Open Question: IMy husband wants me to have an abortion, I don’t.?
I am 28 and he is 30. We have been married 5 years and although it was unplanned (happened on the pill) I WAS really excited about the whole thing. I took him out to dinner and gave him a present - pair of his favorite shoes in baby size. He immediately said he wasn't happy about it, that he thought our relationship wasn't strong enough, that our financial situation wasn't stable enough, that he wanted me to have an abortion. I am sooooo disappointed, I really thought he would man up. I even told my mum I was so excited ..... I feel embarrassed, rejected and angry. He seems to think that just because he dosen't want it that I should go along with him because it is the LOGIAL action. I agree it's not ideal timing but I have had an abortion before and I never want to do it again which I have told him on many occasions prior to this. I want to give him a say in the situation, obviously this is his life too but I think he is being immature and insensitive. I already feel like a mum.
