Is there an easier way to tell your boyfriend your pregnant?

Question

Its like i look him in the eyes and wonder should he know?
or should i just not tell him and leave him?
hes not ready for a kid.

Answer 1

Being ready or not is not an option at this point! He needs to know. This is something that he needs to prepare for just like you do. Even thought he isn't carrying the baby inside of him he has to mentally prepare for the idea of being a Dad and what that all means. If he is not ready he should have thought about that when you too were having unprotected sex. If you want to leave him that is your choice but it doesn't change the paternity of your child who will one day ask you who their Daddy is and then you will be the one in the hotseat. Honesty is the best policy.

Answer 2

The worst thing you can do is leave, the kid needs a father both mentally and physically. When theres some alone time, explain to him that you may be pregnant, and that your not sure. Then take a pregnancy test, and if it comes out Positive show him. He may not think he's ready for a kid, but once he thinks about it- he may be. I guess it all really depends on the age, and person.

Answer 3

If he's the dad he should know. The child needs to know his dad too. If he didn't want kids, he shouldn't have had sex with you.

I would just tell him you were late, did a test and you are pregnant. Let him be the judge of wether he is ready or not. He may hear the news and want to step up and be responsible. If not, then you can choose to leave and get help elsewhere.

Good Luck.

Answer 4

he needs to know whether you believe he is ready or not. if you dont believe he is ready to be a father than you shouldnt be having sexual relations with him. just take him by the hand and tell him "we're pregnant" and leave the rest up to him, if he decides he isnt man enough and leaves then thats not the type of guy u want as a father anyway. any way you look at it he needs to know.

Answer 5

Gotta tell him and find out what his response will be. Just remember that his initial response MIGHT change after the shock of finding out your pregnant passes. If you decide to keep the child, no matter what, he's at the very least financially responsible for helping you out.. whether he wants to be in the kids life or not.

Just sit him down someplace the two of you can be alone and tell him flat out.. let him know how you feel about it and give him some time to figure out where he wants to stand in the situation.

Answer 6

I asked this question last week. I ended up taking the advice of one answerer in particular, and I did tell him. My situation is a little different than yours though, we lived together and I dumped him 3 days before I found out I am pregnant.

The thing that made me tell him was the thought of having to answer my child a few years from now when he/she asks about daddy. I just couldn't bear the thought of not having an answer for him/her, and I wouldn't be able to lie to my kid on something like that.

Answer 7

It is not your place to say hes not ready!! He is the father and has the right to know about his baby. If you cant tell him face to face then just write him a letter but however you do it just remember it has to be done

Answer 8

Sweetie he deserves to know, weather hes ready or not.

If he can have sex, then he can take responsibility for a child

Just sit him down and tell him....waiting won't be better, he will wonder why you waited.

I'm sure everything will work out in the end.

Answer 9

I can be upfront and honest with you and tell you that you are being very selfish! That is his baby just as much as it is yours and he does have the right to know! Rethink on that one. If neither of you were ready to have a child, then neither of you were ready to have sex! You BOTH made that choice and now you BOTH have to face up to the consequences!

Answer 10

If you are going to have the child you should tell the father. You could have the baby, wait for it to grow up, and then have it tell the father but I wouldn't suggest it.
