Just got a fun email from SO re - me hating his daughter... Which is about 80% true, but really - this is out of left field. I think it's because he really wants her to visit soon, but knows he'll have to lay down to the hag and beg her on bended knee, and by the time she lets him know...it'll be Friday at 2:30 and then I really turn into a witch. Last minute is her way of getting to me, and he allows it. He'll likely need me to chip in with the babysitting... So when I said no to herding his cattle from a previous relationship - apparently I'm hateful.

Just found out I'm pregnant and it's a surprise. We've both taken precautions when we were intimate, and I was regularly bleeding etc...until a month ago, cramping and heavy bleeding. Now I find this out. 15 weeks...and now I'm so torn and confused. I love my son more than life but I don't know that this is something I can do. It's mostly financial, which adds to my bitterness with SO. I'm 26 and as much as I'd like to throw around my maturity.. I need some support...

I met my SO almost 5 years ago and it was not a typical dating situation in that – neither of us really wanted to be in a relationship. We knew that we had a lot of fun spending time together but he’d just gotten out of a bad marriage and I’m considerably younger than he is and wanted to keep having all the fun I could have! Of course that never works – because people get attached and without any set-in-stone expectations, everything is a mess. We stuck it out for about a year.
