Pregnant and dating
Posted: 07-08-08 16:56pm

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.

Trust your own instincts.
