I've been with my girlfriend for 2 months and she's pregnant. She has been really distant and not wanted anything to do with me, but I was dealing with that fairly well. We we're more in love than any couple you've ever seen. The problem is that yesterday we found out that she was already pregnant when we got together. I tried to reassure her that I'm not going anywhere. I love her and this baby enough to stay. Up til now, when I could get her to talk, she said she still loves me and still wants to b with me, she just needs space. We knew it might not be mine. I asked her today that whether he's involved or not , is me her and this baby to be a family. She said she doesnt know right now and I flipped out a little. I gave it time and told her I love her and that she didn't have to say it back but I'd b there until she decides to get rid of me. I'd much rather b involved and a stepdad than not have them in my life at all. I'm scared. I don't want to lose her but I don't know how to keep her.

that rough spot shouldve said I asked her if me, her and this baby being a family is still what she wanted. Any feedback I can get at this point would really help.

It sounds like you're doing the right thing by giving her space. Is there any chance that she wants to get back with her ex due to the pregnancy? It sounds like you are a great guy and I really hope it works out for you.

Thanks. I doubt it. I mean, its a possibility I guess, but the only thing that made her think about not having it was the possibility that it was his and not mine, and neither one of us has told anyone its not mine. The problem with space is that we live together. Part of me wants to find another place to stay for a while so she can have all the space she needs, but I don't want to not be there if she needs me. I know me being there is getting on her nerves but I don't want her to b alone. Not to mention that I pick up dinner on my way home from work, take care of the dog, give her money cuz she's low on cash, all that stuff. And I don't mind at all. I just wish I could help her thru this and get back to "how perfect we r for each other" (her words). Any suggestions?
