Wait - who's the real idiot in this thread besides you (hint - he started the thread).?

Why should I feel sorry for some irresponsible kid?

Wow. Rhetorical question...if this happens how do you know its yours?? Like, if you have doubts, how do you go about finding out without confronting her about it?

of course he is not going to do that! honestly, i would consider either aborting if she pro-choice, or have her give birth and put the child up for adoption or give it to a firehouse, i hear they will put it in an orphanage. this is only if you are not ready to have a child. if you are looking towards a future with a child, congrats and the best of luck to you!

I'm sorry, but I have no sympathy. It's nobodys fault but your own.

My girlfriend and I played with the odds for the first 4 months we were active that way, and we got lucky. Some don't get so lucky.

Get her on the pill.. Now.

I think if you want anything close to the answer you were hoping(although here I still tend to doubt you'll find it) you really need to post the additional information that really gives us more of the situation. EX: using condoms or no.
Just a thought.

Other than that, your situation sucks, I hope you can find something to resolve it for the best.
Good Luck.

there is always abortion, its better to do it now than raising a kid when you are not ready to, which can turn out to be a pretty sh!tty life for the kid growing up and yourself.

Ouch...not fun. I'm sure a few of us have gone through these worries before. I was going insane for about 3-5 days twice in my last relationship (always protected...damn her being irregular :))

Good luck man, one way or another. And do the right thing, depending on how it turns out.

this is the time to talk and figure things out.
Let her know that if she wants to keep the baby she is screwing up her life and yours too. I assume she is under 18, which could cause you some "legal" trouble depending on the state you live in. If she keeps the baby is she raising it herself or giving it up for adoption?
If she doesnt want to keep teh baby then you should make an appt with planned parenthood and figure things out. If sheh is in the first tri semester you can abort it relatively safely. It costs a bit of money but in the long run aborting is a lot cheaper to do than paying for 18 yrs of childsupport.
Remember sex is great when you are getting, a pain when something goes wrong.

After all is said and done you might want to purchase some condoms.

If you and your girlfriend are monogamous and have had no previous partners (or both of you have have been tested for stds) you might want to try the Naturalamb ones.

abortion is always good. if you are gonna raise this kid and you are not ready, this kid will come out messed up. do you want him/her to have such a bad childhood? if anything, everyone should cherish his/her childhood because it should be a memorable one. think about it, it's not too late to turn to outside help if you can't talk to your parents.
