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.

1. How did you know what he was doing? Maybe he had something important to do soon after, and having a baby doesn't take a few minutes as far as I know. 2. Often, people consider tend to consider someone a bestfriend for no good reason. He may YOUR bestfriend(in which case, you need better friends), but that doesn't mean you are his. And there is no one I would do this for other than my BEST friend unless it was my baby. No one. It's just too much for a person I just consider a friend. 3. Who cares if it's your crush? If you've told him about it, it's ALMOST understandable, but showing up might give you the idea that he would be a substitute father. He doesn't owe you or the baby anything. I won't get into the age factor.

what kind of soap opera life do you live? that sucks, my friend, the real father sounds like a serious dick if he's not there, but on the other hand its not your "crush's" responsibility to be there, he might be freak out by the whole baby coming out of the pleasured hole thing. but atleast your mom was there!

YDI for getting pregnant and not being in a stable relationship. I don't even give a damn about you, I care about the shitty life that baby is going to undoubtedly have. Why can't we get rid of pathetic pieces of human scum like you?

if he's the father then yeah, that sucks, but if he isn't the father then why would he want to be there??

YDI for being a hoe. It's one thing to get knocked up and have a guy ditch you. If that were the case, then FYL, but it's another when you're interested in someone else and putting that responsibility of being with you while you're in labor. It's not his problem that you were too irresponsible to practice safe sex. I would've gotten it aborted if I was your age (from the sound of your post I'm guessing "tween-y") because obviously you're not going to be able to support it and the baby isn't going to have a good life.

best/ friend crush...? if you're in labor, you should be worried about more than some guy coming to you. especially if you're pregnant and alone. nice job.

#248 "She did take birth control pills but she was a party girl so she smoked." What is this supposed to mean? Are you trying to say that smoking negates the contraceptive pill? This isn't something I've ever heard of, and I'm pretty sure it would be mentioned on the insert to the pill box. Regardless, this girl you know was stupid for not insisting that he wear condoms. If he was that intractable on the issue, she should have dumped him for having such disrespect for her. Pregnancy is not the only issue, he could have given her some disease too. This is meaningless however. A single counter-example means nothing compared to the statistics, and the vast majority of the time these situations lead to ****** up people. Yes there are occasional success stories but for each success there are hundreds or thousands of failures. Chances are, this is going to be another one of them.

WTF. I wish the author of the FML would come out and set things straight and say something like "I'm a 72 year old woman and I refer to my hubby as my 'crush' to feel young again blah blah derp derp." But I doubt that's gonna happen :/

wait. you just said that he replied "I can't". how the hell did you know what he was doing? and i agree with a bunch of others when they said you shouldn't worry about your "crush" at that point. #260: what the **** is wrong with you? nothing says she's a teen, and nothing says the baby be supported and have a good life. you're just being an assuming jackass. also, safe sex isn't 100% effective. the only thing that is is abstinence. get your facts straight. also, maybe she had the baby with her husband who then left her. learn to not be a douchebag. #262: smoking can render the pill ineffective.
