I missed my period and stayed quiet.
He asked, “So what are you going to do?”
I said, “WE. What are WE going to do?”
He immediately said, “I’m not ready to be a father.”
Funny, because this was the same man always saying:
“I want a baby with you.”
“You’d look so good pregnant.”
“I want to get you pregnant.”
So you liked the fantasy… just not the responsibility.
I went to the clinic alone.
It was stress.
When I told him I wasn’t pregnant, he smiled and said,
“Thank God.”
That was the moment I realized some men only love the parts of women that don’t require accountability.
I left soon after.
Later I found out he’d been telling another girl he “couldn’t wait to be a dad someday.”
