k_c100 agony auntYou are not sure if you love him yet you are living with him and having a baby with him? Plus he has already cheated?

I'm sorry but you have gotten into quite a mess here and personally if I were you I would have the abortion - this is not the right situation to bring a child into the world espeically with a chance that the dad might not be around. A child deserves the best start in life and you just cannot offer that at the moment I'm afraid.

But this is entirely your decision - will you be ok having an abortion? Would you be able to live with this choice for the rest of your life? If you are not 100% happy with having an abortion then dont do it, you have to feel it is the right choidce for you regardless of what anyone else says.

I think most of all this man is no good for you and you need to move out and get away from him. He is not trustworthy and never will be, he will only keep on hurting you. I dont see a future for you at all, there is no point in having a relationship with someone who clearly has no respect for you. If all this has happened after only a short time together then it is only going to get worse - the start of a relationship is meant to be the happiest, most romantic time of all. But this clearly never has happened for you - you have had trouble from the start and it is clear it is not going to change.

As for the baby - do what you think is right. No-one on here can tell you what to do, it has to be your choice. This is a decision you will have to live with for the rest of your life so you cannot listen to anyone else, it has to be a choice that you make and it has to be the right thing for you. This may be having an abortion, or it may be keeping the baby. You just have to decide what is best for you and the child, if you can give it everything it deserves, if you can cope with a child and if you have the support around you to help you. There is no shame in having an abortion either, if it is the right decision for you at the time in your life then no-one can argue with that.

I hope this helps and good luck!

rambini agony auntThis man is clearly not going to support you at all, so if you don't think you can cope on your own then you should have an abortion because you cannot rely on him for help. a baby is a huge strain emotionally, financially and unless you feel prepared for all that you will find it very tough. he already has 2 children with an ex who he has no repect for, he cheated on her, he cheated on his next gf and hehas cheated on you, what more information do you need? this man will never be faithful and never be loyal, so in my opinion you should put this down to a life lesson, have an abortion, and learn something from the experience which will enable you to be strong, and find a man who loves and respects you, and then have a baby when the time is right. this man has manipulated you, lied to you, cheated on you, and disrespects you. you deserve more. best of luck.
