My friend was actually my ex, but we only were in a relationship for a short time so it wasn't a big deal. He has been in a relationship with this girl for years. They had a long distance relationship, but they are from the same country. When the girl visit his province, they did it, but there was an accident(as he called it) and she got pregnant. He doesn't have a job and he didn't finish school, because he is rather stubborn and rebellious. He is from a broken family so he's kind of lost. When my Boyfriend asked him if he considers the child an angel, he just scoffed. He never wanted the child. Now he has more problems to think about. He's a father, but his mind is still that of a rebellious teenager. I hope he ends up becoming a good dad and husband anyway.

That sounds like my sister-in-laws boyfriend. He isn't ready for a baby and they have one now. He is rarely around the little guy and my sister-in-law lives with her boyfriend. He wasn't around for the pregnancy and has told my sister-in-law to get an abortion since he didn't want a kid and he was 19 years old. Too bad you made the bed so you must lay in it.

Woah, what a jerk. And to think there are so many of them out there. They might promise love before in the relationship but when it comes to real responsibility, they chicken out!

Hi friend, so this news don't give any happiness to him, as you mentioned he was your ex, does this news affected you a little bit? as he was your previous boy friend and it is really hard to forget about the moments which you spent with him, now he is the man of another girl as well as he made her to be pregnant. Still he don't get any maturity and not interested in getting responsibilities, really it is hard to live with this kind of persons

I can give him advice but we don't see each other and we don't communicate much. I really feel no obligation towards my ex. Some things he just has to learn on his own and with a stubborn guy like him, he will have to learn them the hard way. My boyfriend completely resented how my ex looked at his baby as some sort of spawn from hell instead of an angel.

I don't have feelings for him any more. we didn't last that long as girl friend and boyfriend but we were close friends for a year but he suddenly blocked me out for his life for no apparent reason. Shows how defensive he really is and he's very secretive too. that's how I am with my exes. I'm just surprised that he is a dad and that he got her pregnant when they have a long distance relationship haha. He's not happy, he's clearly in deep trouble because of it and he's looking for solutions i hope. THe future for them will be full of difficult trials, I just hope they can get through it all and raise the child well. It's really the child that I'm worried about not him hehe

That is one huge mistake that he will regret in his life if he doesn't stand up and learn to take the responsibility as a father to that child. The child did not ask to be born. If he was just thinking straight, then this whole thing wouldn't have happened, right? Being the happy go lucky teenager that he is will lead him nowhere.

He shouldn't let it out on the child or his girlfriend, he ought to blame himself for being such a d=ck. And it is as you say, he should learn to take responsibility.

First of all: the title of your disusion is completely different from what you write. Secondly: I feel pity for the girl/mother of the child but this was her choice as well. The choice to have a (long distance) relationship with a lost stubborn rebellious person. I assume they still have a long distance relationship? Hoping he will be a good father and husband one day is an illusion. I think this mother can better go her own way and raise the kid alone or find someone else to help her out. BTW I find it a cheap excuse to say he is from a broken family. Plenty of people are and they don't show a behaviour like his. This is just looking for some excuses and I wonder why you are still friends with a person with the kind of behavour/character as you describe. He doesn't fit into the profile of a friend at all. I hope this terrible person will stay out of the life of the kid forever. People like that, who do NOT want a child, should not show up later, in 20 or 40 years crying and whimping because they are old and lonesome and feel so sorry and now suddenly want to be the great dad! I hope he will get what he deserves and he will not be able to spoil the life of the mother of his child plus his child!

Ah, wakeupkitty, always the fiery one. hehe, but i appreciate it. And I agree with you. First: I couldn't think of a better title LOL second: They are still in a long relationship yes, because the girl only stayed in the guys city for a few days then returned to her home and got a souvenir! Yes, I know that is an illusion. But he can change and I believe that, that is if he wakes up. Though there is low probability of that, you can not deny the possibility either. And yes, it's a cheap excuse that he's from a broken family and a shame even more that he let it affect him(even though he tries his best to deny it). But then I added that in order to inform people how broken families can twist a person so much that he'd behave irresponsibly. Plus, he is not a very close friend of mine. In fact, I only knew about it last month when he got the girl friend pregnant since february. And I am not proud of what he has done but i consider him a friend, because he needed one especially at a time when he is in big trouble though we never see each other very often. he's a very closed up guy who hardly speaks his secrets to anyone, much less to me. And I don't blame you for your reaction either. If I were in your place, i would say the same things. But you don't know what the guy has gone through so it's really easy to pre judge. And I already feel sorry for the child, that's why i can only hope that things will go well for this family.

If you are talking about a better girl who can't get herself pregnant, then I know of one imaginary girlfriend you can use LOL But really, if people want to avoid this so called accident, then they should practice safety. It takes both effort from both partners, not just the girl. If the accident happens, it's both the girl and boy's fault.

Both of the parents lives will change drastically because of this. I can understand him being upset but hopefully he does the right thing and takes care of the babies needs. Accidents do happen and its our responsibility to take care of the problems when the accidents happen. Maybe once he sees his baby he will feel different.

Your ex is a player, he got this girl pregnant after a year of relationship, you should count it a blessing that it is not you that was played by him and got pregnant. He need to finish his school, and get a job, then he will not have so much free time in hand to go around try to inseminate his genes into all these girls he make friend with. Your well wishes on him may well go down the drain if he continue to live his life with no job and no education. it is just hard to see miracle from happening on someone like him unless he is willing to change himself for the best of everyone.

No, he's not really a player. We weren't together as a couple for a long time. actually he ignored me after we became girlfriend and boyfriend. i think he was insanely jealous with another guy in class who actually became my boyfriend later on. I think he loves the girl because they have been together for almost 6 years. They have been in a long distance relationship so when the girl came to his city them couldn't stop themselves LOL

Well, it is not amazing already because it is common to our teenagers nowadays...the worst thing is that, they have to face the consequences of raising the child...

The worst is that they won't be able to stay together as family and the child will not be raised well.

Wish he will come to think about his responsibility or else the innocent baby will suffer the consequences. Accidental?- duh, what if the child will say the same thing?

What if he forces her to abort?.The baby is going to pay the price for his parents's misdeeds?
@Aja103654 (5646)

I don't think so. The baby is almost due. If he wanted to abort the baby he would have done it long ago.

I don't think it is an accident. He should take the responsibility and be a man. The unborn child will be the chance for him to prove he is worth it. Good day!

Very well said. He knew the consequences of what he has done. If he isn't ready, he should have just avoided doing it. But he's weak against temptation, so he should make up for it.

I hope your friend/ex does shape up and become a good dad and less like a teenager. some men have problems doing that and are not in there kids lives at all. i hope it all works out

If only they could learn becoming a dad first than learning how to do s-x. That would make things a whole lot better!
