Hi, I'm in a predicament I thought I would never find myself in and would like your advice on the situation.
Im 21 and have been dating this girl for 4 months, she is also 21. A month ago she told me she was pregnant and it was from a guy that she had a one night stand with she didn't?t use protection...
She rang the guy to let him know and he wasn?t bothered at all, she was ok about the situation explaining to me that she doesn't?t accept him as a responsible father figure anyway and doesent want to have anything to do with him.
Her mother and father are deeply religious (Christians) and was completely shocked (as your would be) but the father was understandably angry for a few weeks but have come to accept it.
I have told her how I feel about the situation, I have never wanted kids but that doesn't?t mean I don?t like them. The thing is if the child was mine I would have no problems, I would support her all the way; but I feel when the baby is born I shall never be as attached to it as I would be if it were mine. I'm only 21 still a baby

, things where starting to go brilliantly for me; finished my Diploma last year and got a fantastic job that pays well and now this is thrown at me.
I have told my father and mother about the situation and they will support me whatever action I take. The thing is if I was reading this 5 months ago I would have said "Move on man, plenty of fish in the sea" but I'm very attached to her and in my heart I'm a big softie and would never want to hurt her.
Thanks for taking the time to read this long post, any advice would help me sleep better than I currently am.
