Due in 10 days, father wants to breakup?
Ladies, I need help. I am 18, I graduate high school in May. I am pregnant with a little girl, who is due March 11th. The father will be 21 in June, and graduates college next year. We have been together this whole pregnancy, although we were only together a month before getting pregnant. He recently moved out and got an apartment. He was living with me in my moms house. That was a huge bump I had to get over. But yesterday, he said he’s not sure what he wants. He keeps calling me baby, and telling me he loves me, telling me that’s it’s not that he doesn’t want to me with ME he just doesn’t want a relationship at all. This has completely hurt me, and I have been kind of throwing myself on him. I just mean, being very emotional and calling and texting often trying to get some answers. I am young, and terrified. Being a mom at a young age is scary, much scarier when the dad walks out of your life only 10 days before she’s due. Ladies, if I wasn’t pregnant I wouldn’t hesitate to leave. I deserve a man who knows he wants me. But I am pregnant, and I so desperately want an all together family that I don’t know what to do. Should I give him space? What happens when I go into labor? Is he just scared, and he’ll change when he finally sees his daughter? He definitely wants to be a part of her life, told me he plans on filing for joint custody, which I’m also terrified about. But on the other hand, he says he doesn’t mind me calling him. Says he wants to still hang out and talk to me.. but why not just be together then? We’ve been talking about breaking up for the past couple days. He still hasn’t made up his mind. Please don’t be critical, this is a big deal for me. Thank you for reading this far, all advice will help.
UPDATE: this is how our conversation is going so far today. Kinda mind blown at his last txt. Thinking I’m not going to reply, unless someone has a better idea!
