I HATE lying men rant

I am 7 weeks pregnant with my first baby. The father cheated on me and abused me and then left. Recently I met this great guy. Starts talking things were getting serious and I catch him cheating!!! UGH!!! I'm done with men. That is all.

So far, I haven't heard evidence of you dating an actual man. Have your child, get an education, and hopefully by then you will have figured out why you keep attracting woman-beaters and general losers, and THEN you might actually be able to find and hang on to a real man. Stop blaming everyone with a penis for your problems.

Suddenly, I'm left wondering whether or not the "great guy" you met and got "serious" with (a mere 7 weeks after conceiving a child with someone else) knew you were pregnant ...

I know, I know. I'm a horrible, judgmental person. Or whatever.

Love this lady .

Take care of yourself and your future child. Give it some time, get your life with child established.
You are young and as hard as it is to do it all alone, you need to. You must not rush into the arms of some less than worthy man, just to give your child a father figure.

Lean on your parents, siblings, friends
Study hard and do well.
Take care of your child.

I wish I could find a man to use for just sex. They always get attached.

Anywho, there ARE a lot of cheaters out there, but I have found some good ones along the way. It just didn't work out for other reasons. But given 18 year old boys, MOST are not anywhere near ready to settle down or become fathers.

You should definitely focus on yourself and your baby. There's a lot to still learn about yourself, and perhaps, your choice in men. If I was still my 18 year old self, I'd be drooling over the headless six pack abs guys on MFP. Now? Give me a hot nerdy guy, and I'll rock his world. :laugh:

I think you should focus on yourself - you and the health of your baby

The truth hurts, this kid is going to hurt big time when he/she sees their buddies with their dads.. a father is important in a child's life you're a fool to say otherwise.

Okay, I guess I'm a fool. Or I know MANY people who grew up in single-parent households and they are perfectly normal, wonderful people. I'm not saying that a father figure isn't beneficial, but it is not necessary to have a good upbringing.

I had my friggin tubes tied and got pregnant! So nothing is 100%
