Today, I found out I'm pregnant. It's okay, I know who the father is: my ex-boyfriend, who moved to Japan last week. FML

juno_op tells us more.

Hiii, I'm the OP. thanks for all the lovely comments, although there's a few that aren't very nice. I'm 24 btw, not 16, and I did use birth control, but you do know it's only 99% safe, right? These things can sadly happen. And we broke up because he was going.

Some how he figured it out before you did and he got the heck out of dodge!

I hope for your baby's sake that you two broke up on good terms, and that it wasn't a really rough split. If you choose to have your baby your ex can still help you provide for him/her, it just won't be as simple since he's in another country. Good luck, OP. Definitely a tough situation.

Well that's a bummer. Personally i hope he'll come back to help, I certainly would. Good luck to you OP.

Find a way to contact him and tell him. He does deserve to know, even if you did leave things on bad terms. After you tell him, take it from there. Whatever happens after that, happens. Good luck, OP. Congrats!

#143, an abandoned child still has the chance to lead a happy life. Abortion doesn't let the baby live at all. Period. And no, I am not against legalizing abortion. Although personally I would not get one myself.

Just abort it and don't tell him, problem solved. Abortion is safer for you, more economical and better for the environment. With your current busy life, abortion would be the way to go if you 2 were married and living together, much less with him in Japan.

Well if he has family in your area or somewhere other then Japan .. I suggest you tell them so they can get in contact with him

This fits my friend who just moved to Japan's situation extremely well... A little *too* well...

Press the big red button!! Abort abort!! People commenting are just assuming you'd be dumb enough to have the child alone?!!!

What the actual **** is your problem?! OP is an adult, going to school for an actual career, and you have no right to say whether she's capable of raising a child alone, based off one FML and a few comments.

Thank you, Samborambo! Finally, a voice of reason!

That's why you wait for marriage you *****, this world does not need any more snot nosed brats.
