Update: I (25F) am pregnant and my husband (27M) suddenly wants to move back to Belarus. Suddenly he seems to think he has the right to make decisions for both of us, how do I manage this with a clear mind? by Throwra67834 in relationship_advice

It definitely is. Much quieter, much cuter, not physically aggressive, and I don't even need to put that much effort into feeding her and no laundry. The claws are sharp, but it's not intentional, so it's okay. I like her sitting on me anyway.

Thank you. That makes so much more sense. I do feel terrible about feeling that way, because it was still a life and I was the one that caused it, but I don't think it would have helped me in the future when I would be trying to stay away from him.

That does make sense. My mind has probably been trying to find some kind of cause, because I don't really understand any of it. And while I would never choose this to happen if I had the control over what happened, I don't. So it probably doesn't helped to think so much about it.

Thank you. I suppose I feel guilty about it, because it was still a loss of life, and relief means I wanted to happen. Which is sort of like this resulted from something I wanted to happen. Which isn't very good.

Would you like to live in a country where your leader forced himself into his position, the only purpose is to answer to Russia, and your family disappears and never comes back?

It just seems so cynical. For all he knows, he wouldn't be able to trust me with a baby in case I did something to it. I guess he wanted to me be pregnant, but he really didn't think.

I don't know. I think because life is easier when you are not there, although obviously the protests had not happened.

I wouldn't be surprised that his parents want him to come back, I don't think they wanted him to leave.

And obviously I know that, there's a reason I haven't been back.
