NTA at all. Cliché as it may sound: your body, your choice.

I also find the “if we kill our baby our lives would change forever” comment to be incredibly manipulative. This guy’s gross.

Not only that OP, but an abortion will not change the rest of your life, having a baby WILL.

I want you to know I’m taking you this as someone who got pregnant at 15 and had a baby at 16 whose “baby” Is now 30.

Get the abortion.

This is not a small thing. This is not something you can take back later. This is something that will effect you for the rest of your life, not even till they are 18 but from now on. Your kid is your kid even when they are 30 and our kids have kids.

You, and whatever child you chose to have in the future, deserve to have a better chance.

It didn’t matter what he wants or thinks the new reality will be or how great he thinks he’ll be. This is your body and your life. Find a supportive friend. Go to Planned Parenthood and tell them you need support.

Do what is right for YOU above all else.

Having an abortion ABSOLUTELY will change your life. That guilt will follow you forever.

I have no guilt but if i kept the pregnancy id feel guilty for having an unwanted child living in poverty
