My ex once tried to be "funny" and say that she was pregnant (even though I'm refraining from sex until marriage), but in that moment, I freaked out.
After a couple moments have passed (and as she kept playing along), I tried to see what I could do for her. She already knew I'd be the best father ever if a kid ever did come along.
If she was telling the truth, I'd support her and be there for her throughout absolutely everything. I'd support her personally, financially, and any other possible way. I'd just try to "mature up" if you understand what I mean by that15 Reply- +1 y
She told you she was pregnant but you've never had sex?

There was a situation where I came and I thought it got on my fingers after I cleaned up and then I fingered her. (Sorry, this is really weird for me to talk about). We weren't knowledgeable in the fact that sperm can't last long out in the open air. I even washed my hands with soap and water as I cleaned up, but at the time I just had this feeling that "I didn't get rid of all of the sperm". Talk about being uneducated.
See, also the thing was that her period was 2 weeks late and it was rarely late. The stress that this caused on her and I delayed it, but the day it did come, that's when she said that she was pregnant just to see what my reaction was. - +1 y
Ah I did mean to make you uncomfortable :( I'm sorry.

I am not sure any guy can answer that with 100% honesty. It is almost like asking what would you do if you got shot at. Most people have never been in that situation and it is hard to tell if you can keep your calm or if you would freak out.
With her other health problems a pregnancy would probably kill my girlfriend so it would be really bad in the event that our precautions failed. That is why I am looking into getting a vasectomy.120 Reply
+1 yI'm ot a guy but I think they just should support her whatever the choice she makes (abortion or keep the baby). If she chooses to keep the baby the boy should take care of him and help the girl but if he doesn't love the girl, he shouldn't feel forced to marry her

+1 yIt is a topic I am passionate about as my mother had me at 15. I think if I accidentally got a girl pregnant, my first instinct would be to beg her not to have an abortion since I would never be able to live with myself knowing that my child was murdered. I have no respect whatsoever for men who abandon their children or try to convince the female to get an abortion.
Assuming she took my advice and decided to keep it, I would propose marriage solely for the sake of the child. I would feel that it is the best thing to do since children who grow up in that arrangement have it easiest. Would it suck for us? Probably. But our interests are irrelevant now to the interests of the child whom we have a duty to raise.
If she didn't want that, then I would beg her to give me full custody of the baby after its birth so that I could raise it as a single dad. I wouldn't hold her accountable to child support or anything.30 Reply
+1 yI would help her through her pregnancy and would offer her financial support and help raise my child. I was abandoned by my Father at a young age and that has had negative effects on me over the years.

I'm over it, it happens to millions of children around the world at any given point in time, you just have to accept and move on, but his abandonment has made me determined to be the best possible Father I can be, the best possible Dad, the type that I wished I had when I was growing up. Turning a negative into a positive is always nice.

It's funny, I grew up with both parents, but they affected me in a really negative way (long story) my father especially. So it makes me want to be the best mother possible.

Well who knows maybe if my Father did stick around I may have ended up feeling the way I do now, but I am sure you'll make a fantastic Mother (when the time comes).

372 opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. Be a man about it and support her through the difficult time ahead and hope that such a mistake brings us closer together and not draw us apart, and be a father to the child regardless of the outcome, and help her raise the child we have together. Among other essentials of course, but I only get 2500 characters so thought I would mention the basics, x

Anonymous(30-35)+1 yI honestly haven't a clue.
I don't do casual sex and I've no intention of getting into a serious relationship anytime soon but if I was involved in a short term thing and she got pregnant, I would be pretty terrified. I would have to get a job and work God knows how many hours rather than work on my education and my own problems.
It's her decision but, as bad as it sounds, I'd feel relieved if I wasn't involved.
That's just me though. I'm sure guys are completely different on this and I've no idea how I'd really react anyway.10 ReplyWhat I did was marry her... big mistake. If I didn't love her I'd be in the kids life and pay child support like you're supposed to

you didn't grow to love her in a simpler kind of way either?
- +1 y
there's definitely a huge difference between being in love and simply loving someone. I have friends I love, but am definitely not in love with.
I get not falling in love in that sort of situation, but honestly, I'm surprised you didn't grow to love her after all that time too. - +1 y
no, I'm not saying fall in love. and I'm not one of those women. I truly feel sorry for those women. I want a family, but not like that. I'm extremely careful not to get pregnant. it's important to me to first fall in love, get married, then a few years later have a kid or two..
I don't do casual sex, so if I accidentally got my girlfriend pregnant, I would still stay with her. And I would do what I could to be there for my child, should she choose to keep him/her.

+1 yFreak out about it. Then once I get my head on straight tell her to abort it. I know that's heartless but I'm simply not ready for a child. Besides, I'm married and my wife doesn't want kids at all. So I doubt she would even give me an option to keep it.
10 ReplyI'd run. JK. I've had a pregnancy scare before at the age of 19. I told her I'll do whatever it takes to get her through the pregnancy but we both agreed to put the baby up for adoption. Unfortunately she had a miscarriage.

Not a miscarriage! Pregnancy! Damn.
Question will scream in my mind.. why didn't she take plan B? Then suggest abortion. If she refuses I jump off a building. I'm a no-child person.
But for a partner of mine to get pregnant... That would have to be one super strong egg and sperm because I'd always recommend IUD. Using Condoms as a way to protect each other until we're confirmed clean.00 Reply
Anonymous(25-29)+1 yI would feel very anxious, and nervous, would probably talk to her about raising the child, and the sacrifices we would both have to make.
This happened, with my ex-girlfriend and she didn't tell me she was pregnant and had an abortion, i was very shook up, because she thought i would leave her if i found out. that couldnt be further from the truth.05 Reply- +1 y

i still feel horrible about it. One because my ex obviously didn't trust me, and because i am kind of pro-life- +1 y
No it's your baby too. You have the right to be part of the decision. Personally, I'd be so angry.
Opinion Owner+1 yi wasn't angry, more sad, and upset at myself for not earning her trust.
i am extra responsible now, make sure, when i have a baby, its because my partner and i both want one!- +1 y

- +1 y
It does. Let me rephrase:
If she were to get pregnant, it would not be my fault. The reason for this, is that I always use condoms. Additionally, I make sure that some other kind of contraceptive is involved, to reduce the risk of pregnancy. If she does get pregnant, it is not my burden. Therefore I would not want to keep it.
