Question
am not sure where to start. I was dating this guy for on and on 2 years. We didn't have the best relationship but I really loved him. Well about 2 months ago me and him broke up. Probably 3 weeks after we broke up I found out I was pregnant and have been pregnant for 2 months before we broke up. Well we have been messing around since we broke up which was June 10th. He told me that he broke up with me because we want working out but month before we broke up he had a girl at his house that was married. Well as soon as we broke-up they were hanging around more and then all the sudden they are dating. Her husband found out that she was seeing my ex's and walked out on here and ask for a divorce. Well about a month ago my ex's got an acceptance letter to wake forest and him and this new girl are moving up there together and leaving me behind. He tell me he wants something to do with his baby. My question is how can I get him back. I want to be a family. I don't think she deserves him and if I can't have him back how can I get over him. I am tired of crying all the time. I am not happy and I just want to be. Please help me


Answer
Dear Shannon,
I apologize, but I got your question out of the question pool so today is the first day that I saw it.  You can't make him come back.  He has made a decision and now you have to prepare yourself for the baby.  If he wants to be a part of the baby's life - great... if not then you need to take the appropriate steps to get some financial support.  Well, she may not deserve him, but HE DOESN'T deserve you..... It's okay to cry and you are going to throughout your pregnancy because you are sad and your hormones are all over the place.... Time heals all wounds, but taking care of yourself and giving your child the best possible life is the greatest gift in the world..... Good Luck and Warmest Wishes, Erica
