2 days ago I just told my boyfriend that I was pregnant. I taken 3 pregnancy tests and they were positive. Plus I went to my doctor yesterday and got confirmed. My boyfriend just moved to washington dc this past weekend to start his new job. The transition of new apartment and job is not going well. I called him on his cell phone to tell him that my period did not start and I taken a pregancy test. I told him it was positive and he told me that he was at work and he will call me later. He included that he needs to think about the situation. 3 hours later I haven't heard from him and I called him back. He was on his way home from work. I asked him what is his thoughts and he said that he is in shock from all this and needs time to think about it. I called him yesterday morning and gave a suggestion that I can put my furniture in storage and move up to dc. To find a job before I start to show. He told me he haven't thought that far ahead. I asked him what does he want to do and he said he didn't know. I expressed to him that I don't feel any support from him and he said that he is still shocked and needs time think about it. I told him that I feel left out in the murk and he repeated several times that he is not leaving me. He told me that he has been working at his new job for 3 days and he didn't need this situation dumped on him right now. I told him that I did not plan this. I have been taking birth control pills for 3 years and somehow it failed me. He even seen me take the pills when I spent nights at his old apartment. Yesterday evening, he did not call me and I don't know if he will come to terms of what is going on. We have been in a relationship for 3 years. We planned to have me moved up to dc in 6 months after he gets settled with his job. He told me more than once that he wants to get married the end of next year. Right now, I feel like he is being self-centered and is running away from the situation. I understand he is having a hard time in dc but this pregnancy is just as important as what is happening around him. I would appreciate any thoughts.
