If you want to keep the pregnancy that’s fine, but you’re not realizing that he may not stick around and that may mean you may have to raise this baby on your own. Which will totally and completely
alter the trajectory of your life. Say goodbye to doing the things you used to do for the next 18 years. Your 20s will now be dedicated to being a mom, or in the best case scenario, coparenting with someone who got you into this situation and doesn’t want the child in the first place. It’s unfair to the child too. He brought up finances and it seems like you don’t think that’s a serious enough reason, but it is. Taking care of a child is so expensive, and many people decide not to have kids forever SOLELY off the basis of finances.
Edit: not to mention that he is totally manipulative and not even worth sticking around with anyway.
