believe that this is the case here. If it weren't, I'm sure it would've been mentioned, since it adds to the FMLness of the FML.

The boyfriend's response makes me think they were using at lease one form of protection. Judging by a lot of the comments on here, many people believe condoms and other types of birth control are fail-proof. Hence why he refused to believe she was actually pregnant.

condoms? why screw someone who despises children n would react this way

Do not consider abortion. Things will be tough, trust me, I found out I was pregnant and my boyfriends family is Muslim. He and his sisters forced me to have an abortion... I am not happy. Everyday I want to kill myself. It's humiliating embarrassing and I promise you, every single thing about a pregnant woman or child upsets me. Every day is a living torturous hell. Your baby loves you, it needs you, and you will love it. You DO NOT need a man in your life to complete you or make you feel unwanted. Keep your precious miracle living inside of you, that baby is worth everything sweetheart.

All the men out there who aren't 'fans' of fatherhood, there's this little procedure called a 'vasectomy'. Try it. Please.

Yes, even if your grandfather's bequest doesn't pay for it, it's worth it.

I was going to say the same thing, #104. If OP's boyfriend really, really isn't a fan of fatherhood, he can go to a clinic and get the little snippy-snippy procedure. Heck, some insurance plans even pay for it. Of course, even vasectomies aren't perfect, but their failure rate is amazingly small.
