Okay, I'm finally writing back to all 401 of your comments. Yes, I am a pregnant teenager- although, I can not see how that has any revelance to my post, pregnancy in teenagers happens quite often and I do not appreciate the judgemental/negative comments being thrown at me. It's pure slander. Yes, the father and I did have a fallout and I will be raising the baby on my own, with the help and support of my family and friends- not to mention he lives in the northern part of the state that I live in, which happens to be 4-5 hours away, even if he wanted to be here for the arrival of our child(which we are expecting to be a girl), he could not make it here on time. Therefore, my mother is my "go'to man", for lack of better words. I also notice you all are saying that he wouldn't want to hold my hand or watch the baby being born, I never said he would be in the delievery room- I simply asked him to keep my company during the scary hours of contractions that were yet to come, until my mother could arrive and take over. Yes, we had previously discussed it, and he had said that if need-be, he would be there. Unfortunately for me, he was speaking pure lies. As for the premature labor I did go into, they did stop it, and I am now on bed rest while taking a medicine called "terbutaline" every 4 hours in order to hold her until full term. (Which is also why I could write my FML, I didn't come home taking care of a baby, I came home on bed rest so I could have my baby at the correct time. I had nothing else to do but write my FML.) I do understand how confusing and misleading my post was, but keep in mind you only get a certain amount of letters to work with when writing your original FML, and by reading this I'm sure you've noticed that I could not elaborate thouroughly with 300 letters as a maximum. I do appreciate your opinions, even though I do not agree with all the statements that were made. Just wanted to explain since there were so many confused people.

#190: Fair enough on the last part. I missed that detail. Argument: 2. a discussion involving differing points of view; debate. I doubt the conversations went: "Hey friend, will you come wait with me while I'm having my baby until my mom gets here?" "I can't, I'm eating Corn Flakes and watching TV." "Okay, bye." She probably asked him to come, to which he said he couldn't, to which she asked why not (at which point it becomes an argument since she is trying to shift his view to see hers), to which he responded with "Corn Flakes and TV". If it wasn't an argument, it would've ended with "I can't". I dunno, most people I've known that have been in labor say its excruciating, and lasts hours or even days. So to muster up the energy and focus during a time like that to text someone makes me think it isn't a casual, "Hey, wanna kick it til my mom gets here and this kid pops out?" Obviously, that's an over-simplified version of the conversation if it hadn't been an argument, but I'm sure you can see where it would be a bit more involved than just "Okay, have fun with Corn Flakes and TV".

Um...what? You're having a baby by another man and you call this guy your crush? Also, I'm sure if I was in labor, my best friend would be there from the moment I got to the hospital. You have sucky friends. f your life indeed.
193: I fail to see where I'm a fool if the rest of your post expresses similar sentiment. *shrug*

WOW, you sound like you're ready to be a parent... NOT!!! Good job, you'll probably raise another idiot like yourself. Someday, your kid will be like, "My birth was unplanned and my mom is an idiot. FML."

#106 - you do realize contraceptives arent 100% effective right? and no one knows that the op is a kid.
They got laptops in the maternity ward? today, I was going through fmls while in labor and everybody realized this was a fake. FML.
#199 there is one that is 100% effective, only one pregnancy in all of history using this method: abstinence. =)
#195- labor is excrutiating past a certain point. Up until then it's simple discomfort and an occassional cramp. People do all sorts of things while in the early stages of labor, read books, make business arrangements, plenty of things much more complicated than asking a friend to keep her company. Has anyone considered the posibility that she used the word "crush" to meet character requirements? It is certainly shorter than "man I am in love with." And asking someone their reasoning does not qualify as attempting to persuade. It is its own part of an argument, and until it is countered with her own reasoning, it is incomplete and therefore not an argument.
202: Well put. I stand corrected. Both on the reasoning/argument bit and on physical impact of labor. Being a guy, I'm obviously going off what I've seen and heard, so now I know. :-)

Just because he's eating cornflakes and watchin tv, doesn't mean he doesn't have a valid reason - ie no transportatiion. But personaly, the last thing I'd want to do is be a guy going in to be there for someone in labor whose on baby's daddy didn't want to be there. Unless it was a situation like the father had died the whole thing reeks of big trouble ahead

he probably knows you are into him so is avoiding being to close to you incase he gets the position of father figure to your child and is therefore stuck with you and the kid forever, he saved himself from having a fml
Is he the father? If he is, he should be more than a "crush". Sounds like a bad choice to me either way.
