My fiancé and I recently separated. We had an argument and it got out of hand and he put his hands on me. Badly. I love the man very much, am madly in love with him, but I won’t be going back to him. I am pregnant with his child. I’ve chosen to stay civil and forgive him but lie boundaries down. We’ve talked since then, he’s very sorry, we both agree our relationship is over and we just need to stay friends.

My parents are mad I didn’t get a PO, didn’t press charges, and are talking to him.

I’m pregnant with his child. Yes he did a horrible thing, but he’s agreeing to get help. He’s agreeing to better himself and knows he messed up. I want to coparent for my babies. We aren’t getting back together, but I see no point in having a lot of animosity towards someone I’ll be having a child with and dealing with for the rest of my lifetime.

Am i wrong?
