Abandoned

Nearly 2 months ago I found out I was pregnant. My partner and I have been on and off for 1.5 years after a 2 year relationship. Together we made the decision that I wasn’t going to have it. Not a decision made lightly. A few days later he abandoned me, wouldn’t return my calls or messages and blocked my number. I went through this stressful time on my own without his support. I can’t understand what I have done to be treated like this. I pretend to be okay but deep down in falling into a deep
Depression where I don’t think I’ll ever get over it and feel better.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can overcome this.

Hi Fearless, welcome

There are some situations with people that "time" is the only healer along with some avenues of discussion like here and therapy.

You cant force his actions of abandonment but you cant look on the bright side...at the end of the day he didnt prove worthy of you. To find out the hard way is better than realising years later.

22 years ago my first marriage failed. My anger is still present. Luckily I remarried and she was my ex wifes sister in law who, knew very well the problems within the family we married into. So we sometimes talk about it and in effect, have our own therapy sessions.

So you might take a long time to recover. While doing so, go and socialise, enjoy life and be happy that...it could have been so much worse. You deserve better.

Attend your Dr with your depression.

I hope that helps.

oh very sorry to hear that. I think he doesnot want committment & problems. I think you should talk to someone in your family who can assist you with your decision with the pregnancy. Atlest someone you know can help you out. I know how you feel, its very heartbreaking to know you have been left alone to fight that situation.

Talk to your GP also of your situation and they might give you advise.

Cheers Jessie
