Don't get me wrong I love this forum, even though I don't feel quite accepted yet. However, I didn't expect the variety in personalities. I'm not closed minded in any sense, but for some reason I was surprised by the overall "wholesomeness" in the forum. I don't know any pregnant teens other than myself so I very stupidly assumed that all pregnant teens must be similar to me. After joining this forum i've learned that isn't the case at all. I read all the posts and you're all wonderful people, I feel like i'm somehow "the bad one". I see a lot of you post your relationship stories... So here's mine:
i'm what can only be medically described as a nymphomanic. I've only been involved in one exclusive relationship and it only lasted about four months. I was 16, he was 28, and for about a month of that he was in jail. During the relationship I began another torid affair, but with drugs. Ever since the end of that not so blessed union i've had relationships with men and women that involved nothing but sex.
I actually calmed down a little and narrowed the amount of partners I had to two men who happened to be best friends. They knew about it, and one of them even had a girlfriend, so it was really no big deal. I basically stopped having sex with the guy who had the girlfriend, got clean and sober and narrowed the field to one. When he moved to california I decided to settle down and work on becoming a productive member of society. Then I found out I was pregnant.
I've managed to stay sober and I have a much more modest sex life. I'm not worried about ever slipping back into drugs and I want to be the best mother I can be. My pregnancy is wonderfully normal and maybe even the best thing that ever happened to me. It made me straighten up and i'm going to start taking college courses this upcoming spring.
My biggest worry is how involved the father is going to be. He's nothing at all like I ever was, but he is on the immature side. He's excited about the baby and he says he wants to be involved, but I don't know how much I believe that. He can't hold a job and he changes when he's moving back here constantly. I have a feeling like he's going to miss the birth altogether.
Well that's my story so far even though I have a feeling that I will regret posting it. I basically hoping to be accepted as a changed woman and not judged.
