one of my friends just got pregnant... and i dont know if its a good thing...and no, before you ask, not by me.
shes 18, unmarried, and i think she had plans to attend college next year... and i have no concearn about her skills as a mother, she values family more than anything else... its the father im worried about, i havent known him to be the best person, honestly, im concearned that he will freak out and leave, which would really get her messed up, considering she is almost completely dependant on him, financially, emotionally, and in other ways as well. Thier relationship has been kind of rocky for the entire length of it as well. he just went to the other side of the country to finish his college education, which also worries me because he has cheated on her before.
as her best friend i dont know if i should be really spreading it all over the boards, but she doesnt post to my knowelege, or does she know i post, and im not using names... so i guess its ok... but thats besides the point.
and im wondering, as her best friend, what should i do? should i mention my concerns to her? i would have but i dont think its my place, really. and what should i really do? i have no intent to abandon her by any means, but should i just keep my distance so she can go through her pregnancy without my interference? i dont want to be imposing but at the same time i dont want her to feel that she is alone. She lives in another state now so i cant be around her 24/7 but i intend to visit now and then.
so good people of the lounge. i need help. sorry for the messy post but im trying organize in a state of half-shock right now, im kinda scared of what could happen to her if things dont go her way.
