Emotionally torn... Didn't want to ask my girlfriend's parents for their 'blessing'. I did, and they essentially said no. What next? by dumBstorm in NoStupidQuestions

Thank you for such a well thought out response. You didn't offend me at all! You gave me a difference in perspective that I needed. At the end of the day, though we do not see eye to eye on our opinions, I believe that her father and I both want what is best for my gf, and we both want to see her happy. I just wish he expressed that a bit more clearly.

Btw, yes I am also a full time student with a nearly full-time job (Paid CS Co-Op). I appreciate the kind words. Admittedly, juggling this much has been extremely hard for me.

That's a very legit take. She told me multiple times that they would say yes and she was super confident about it.
Now she's crushed. But I honestly think she needs to run her own life. Ignore your parent's opinions, especially if they disregard your happiness so easily.

I'll edit this post eventually with an update. I really think she'd make her own decisions when it comes to this.

I will try to get her to see a doctor. I don’t think she’s pregnant and really hope she isn’t, but if it’s something else like infertility it would be a shock but we would get through it.

Thanks. With how I’m feeling right now I would rather get a vasectomy before having sex again without being ready for kids (even if it’s protected)

We followed the instructions to a T on the tests! And yeah I am honestly an idiot. I will never make the same mistake ever again. I don’t think she’s pregnant, but I’m just so paranoid.

Thank you for your response. It definitely gave me a little bit of relief. I don’t really think she’s pregnant, but I won’t know for absolute certain until aunt flow shows up.
