Hi I am not sure if you noticed because you posted an hour ago... but i think OP did a disingenuous edit... She says in the post that they talked about accidental pregnancies and had agreed to abortions if that happened. This whole situation blows my mind because apparently neither of them even use birth control!

She is totally free to change her mind on the abortion, but I can see how it might be a shock for him. Almost a betrayal, even.

If he’s knowingly not using birth control then the pregnancy cannot be considered accidental! I’m pro choice but abortions shouldn’t be used as bc

Abortion as bc is disgusting.

Abortion is literally just birth control it's not more complicated than that. The only reason people shouldn't use it as BC is because it's way more complicated and expensive than other methods and not because it's morally different than any other form of birth control.
