Partner wants me to abort

Louiselouxo · 08/11/2025 10:20

I’m writing on here because I have no one else to talk to….. I’ve fallen pregnant by accident I’m on the pill so was a complete shock. We have 3 kids (15,11,3) after my youngest we agreed no more. But now I’m in this situation and completely devastated by the thought of an abortion…. Last year I fell pregnant by accident , I put my partners wants above mine and aborted- I changed my pill to a different one to avoid anything happening again. And now I am here :( I don’t want to abort again. It fills me with guilt. I know I will love a child regardless of how they got here but he is threatening to kick me and the kids out, see the child but not me, he just doesn’t want more kids. He is a great guy, a great dad, he treats us all so well so I am shocked at his reaction. I thought he would stick by me….. a part of me think or hopes he will just accept this baby in the end but it’s a huge risk ruining the family we have :( has anyone else been in this and there partner came around? Please no negative comments…. He is not a bad guy, he’s actually lovely. This just wasn’t on the cards

I very much hope you won't be having sex with him again until he's had a vasectomy whatever you choose to do about this pregnancy.

Ooodelally · 08/11/2025 12:30

My god what a vile excuse of a man. He is not a great dad or partner, he’s an abusive piece of shit and the sooner you get away from him the better. People who love you don’t control you by threatening to make your small child homeless. What a bastard.

freakingscared · 08/11/2025 12:54

Don’t do it ! The guilt will never leave you and the resentment towards him will grow so your marriage will prob sou end anyway . He could have had a vasectomy and choose not too

WearyAuldWumman · 08/11/2025 12:56

He IS a bad guy. He's already forced you into one abortion, and yet he hasn't had a vasectomy?

He's evil.

ShenandoahRiver · 08/11/2025 13:02

Your previous thread from March 24 has exactly the same title. You were twisting yourself into a pretzel then to convince yourself that he was a great all round brilliant man. He wasn’t then and isn’t now.

I have, I’ve tried so many time and all he gets back to is he doesn’t want more kids. He agrees abortions awful but having a child for the rest of his life that he doesn’t want isn’t fair on him. All I hear is how he feels or what he wants. He’s being very selfish, I don’t know what to do. I have an abortion appointment booked for Monday but I don’t know if I can do it

Surely the relationship is over regardless if he pushes you into a second abortion? He doesn’t care about you or your kids if he’s happy to bully you and kick you all out. Regardless of what choice you make with the pregnancy you’d have to be a total fool to stay in this relationship, it’s over.

Zempy · 08/11/2025 13:09

I think it’s worth reminding yourself that this man would throw you out on the street with a child that is his but isn’t even yours! What a fucking Prince!

HideousKinky · 08/11/2025 11:02

He cancelled his vasectomy because he was scared, but is trying to force you to have an abortion you do not want, for the 2nd time.

You need to consider very carefully what is right for you

This. Selfish bastards are not great dads! Go with your gut.

NimbleDreamer · 08/11/2025 13:22

Louiselouxo · 08/11/2025 11:12

I am devastated by the situation, I’m very maternal and in an ideal world I’d keep this baby but being a single mum isn’t what I want. I’m trying to hold down full time work, school runs, nirsery runs, run the house and not fall apart, while suffering with sickness! This whole thing feels so rubbish. Is there any posative storries? We’re dad comes round to it :(

Yes but normally those stories involve the dad not being a horrible cunt like your DP is.

NimbleDreamer · 08/11/2025 13:25

ByQuaintAzureWasp · 08/11/2025 11:50

Why hasn't he had the snip? Seems he just wants you to be responsible for family planning then spits his dummy out when it doesn't work/suit him. Its a piece of cake for a man.

Because he's a pathetic manchild who got "scared" about having a vasectomy so cancelled the appointment. Yet he expects OP to keep aborting the kids he is pumping out through no fault of her own and risking her health by having repeated abortions. What a lovely guy.

TryingAgainAgainAgain · 08/11/2025 13:29

He did book the snip then he was scared to do it so cancelled…

God they are pathetic, craven idiots aren't they? So many of them.

Now you've seen this side of him, twice and over a prolonged period, would you not be better off without him? It will be challenging but without such an inadequate prick putting his wants above your needs.

Irritatingalex · 08/11/2025 13:31

He’s threatening to kick you and the kids out, cancelled his vasectomy but pressures you to have two abortions, but you still think he's a lovely guy, a great dad?

user7638490 · 08/11/2025 13:32

I am so sorry. it’s awful to be forced into something you don’t want.
It does sound as though your life is already very complicated though. Regardless of whether he comes round, is it feasible to add a baby into your existing life?
My DH was adamant he couldn’t cope with another, and I was so desperate to have one. It broke my heart at the time, and I can only see years later that it actually would have broken him. I am not defending your DH’s behaviour in any way, although I can see that sometimes an extra child can feel completely overwhelming. Good luck

Then he should have had the snip.

and the fact he can make you homeless is another huge issue why is the house just his?

Lifestooshort71 · 08/11/2025 13:40

If it was me....I'd think very carefully about having an abortion and not dismiss it out of hand (using my head and not my heart). And then I'd think very carefully about what happens next. I'd have the abortion and stay with him, insisting on a vasectomy - but that's my view and not necessarily yours (I'd be a hopeless single mum and would think, rightly or wrongly, this would be best for the children). Good luck with whatever you decide x

Branleuse · 08/11/2025 13:43

Id be telling him that he is a massive prick for pulling this stunt on you again. What the fuck is he playing at

patooties · 08/11/2025 13:46

What a prince. What’s the situation if you find yourself single with 3 kids to support?
does he earn enough to support the two children he sired with you and also his existing child? Where is the father to your other child and does he pay child support?
would he want to see the baby if you go ahead or just the one you share together? What about your son he’s step dad to?
It sounds like chaos. Where will you live? How big a house will you need?
can you afford that?
i personally would double terminate (the pregnancy and the relationship)
He is awful, and I just couldn’t want to be with someone so uncaring and selfish.

Pirating55 · 08/11/2025 13:48

By accident...twice. umm okay then

anytipswelcome · 08/11/2025 13:53

He is not a good man or a good dad OP.

He’s a selfish, unkind and irresponsible bully.

His reaction is unforgivable and I don’t know how, regardless of the decision you make re this pregnancy, you will ever be able to share a bed and a life with him again.

Outside9 · 08/11/2025 14:00

Whatever you decide to do (I.e. keep baby or abort), and permanent solution is needed to ensure this doesn't happen again.

Vasectomy, tubal ligation, separation, an IUD. There are alternatives options. This doesn't need to be a repeat issue.

Dancingdance · 08/11/2025 14:02

I think the relationship is over whether or not you keep the child. He’d probably keep the 3 year old at his house as this is his kid and also the kid from his previous relationship. You’ll need to find somewhere to live with your older child and consider whether you should continue the pregnancy.

Very dangerous to move in with a man and have his child without jointly owning the house. Also most ‘accidents’ on the pill are taking it too late.

kittywittyandpretty · 08/11/2025 14:12

He won’t come round
If you want the baby, have the baby
Leave him anyway because he’s an arsehole and decide whether or not you can manage with three children or four on your own

Hes not a lovely guy

ByDenimHedgehog · 08/11/2025 14:16

Your previous threads are quite distressing and I’m not 100% convinced you are actively trying not to get pregnant….. you mention on other posts that you are using the ‘pull out method’ and ‘having sex the day of the abortion’. Gross. Why put yourself in this position?!??

DramaQueenlady · 08/11/2025 10:51

How can he kick you out. Is it only his house. Are the older children his. He is allowed his thoughts and opinions, but he us not allowed to threaten you and your children by making you homeless.

You already have a young child so it not like your going back to the baby stage after years and years. Tell him you're keeping the baby and deal with the fall out from there. Then you'll see if he's a great guy. If he is great, he can go and get a vasectomy too.

He can. They are not married. It’s his house , she has no rights. @Louiselouxohe’s not a great Dad or a great guy if he’s threatening to chuck you out.
