I'm 23 and my boyfriend is 20. We've been together a relatively short amount of time and over Christmas, I found out that I was pregnant. To start with, my boyfriend was really excited and supportive but now he's completely freaking out about it (mainly because of money) and won't listen to anything I have to say on the matter. He says he wants to be fully responsible for me and the baby if I keep it and not have any support from either of our families; regardless of the fact our families would support us anyway. He says he isn't ready for this and wants to wait at least another 6 months before trying for a baby but the problem is; I never thought I could get pregnant and I really cannot bring myself to have an abortion. I think our relationship could be really good but I know I will resent him if I get rid of this baby and break up with him over it. I already knew I wanted to keep it and I know my friends and family will be there no matter what. I know my boyfriend is scared but he doesn't realise how stressful and upsetting this whole situation is becoming. Just because he isn't ready for a baby and I am, does that make it okay for me to want it? I'm so confused.
