Today, I went to the hospital in premature labor. Alone, I texted my best friend/crush and asked him to come and sit with me for an hour while I waited on my mom to arrive. Eating cornflakes and watching TV, he replied "I can't". Apparently TV is more important than a best friend in labor. FML

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.

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.

Why would you want your crush to see you like that?

Wait, this is extremely confusing. You're going into premature labor... you call your best friend/"crush"... you don't call the father... where is the father in this equation? This sounds like a Maury episode waiting to happen.

#223- You make as much sense as a girl in labor calling her crush. Seriously, it's not hard to read 3 lines of text. What I pulled from that was that, "I'm alone in a hospital in labor, calling my crush and mom, when my crush says 'I'm busy eating cornflakes and watching TV'. FML". Seriously, no one here is saying "you dirty ***** why are you getting pregnant anyway YDI OMG" or anything. If someone she 'loved' absolutely NEEDED to be there, it should be the baby's dad or her mother, not some jackass who's apparently more occupied with eating and sitting on his ass rather than consoling his 'best' friend.

You sound like a high maintenance p.i.t.a. Crush's are definitely not responsible for playing baby daddy. It sounds like your best friend is your interpretation, and possibly the victim of a stalking... Sincere congratulations on having your first!

One single thing determines if it's an FML or a YDI. Is your "crush" the father? Because if he isn't, you're pressuring him if he knows you like him. If he is, there's something wrong.

1st of all, the fact that the baby's father wasn't there should be more of an FYL than that your crush wasnt their, and you should be more worried about having that baby grow up and know it's father. 2nd- Why the **** are you on FML if you just had a baby.

First off I gave you a YDI for the "crush" part. A best friend is one thing to want around but some of that "crush" part makes me think you want him/her to be a part of your life and child's life. The father needs to man up and take responsibility. On side notes though, to the people saying that it's the man's responsibility as much as the woman that is true to an extent. The reason being is that if the father of the child asked for an abortion early on the woman doesn't have to respect that. So thus this ends the equality train very quickly. If I don't get a say if a child is being brought into this world than I don't feel there are equal rights for the pregnancy. Also a lot of single parents (if that is the case) are usually on welfare or get pregnant by different men. Practice safe sex or have the morning after pill ready. I have no sympathies for this new fad of being a single mother.

232 rocks. Also, if the babies own dad isn't present your best friend/"crush" is not responsible for your poor judgement and does not need to be there with you in the hospital.
