Today, my boyfriend kicked me out and threatened to get a restraining order after I called him an asshole. I'm 16 weeks pregnant and over 1,000 miles away from my parents' house. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, it's been a week since my girl told me she's pregnant and I fled town in a panic. I realized how badly I fucked up and called her, begging to come back. When I showed up at her house, her brothers kicked my ass and threw me in the street, promising to wring me dry for child support. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years completely lost it because last night I told him I wanted to move to a less remote area so I can be independent. He shouted that I bring no money in, he has to do everything, and that I that I snore so loud he can hear me from downstairs where he sleeps. I'm pregnant. We are in our 40s. FML
Today, I announced to my boyfriend of 5 years that I was pregnant. He gave me an ultimatum. Either I "get rid of it" because he’s "not ready to be a dad" or he’ll "put me out on the streets." I’m unemployed and have nowhere to go if I keep it. FML
Today, I went to my parents' house after escaping my abusive relationship. My mom scoffed and said, “This is what happens when you move out, barely graduated high school, with a bum.” When I told her I was 3 months pregnant, she said, “And a child out of wedlock? You’re a lost case!” and slammed the door in my face. FML
Today, after my boyfriend ghosted me when he learned I was pregnant, I stormed to his house to tell his wife about us to get back at him. Turns out he gave me a fake address, because the cops were called on me after I screamed at some random woman who lived there. FML
Today, I got pregnant even though I was on birth control. The father is nowhere to be found and I don’t even know his last name. My parents kicked me out of the house because apparently, “I’m an adult, so make adult choices.” I’m too scared to get an abortion. I’m at my wits' end. All due to failed birth control. FML
Today, I had to make the heartbreaking decision to end my engagement after my fiancé agreed to let several of his obnoxious family members move in without even asking me. He says 'family over everything' but what does that make me? To make matters harder, I just found out I’m pregnant. FML
Today, I am pregnant, and my boyfriend dumped me, saying that he didn't want to be stuck in anything too serious. FML
Today, my husband kicked me out because I told him I'm having an abortion. He just doesn't understand that with the way our country is right now, and how bad the economy is, it's just not a good idea to have kids at the present time. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me an ultimatum: either get an abortion, or he’ll move out to go work for his brother, and good luck chasing him up for child support because his brother lives abroad. FML

I know there's two sides to every story, but him doing that to his pregger girlfriend makes him a douchbag by default

Sounds like he deserved much worse than "asshole"

Most guys that walk out/break up during pregnancy are awful 'fathers' (from what I've seen anyway). Even when they've decided with the girl to try to get pregnant. And if not, if the pregnancy was an accident, an abortion can be done untill 12 weeks into the pregnancy. Any later than that it will not be done by a doctor unless it is medically necessary for the mother. But that is a huge decision to make, even if you don't want the child. And if the guy didn't want to be with the girl, why be so easy to sleep with her?! Most guys that break up/walk out during pregnancy can't deal with the changes in their life and want their life to be the way it was before. Free and childless. No responsibility over someone else. Do you really think that guys like that would be 'amazing fathers'? A guy that walks out on a pregnant girl is basically walking out on the kid too, even if the pregnant girl is being a completely unreasonable and superhormonal person. Hormones work like that for a few months, up untill a year and a half. How long is that on a human life? Too long to take care of/deal with someone? Because little kids are quite a bit more work than that. And need more years to be dealt with/taken care of. The only reason why I can agree with a guy walking out on a pregnant girl is when the girl planned to get pregnant without his consent and/or knowledge OR when they were in a relationship but she cheated and got pregnant while doing so.

#29 WE choose to be pregnant??? Maybe you were not paying attention during sex education but it takes TWO people to make a child. It's both the girl AND the guy's responsibility, whether they chose to have unprotected sex or the birth control failed. And yes a couple who conceives a child does not necessary have to stay together BUT they both should take equal charge in caring for the kid. And there is a difference between breaking up with your pregnant girlfriend and kicking her out when she has no family around to assist her. Whatever she’s done, she’s carrying his child and even if she’s bitch, he should think of that baby first. It may be unfair, but that baby is innocent and should be given a chance to develop in a healthy environment. At 4 months, abortion is no longer an option anyway.

Looks like he was looking for an excuse to bail. Unless you had been batshit crazy otherwise you did not deserve to be put out of your home.

A similar thing happen to me I was 7 months pregnant and already had a 2 year old..... Protect your kids at all costs if u don't get out now then u deserve it

You never d

Ok... My phone went nuts. What I was trying to say is no-one ever deserves to be abused. Not getting out doesn't make you deserve to be hurt, it simply shows the flaws in our society. If you know someone who is being abused, help them.

Well, on the bright side if he tries to get a restraining order over that he will get laughed out of court. My best friend couldn't even get a full on restraining order after her ex (and the father of her child) threatened her numerous times and refused to stop harassing her. She BARELY got a no contact order, and all that really says is "hey, it's totally fine if you guys are in the same place, but you can't talk to each other."

Which idiots pressed 'you deserve it'?!

I hit YDI cuz I'm pretty sure she did something more than just call him an asshole. I highly doubt anybody would threaten a restraining order just because of that. Some prego ppl can get violent. Being prego wouldn't give her an excuse if she were
thats_my_job 11
She deserves it anyway for procreating with someone like that. Don't people get to know someone before getting pregnant? 'If' she is innocent and was quietly twiddling her thumbs while he threatened a restraining order then I take back my YDI but I seriously doubt that's the case here.

There's more to this story we don't know. No sane person chucks out or threaten a restraining order on someone for calling them an asshole. Unless he has dementure or something.
kawaiisakura 12
Agreed. I'm wondering if she's been getting violent and blaming the hormones
MEM0817 18
Exactly... No sane person does that. OP's boyfriend could possible have some mental issues he needs to address.

Or it could be OP with the mental issues. We are given a seriously slanted version of events from which people extrapolate and otherwise leap to conclusions as though they're fact.
