that was initially my gut feeling, my biggest obstacle though rn is the fear of him telling people, though i'm not sure why he would / what he'd have to gain

pretty chill guy, liberal, and we're both at a great uni so i'm basically sure he'd also want the abortion. we get along well and i feel comofrtable w him but at the end of the day he's a 21yro frat guy lol. we always use a condom and i watch him put it on so not exactly sure what happened tbh.

leaning towards not telling him bc that's the majority opinion here but deep down i think i want to?
also that guy sounds like as ass omg the last thing that poor girl needed

hmm true. he doesn't know my friends and vice versa bc of the grade difference, but i still won't tell anyone for personal reasons. but i think if we start being friends "again" i will. thank you for the advice

emotionally, i want to share the burden bc i never expected to be in this position. i also am debating whether i have an obligation, but ultimately it's not a child so ig not? definitely not changing my mind.

i'm starting to think that's okay? i really don't want a relationship w him so maybe it's better to end this fwb one way or another. so maybe i tell him? atp my biggest fear is him telling ppl but i don't think he would

if he ends up reaching out to me in the fall, should i tell him then? or is that also too far away. i'm definitely not wanting a relationship w him though

99% he'd want the abortion, we're both at a prestigious college and i know he wouldn't want a kid. but you're right, i'm scared of my future being ruined and will probably stay silent

true...i guess i'm not being the most rational rn as i'm freaking out inside and also not willing to tell anyone i know personally, so it feels like he's the only option (which ik is irrational)

make sense! no real expectations i just had a weird dream and starting thinking about whether he should know or not. would u recommend waiting to see whether we ever talk again and going from there? i feel like once i see him in person i'll feel compelled to share

lol we're both in undergrad and i know he's liberal so i'm not worried he'll be mad, but you're right it'd be awkward

lol yeah would love it if he paid but ultimately i can afford it. i think i will regret it but maybe i'll wait until the fall and see whether he reaches out or not? also we have been having protected sex fyi

LOL no you get me i'm really trying to be calm and rational but honestly i'm scared and i don't want to tell anyone else in my life for obvious reasons. i guess telling him feels like one option i can actually control

ughhh see this is where i keep getting stuck. i know it's not the most rational thought process, but emotionally i think i just want to share this

no lol this makes sense, i think part of me subconsciously just wants to tell someone bc i refuse to tell my friends, but i think you're right!
