Yes. You are so right. Clearly. Because finding out via text that the girl your seeing right now is pregnant, which means that you are now tied to her until said child reaches 18 or older if the child is born with downs or cp, and not being ready for it and being upset about it - which indicates that they haven't discussed having kids and aren't serious enough to have had that kind of discussion - makes him a total asshole and a horrible person and obviously the girl who accidentally got knocked up by her boyfriend deserves so much better. Get real. He's probably completely freaked out, and if that's the extent of his freak out? He's ******* strong. Kids are a BIG DEAL. Get that through your skull. It's not like she bought a puppy without telling him.

@bellafurfaro I agree with whisper softly, you need to get your head out your ass and realize OP just sent a freaking picture text of a positive pregnancy test to her BF!!! How the hell do you expect him to react? even if he's the greatest guy on earth he is still going to freak the hell out because he got no warning he just checked his phone and BAM now he's a dad anyone would be depressed in that situation because it is such a shocking and unexpected way to find out. OP is the one who messed up here she should have told him in person not via a bloody picture text or at least a phone call.

40- your an idiot, freaking out doesn't make him a jerk, it makes him human. Ignoring his new responsibilities would make him a jerk, douche, ect. Maybe if OP had told him face to face it he wouldn't react that way. I was dating my fiancé a month when I got pregnant and still never thought oh let's send a pic now. I waited until he got off work and we were face to face. For the haters I got pregnant after a month, stupid I know, we' be been together over 2 years now and just got engaged so save your judgement.

Oops, wrong comment. Sorry :/

Since when does getting married make you OBLIGATED to become a parent?

Who said they didn't use birth control? Birth control provides 99.99% of protection, so there is still always that possibility of an accidental pregnancy.

60 - but it's still 99.99% effective. There's no way that THIS MANY accidental pregnancies are the .01% of people who it wasn't effective for.

62- there are over 7 billion people on the Earth, in the U.S. there are roughly around 400 million give or take, so that .01% adds up to a several million unplanned pregnancies in the U.S. alone.

You could always use two forms of birth control. For example, boy wears condom, girl takes pills.

Even if both of the partners are using a form of birth control there is always a slim chance of pregnancy, both pills and condoms can fail. I'm not saying you are going to get pregnant even with protection, I'm just stating that there will always be a possibility of pregnancy occurring, no matter how small the chances are.

@avenger412 the problem is most of these accidental pregnancies are because one or both partners didn't use some sort of birth control. Also your percentage is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy off 0.01% of 400 million is only 40000 not several million as you said if it was several million it would have to have over a 10% fail rate for birth control. Just from a quick google search you can find out approx 6 million woman get pregnant a year in the united states 0.01% of 6 million is 600. Sorry avenger but your so called several million is off by well several million

My first pregnancy involved the pill and a condom. My second, the pill and a plan B prevention pill. Birth control fails, much more often than people like to believe.

I admit I COMPLETELY miscalculated the number (damn calculator), but my point still stands that it's possible for pregnancy to happen no matter the amount of protection. Also, I did not say there aren't people who don't use protection (of course there are), but that you can always get pregnant, no matter how high or low the chances are, there's still a chance if you have sex unless you happen to be infertile.

The pill is actually about 93% effective. That is if you take it everyday, at the same time, and are not taking anything else that counteracts.

Thank you for that well thought out comment!

Theres a button for that.

maybe she saw that his status was updated from his cellphone?
