Or.. Maybe hr WAS being an asshole and got mad that she called him on it and wanted to exert dominance and control over her. It's well documented that abusive personalities rear their ugly heads during partners pregnancies. Cheating also usually will first occur during a pregnancy. Since you don't know, let's not assume that the pregnant lady deserved it. You weren't there. Kind of seems like you WANT her to be completely at fault for whatever reason.

And equally you don't know, so why bring up the irrelevant argument that people cheat during pregnancy and suggest that he has 'an abusive personality'? For all we know she called him an asshole because it was 3AM and he didn't want to drive somewhere and pick up a tub of ice cream. I don't know either, so I can't say that is the reason, I just don't think you should attack #16 for bias whilst using a comment which is biased in the other direction. By all means suggest neutrality, but do it neutrally. Also, we're given 2 buttons on this website - YDI or YLS. A lot of this website is based on the idea that we SHOULD just assume some people deserve things that happen to them.

Anyone willimg to leave a significant other out in the cold knowing that they're carrying a child is abusive. He could have told her she had to leave and waited for a ride to get there if she was being that difficult, but decided to leave her stranded. Based on the information given, the "punishment" did not fit the crime.

Also it's much more likely that a grown man would have an "I'll show you" attitude regarding being called an asshole, and try to teach a lesson than actually be so aghast at the word that he'd threaten with a restraining order and throw her on her ass. Which is why I jumped to the abuse conclusion.

I agree that being pregnant isn't an excuse but in my personal experience, guys that point that out ARE the ones that are being assholes, mostly by being dominant, aggresive and/or just plain selfish. They just can not understand that during pregnancy women aren't the same as they were before and that life will not be the same as before, so instead they try to cling to their old life and habits. Which results in the women trying to push the guy to understand and change his life, for the baby and for her. Pregnant women are nesting (preparing the home and family for the baby) and if one aspect isn't right, it has to be changed. If that wasn't the case for you, I am sorry that you have dealt with that pregnant lady because then she was using her pregnancy as an excuse.

Sorry, ladies, being pregnant doesn't give you an excuse to be a bitch. I've known many pregnant woman who were not bitches, more emotional with tears and than rude. However, OPs boyfriend has no right kicking her out when she is pregnant. He should have been the man and got up and left for a little while till things cool down. Just because couples fight, doesn't mean the man is trying to "dominate" the woman. Yes, that is true in some instances but not in all cases. Don't throw your judgment around until you know the whole story. However, OP, you should have sat your sweet, pregnant ass down on the couch and told him to call the police. Legally, he can't kick you out if you reside there; he has to give you so many days to leave.

For all we know we're all being too literal. Kicking someone out could easily mean stopping them living with you - it doesn't have to mean actually forcing them out of your home, so actually he MIGHT have called her a cab or had a friend pick her up. There's also no mention of a time, so it could have been at a reasonable hour. #30 Please link your source for your assertion that a man will have an 'I'll show you attitude'. I assume you do have evidence to support it and you aren't just making it up to add more bias to your opinion that the man must be in the wrong. And in general I'll jump on the bandwagon that comes closest to my view - "being pregnant doesn't give you an excuse to be a bitch" - people treat pregnancy as if it's the most important thing a single person can do. It's necessary to keep humanity going but there's enough of it around that people shouldn't be revered for getting pregnant. Imagine the FML without the mention of pregnancy - "I was kicked out for calling him an asshole. I'm 1000 miles from home with nowhere to go". If this was the FML posted then from previous FMLs I can guarantee there would be a lot more "we don't have the full story - you must have done something else and aren't telling us" in the comments. The fact remains that pregnancy makes you hormonal and you may get bitchy, but it shouldn't be used as this automatic trump card in an argument. Finally, earlier you said 'anyone willing to leave a loved one out in the cold, knowing they're carrying their child is abusive'. This is incorrect. Anyone willing to push her down a flight of stairs is abusive - not wanting to have them around is just rejection.

Really?

16 weeks pregnant isn't soon. 40 weeks is a full term pregnancy so 16 weeks isn't even halfway done. A lot can happen in 40 weeks. We don't even know OP's age, she could be 16 or 45, not that it changes the situation but from what I read I don't think they are really prepared for this.

143- well whatever. Regardless, it was a dick move on his part. You don't just kick a girl out. That's not how you treat a woman.

Whip him into shape, I don't know exactly. It depends on his personality.

It is extreme folly to enter or continue a relationship on the premise that you will be able to change the other person.

Sounds like OP has her hands tied. Hopefully, if it IS his, you can file for alimony when the baby is born. That is, assuming he does just disappear.
