Hi everyone.

I’m currently 6 weeks pregnant. My boyfriend and I came to the decision that I would get an abortion because even though we both do want children, we are just not financially ready or in the position to have a child right now.

I also have very strict parents that i currently live with (I will be moving out in jan), so that would not end well for me if they did find out.

I have planned to do the medical abortion in about a week from now, because my parents are going on a holiday for a couple of days and my boyfriend will be able to be here so we can do it together.

My boyfriend is honestly the sweetest, most caring person and he is always there for me. But recently i feel as though he doesn’t understand the gravity of the situation and he comes off as being insensitive, which i know isn’t his intention.

Today i was telling him how nauseous i’m feeling because i’ve been sick for a while. he then says why don’t i just do the abortion today because my parents will just think that i’m sick so it’ll be fine.

This hurt because the only reason that im waiting to do the abortion is so that he can be there with me because i need his support.

I feel like he’s taking it so lightly. I have spoken to him about it and he said that he apologises and he never wants me to feel like he’s being insensitive.

but i still don’t think he gets it. I don’t know if im just being dramatic or emotional but i feel so alone, like no one understands what im going through, including him.

I have no one to talk to, so any (encouraging pls) advice would be really helpful.
