Hi Rantandtalkz, I’m 24 years old. I’ve only been in two relationships so far; one lasted a year, the other 2 years before I met a guy in December 2023. We started talking and decided to start dating in February this year. I was working, so I didn’t decide to date my ex because of money but because I liked him. He was loyal to me, but my only issue with him, which I realized after we started dating, is he always likes to be right and doesn’t like to apologize. He’d rather stretch an argument than accept he’s wrong, which pisses me off most times, but I just ignore him and say sorry to end it all. We did tests before we became intimate with each other. My ex doesn’t like using protection, and he’s very bad at withdrawal. This was what caused the break point in our relationship. I popped contraceptive pills a lot because of him, which led to my irregular cycle.
I complained about it to him; he’d promise not to, but ends up repeating it and apologizing. Around April, I got so worried about it and refused to take p!||s. Though I tried to track my cycle, it failed me, which led to me being pregnant. I was so scared and worried; I knew I never wanted this. When I told him, he thought I was joking and asked for a blood test, which I did, and it came out positive. This was when my ex changed. He started giving me attitude. I was so depressed I had to consult a friend; I told her everything and my decision to remove the baby, but I didn’t know how to go about it and was so scared. She calmed me and told me what to do. The night I did it, I nearly died. I kept praying, crying, and begging God to spare my life. My so-called boyfriend wasn’t even showing empathy or comforting me while I was going through a lot.
He literally stayed almost 24 hours without hearing from me, whether I was alive or not, and that was it for me. The next day, I broke up with him. He started giving excuses, saying he had so much on his mind, business wasn’t going well, and the whole pregnancy thing was a shock to him. He kept begging me to forgive him, which I did, but I told him I couldn’t keep being with him; he needs to work on himself. Long story short, he’s still begging me up to date, but I promised myself he was a mistake I’ll never repeat by God’s grace. Right now, I’m in a very healthy relationship with a guy who loves me and makes my happiness his priority ☺️.
