Today, I called my ex boyfriend to tell him that not only am I still in love with him, I'm also three months pregnant with his child. Upon hearing the news, he swore, called me a pathetic liar, swore some more, and hung up on me. FML

FYL but what did you expect? Did you think he might say he's been missing you, didn't have the courage to call, and can't wait to be a real family of three? Time to put your big girl knickers on, dear. Grow up. You don't have the luxury of lounging in self-pity at the moment since you have some big decisions to make. I hope things work out well for you. Don't count on anybody giving you a "happily ever after" ending.

That sucks. Be glad you're not with him anymore, he sounds like a prick.

Maybe I'm being an unsympathetic asshole here, but I get where he's coming from. Listen, he is your EX. There was probably a good reason for that. Maybe he dumped you, or you dumped him, but the point is he clearly does not want to be with you any more. The fact that you still love him? Completely irrelevant, and by telling him that, makes it seem like you are guilt tripping him. And honestly, what if the roles were switched (obviously without the being pregnant part). Would you like it if your ex told you they still had feelings for you when you'd already moved on? I know I sure wouldn't. It comes across as pathetic and irritating. In any case, you've got some hard decisions to make. If you decide to keep the baby, hopefully he will step up and be a father for it for the baby's sake, but don't expect him to come running back to you.

You deserve it for sleeping with such a douche bag

@69- She consented to have sex too. Your argument is invalid. Thanks for playing, see you next week.

Yeah, I don't know if someone has said this really, but honestly Girlie, consider how this is making HIM feel too. He wanted you to be out of his life (sorry to say but it happens) and NOW he knows he can't have that without a large amount of other problems that he didn't want or sign up for. I'm certainly not saying that it isn't okay for you to tell him you're pregnant with his kid, obviously it's fine, but you can't expect him to just be like 'HEY REALLY? GREAT!' I'm sorry. I'd flip my shit too if someone told me that. (Then again, I like men.) See, women can't know what that is like, but think about it anyway. You really want to break up with this guy even though he still has feelings for you, for whatever reason, you need to move on in life. BAM. You can't. End of story.

I'm really sorry! The same thing happened to me 26 yrs ago except he also called me a ***** & everything else you can think of, I ended up miscarrying and a few years later met the man I've been married to for 22 years! That loser has been married and divorced numerous times and will die a lonely old man! You take care of you & your baby, to hell with him! Good luck!

for any of u who say to abort it, you really suck at life u shouldn't kill a child it's not the babys fault it was made. grow some balls and take care of what u have done instead of takin the easy way out. and to who posted this forget about him and find a real man.

I'm not sure I would take any sort of life advice from someone who tells a woman to "grow some balls".

Doc, though the wording is atrocious, I think they were telling the people who suggested abortion to grow balls, not OP. The last sentence seems to be the only one addressing OP, and has no mention of ball growing. IMO, don't take the car for a spin if you don't have insurance and couldn't afford payments if you wrecked it. Also, don't screw if you can't accept the possibility of a child and the responsibilities that come with it.

no, doc -- he is right; if OP had had any balls at all, she would not be pregnant!

Doc, she probably meant that women should grow a spare set of ovaries =)

I suggested abort it, somewhere, but I don't know where my comment has gone. I don't want to grow any balls though, might look weird without a dick to accompany it. :(
