DH: Your dad is lucky to be alive after a massive heart attack Friday. The very first thing you said when the doctor told him to quit smoking was, "I'll do it with you dad." Liar. Complete lie. And I'm an ass hole if I even ASK you about it. You: lighting up. Me: "But you said.." You: I don't want to TALK about it! Conversation OVER. Well I'm done with it. The only reason I still smoke is because of you. You want me to sit with you and watch tv? While you're blowing smoke all around the room? That's made it really hard to totally quit, for me. So I'm done. You can sit by yourself. You want to smoke, even after all this? You'll be the ONLY one doing it. You'll be alone. I'm so sick of people being completely full of shit.

Well, y'all can take heart in the FACT that this type of abortion is extremely rare. Yes, I said EXTREMELY. Women don't abort healthy babies at a rate that warrants this level of "concern" and condemnation. Instead of perpetuating the lie that this is commonplace, do some damn research. Your emotional response to the false narrative that women are committing infanticide is NOT reality. Ffs.

Called my mom, went to her house last night bawling my eyes out about the guy. She asked if we were intimate and I finally told her yes and that we'd been together for 10 months. Spilled a lot to her. I haven't talked to him since Tuesday. Some people in my life keep acting like I should be over him. This is the 1st heartbreak I've ever been through. I had heartbreak with ex-dh, but it was in bits and pieces, not out of the blue bam like this. It's embarrassing at work because I wear my sunglasses all day to hide my puffy eyes and tears. It will get better right?

I was pregnant with a little girl last year. A about 26 weeks, it was discovered that I had placenta percreta. Basically the placenta was growing into the uterine wall, specifically a c-section scar from having my son. This is really dangerous and can kill the mother. There was no way I could carry her any longer. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever consider aborting her. She was delivered by c-section. She did not survive and only lived a few hours, but THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH OUR DECISION TO DELIVER HER. She had a heart defect doctors didn't know about. She would most likely not have survived even if she went full-term. It was heart wrenching for sure, but how does someone just abort at that point?

In a situation like the one you described, no one's opinion matters except the mother's. Different women will choose differently. Personally, I would choose to terminate the pregnancy if my life was in danger, even if it was viable. I have two little girls to raise. I'm not leaving them behind because of some romantic idea that an unborn fetus's heartbeat is more precious than my own life. I would be sad, and I would grieve, but I would be grateful that I was able to make the choice to save my life, so I could raise my kids. This is why abortion should be legal, safe, affordable, and considered a normal part of women's healthcare. Anything less suggests that women aren't capable of making decisions about their lives and their health.

I am so extremely lonely. I used to talk and text with him numerous times a day, now nothing. I have my mom, sister, grown kids and friends, but it's not the same. Tomorrow marks 1 week since he said he was reevaluating our 10 month relationship. Will I ever get over this? I feel so lost, tired and heartbroken.

It just hit my 47 year old self while driving. I've always looked for love and my worth from men. My dad left and cheated on my mom so I always felt bad, I jumped into a marriage right out of high school, and dated this guy for 10 months because I wanted to be loved by a man. Wow! I really have a lot of work to do on myself if I ever hope to be in a good relationship. I must love myself first!!!! And you know what? It seems I have always disliked myself even though people tell me I'm sweet, pretty, good heart etc...

Thank you so much for your kind words ladies. I called in sick today because I feel so extremely sad, but I dragged my butt out of bed and came. Being heart broken is so so sad. Guy just told me last week to trust his love for me. Sighhhh. And he was my 1st relationship since my 27 year marriage ended. The ladies close to me keep telling me I'll have to kiss a lot of toads to find my Prince Charming. I know they're right. Thank you so very much for your support.

I want to give up on life. I'm so tired of everything and I'm heartbroken. When will I ever be happy?

He broke up with me after 8 months. After all our plans, trips, texts, phone calls, etc. He said because of distance, my smoking (which I never did around him), and my communication. I'm so heart broken. He was my 1st relationship after my 27 year marriage. Man, how could he? I blocked his number, erased all pictures and emails, and blocked him on FB. I'm so sad.
