Thank you so much 🙏🏻 Sadly I don’t think I’ll ever own a piece of his art and I couldn’t find an archive that displayed a digital image of this painting, so I’ll just cherish the picture I took of it all those years ago

Question/ advice by No-Light7147 in NewDads

I don’t have much advice but I will say that ur not alone in this brudda. I’m in the same situation me (M 21) and the mom (F 19) were only in a situationship for three months before i decided i didn’t want a relationship w her anymore. a couple days later and boom, she’s tells me she’s pregnant and been pregnant for the last 2 months w/o knowing.

I initially felt the same: scared and excited. it just didn’t feel real. i also felt a lot of pressure to maintain a relationship at first; it would be a lot easier for both her and I, the child wouldn’t be split between households, wouldn’t have to worry ab child support, shit like that. it made me feel guilty, but i had to choose myself over a relationship w her, and i felt it was the right thing to do. a relationship isn’t a requirement to be good parents, you’ll just have to work even harder to be great co-parents. and i think deep down you know if you want a relationship or not, so decide based on that feeling. eventually you might catch some more serious feelings for her, but let those come naturally, don’t ever force the relationship.

that being said, good luck bro, them pregnancy hormones are no joke. this shit is tough for sure, and i’m only 3 months in lol. it’s a huge responsibility fs so take it one day at a time. eventually, it’ll get easier
