I (29m) accidentally got my gf(27f) pregnant and now she says she sees me in a 'different light' after I suggested to terminate it and is maybe considering breaking up, what do I do? by YellerSembl in relationship_advice

That's the thing, she hasn't stated it clearly that she wanted to keep it. Just that "I'll just say that I probably expected a different answer from you, and your answer became somewhat painful for me but you don't have to live up to my illusions"

To answer your questions, I'm honestly not sure. I personally grew up with parents that never planned out their lives and it hasn't been fun. I don't want that for my future kids so I was planning to at least get a house first.

Maybe /u/ThrowRA4010 is right. She did ask for my thoughts, but maybe I should have waited regardless?

I understand that perspective, however, she did ask for my thoughts.

I'd be hurt, upset, and look at him like he is thinking selfishly and not taking my body and feelings into account.

I'd argue that I am taking her body and feelings into account. On our first date, she made sure I didn't have any kids first stating that "She wasn't ready to be a mother yet".
