SUBJECT: Depressed and hating life now...
Hello... I am 23 yrs old and am 7weeks pg with my first child. My b/f of two years and I were inseperable and completely in love. It was the best relationship I had ever been in. Plans of marriage were set to a date even. The only thing that we ever faught over was issues with my jealousy-I had been hurt really badly in a prior relationship and this relationship just seemed to carry over the side effects of my last, unfortuantly. But now, I have been going through mood swings like never before. From extremely happy and content to depressed and angry. My relationship between my b/f and myself has become really depressing in its self. We fight all the time and he can never seem to do right by me anymore. Either he is not giving me enough attention or he is just leaving the house for hours. It seems that he doesn't even want the baby anymore since he has brought up the topic of abortion a couple times. Our sex life was never really great, but now it's got even worse. It's like I am pg now and he want absolutely nothing to do with me sexually anymore. He admits to looking and checking out other women when he goes out- how is that suppose to make me feel. I already feel fatter and uglier since I became pg, and having him ignore me and look at other women and see nothing wrong with it only makes matters worse. He is not supportive at all anymore. It seems that he tries to start fights on anything I say! It seems like an endless battle. Now, I see him on-line "IMing" people that he never IMed before, he wont let me see it, yet says he writes to me yet I never recieve any of them. I don't know what to do. I am just so sick of getting hurt by men and I am so hurt and dissapointed that he isn't as supportive as I thought he'd be when I became pg. Sorry this is so long, but can anyone relate? I am lost and so lonely. I am hating him and life now. Depression is really starting to settle in and I don't know what to do. I'm in shattered pieces right now. All he ever talked about was how much he wanted a baby, now he seems to want nothing else but to be single again... I just can't please him either way. I'd appreciate any advice anyone can offer.
