I am very confused now, my boyfriend and I broke up months ago. Just when I was pregnant already. I was devastated. I knew I had to accept it. But even so, we are friends now. I had to be okay with him for the baby's sake. But now his mom encourages me to get back to his son. Just after the hurt and all. I knew my ex-boyfriend is not up for it anyway. I dont want to sound rude but I told his mom that it's his son's choice not mine. I am honest with myself, I still love my ex. But for me, I dont want to get in to the relationship again just because the parents want us to. The feeling should be mutual between us. If you are in my place what could be the best thing to do? I dont want to be a single mom, too and having my boyfriend back is a good thing for me. But isnt it supposed to be my ex-boyfriend's decision?

It's both yours and his decision. If you want him back, good. But if he doesn't want you back, don't push it. Life would be miserable if you share it with someone who never wanted you from the very beginning.

He leave you the moment he needed you most.Whatever his reasons are, for me its a sign that he is not the man for you!He needs to mature first!! Its not also good that you will listen to him mom, its wonderful that his family likes and loves you but the bottomline here is you and that guy! If he didnt show any interest to work that relationship back it means he is not ready to be committed yet and to tackle the responsibility! You will just suffer if you will decide to come back..But you know better the guy, so the decision will still be up to you!
You're still young and if ever you dont mean to each other, I know you will still meet your right man in the future!

Hi shynie!
Sorry for getting in on this late.
You're right getting back together should be you and your boyfriend's decision.
Having a baby is serious, and doing it alone is not easy.
I dont think anyone just decides to be a single mom,that's just how it ends up sometimes.
As i know you've already had the baby,i can only hope that he's playing a role in his son's life, and if you do end up a single mom, at least your child has a father he can depend on.
I'm wishing the best for you on this new journey called motherhood. {{{HUGS}}}
