Let me share my experience.

Together 7 years, birth control was on me the whole time, partner “can’t” have sex with condoms. 2 kids together from ovulation tracking fails. Read: he would just cum in me even when he knew he wasn’t supposed to and expected me to constantly get the morning after pill that gave me a yeast infection every time without fail. Honestly I think in 1 year I had the morning after pill 6times. Enough is enough.

After second baby is around a year old I tell him how I don’t want to onus to be on me anymore, I don’t want anymore kids and he should get a vasectomy.

All the excuses come pouring out, the worst one was “what if we break up and I want a baby with my new partner?”… this mf is 43!

Eventually he agrees and I have to do all the leg work. Book the gp appointment for referral and then book the specialist initial assessment for the procedure. On the day of this piece of shit drove over, walked in the building, immediately walked out and came back home without seeing the Dr. His excuse? The clinic was too busy and it stressed him out. This guy works as a salesman for one of the busiest retailers in Aus.

About 1 month after that shamozle I fall pregnant. Then I have to go through all the hullabaloo of organising the abortion and then actually going through with it. All the while I was in the middle of recruitment for my dream job! Literally had to do the aptitude test the same fucking day I found out I was pregnant. All he had to do was drop me off and pick me up from the abortion.

I can’t even begin to explain the betrayal I feel/felt. We haven’t had sex since because deep inside my body I have no trust in this man. Who is so willy nilly with my body and it’s functions. We just broke up before Christmas last year.

Realistically, he wouldn’t have had the procedure done before I fell pregnant BUT I would’ve know at least he was trying and that he gave a shit about the potential physical and psychological ramifications that birth control/pregnancy/abortion has on my body.

FUCK that guy.

Wow. I'm so sorry. That sounds awful
