athoosindarkness - September 1

I’m 23 and my life has become way to complicated within a matter of months. Im faced with a number of decisions that only I can decide. My x and I where living together a year. He’s 33 divorced with 2 kids and I was ok with it all. I hung out with his kids a lot ( I miss them). We really didn’t have any problems. We never had any big arguments or issues. It came as a huge shock to me out of the blue he said you don’t understand me or my kids and its over. Then he confessed that he was seeing someone else, someone his own age w/ a kid too. She was a woman from his work and I didn’t suspect anything was between them. They where having play dates for there kids for about a month. I guess it wasn’t just the kids that where playing. I found out that I was pregnant the day after he dumped me for this other woman. We planed this baby...he would tell me how much he wanted to start a family with me and plan a future. That’s the part that hurts the most... like why would you lie to someone and even try to have one if you don’t really want to be with them? It was his idea too. I’ve had a lot of big plans for my life and this wasn’t the way I wanted to have a child. I’m 11 weeks and I moved back home to NY(I was living in Seattle) I have no job, no car , no insurance, I dropped out of school, and my mom is kicking me out in a week. I have no support from my family what so ever they think Im stupid and well I think Im stupid too. I’m rely struggling with what to do. My family says just get an abortion, but we all know that is ezer said than done and I know I cant support this child. To make matters more stressful my x whose living with this woman keeps telling me to come back He will make things better between us. I just don’t know what to do and looking to anyone for advice.

Im not sure what advice i can give you. im not sure what kind of support the states has, but im thinking there is a social services/human resourse that you can go to and apply. they help with a place to live and give you a monthly income untill you stable with work, but with a baby coming that changes. They will support you and the baby. How old is the boyfriend, you said he found someone his own age. He is living with this other woman now and told you to move back and hed make things better...how, by moving you in with them? im not sure what to say about him, you can decide that one with your gut. But for support there are options for you. look in the blue pages under human resources.

Why on earth would your family think you're stupid? You're in NO way stupid! Don't even listen to that. What you should do is go to your local county a__sistance office and talk to them. They have forms you can fill out to get housing a__sistance, food stamps, cash a__sistance, medicaid, and some places even give you a car. You can also get on WIC and that will help with some of the food and the baby's formula as well. Do you have any friends nearby that you can talk to? Also... I have something that might help with your money situation, but it takes work. Email me at getfour@gmail.com if you're interested. (To give you some background on me. I'm 24 years old. My ex and I broke up when I was 4 months pregnant, 3 months later he got engaged to a girl he met a month before we broke up. He didn't come around until our daughter was 8 months old. She's 13 months now. He sees her almost every day but there is no way I would ever consider getting back with him.. he dumped his fiance).
