My boyfriend and I have been together for 4 1/2 years. This last year has been especially difficult. I was going to break up with him, but now I am pregnant. Mostly, our problems revolve around his religion. I have been very clear with him that I will never convert. Yet he imagines that "someday" I will magically decide to wear a hijab (headscarf). The irony in all of this is that the day after I conceived, we had a very serious conversation about how we were going to raise kids together with this huge difference between us. Another sticking point b/w us is the fact that although he was separated from his wife for 1 1/2 years before we met, he's still married. She lives far away. There is no contact, nothing b/w them. Obviously he's not that strict of a muslim, but all of his friends are. That's the part I can't stand anymore. I have nothing in common w/any of them and just not happy in this life. Should I disappear, never let him know @ his kid? I am 6 wks along. Abortion, is a "no".
