Christine W asked:
I’m 18 years old, and 7 months pregnant. I found the love of my life, and my first time having sex, i got pregnant. ( Was on the pill). He has made it clear since the beginning that he does not want this baby. He’s in the Airforce, and is worried about making enough money. Almost went throught an abortion, but couldn’t do it. I moved across country to be with my mom durring the pregnancy, and contacted an adoption agency. I filled everything out over 2 months ago, but I have yet to send them in. I want to keep this little boy of mine, but I do not want to lose the love of my life. Am I being selfish? Everyone including his parents are telling me to keep it, and that he will come around eventually. But i have him telling me, that if i keep it, he will take responsibility but not stay with me. I have only a few days to decide before my insurance runs out, and chosing an adoptive family would help out there. PLEASE HELP!
