I just found out a week ago that I am
pregnant. I have been dating my boyfriend
for almost 2 months. We have known each
other for one year, only professionally
and recently started dating. He already
has a 2 yr. old from a previous
relationship. He has told me that he will
support me with whatever decision I make.
I want to keep the baby. He has said we
will get married but he is just scared.
Not about having a baby but about our
relationship not working out because we
barely know each other. I am 28 and he is
27, there is no reason why we can't figure
it out. He is a good man and a great
father but I am scared that I will end up
alone. What should I do?

Do you really love this man after 2
months? Is there a reason you'd have to
get married? It all seems like a lot of
pressure to put on a new relationship.
Since you are pregnant and keeping the
baby, then everything else will either
fall into place or it won't.
The world does not end for single parents.
It can be a little more interesting trying
to navigate things ~ but it is not
impossible by any means.
Then again, the relationship may blossom
and be everything you'd ever hoped it
could be. That will take time though.
Relationships take time and patience.
