I guess this ain't the place to say this sort of stuff, but it beats talking to a wall. Or chair.

My girlfriend called me around three hours ago, and sounded as if she cried. She said "NJ, I'm pregnant" and hung up the phone. I tried calling back, and we started talking. She was sick for a week or two now, bit worse than usual. The local doc. called it natural, but eventually her female roommate(who was in the same situation two years ago, so I've been told) told her to get a pregnancy test. One of them home kits. "Just to be sure", she said.

It was that time of the month, she checked the thing again after sometime and it came back positive. She went Oh-noes, she called me and I said Oh-shits.

But skipping to the point...

She's pregnant, she's about to turn 20, I am 20, it's January 1st, I'm a UPS driver, she's a secretary, I live alone, she's with a friend, my VISA's screwed and I'm still on the verge of getting deported out of this country, I didn't tell my folks yet, neither has she told hers, we both hate protection AAAANNNNDDD... The first time I ate at her folks' place, first her lovely pops stared at me for an hour, then her father showed me his little friend in his cars' trunk. A sawed off shotgun. He then blinked, and made me shit my pants. I can safely consider my ass to be dead.

Yeah, I've had better news before.

Oh Dude...dude dude dude...Dude!? i don't know what to say!?

That's the risk you take i suppose.

Well man, even though I don't exactly believe in it, there's always abortion. I know it's a touchy subject and I don't wanna start a whole thing, but I'm just sayin'...

In all honesty, the first thing I did after I read this was laugh. Sorry, but that is pretty funny with the whole shotgun thing.

Sorry to hear it though, guess you could ask to be deported then not have to worry about being a baby daddy.

EDIT: My comment was meant to cheer you up by the way, but like Dboy said, figure out what you are going to do and do it now.

Wow, defiantly a bombshell.  Stay strong buddy.  I know the feeling of being in a situation with a possible pregnancy that wasn't planed and it is unnerving, but the best you can do now is stay positive and pick the decision that is best for you.  

I've had a similar thing happen to me a couple of years back, except my girlfriend lived in New Zealand.  Won't go into the whole story here, but one thing's for sure, you need to figure out what you're going to do, and you need to do it now.  I'm not giving you shit or anything, but that was a bad move on your part.  Nonetheless, if you need to talk it over, you know where to find me.

.... What kind of asshole threatens their daughter's boyfriend with a shotgun?

Be a Father, friend. Make your son/daughter have a great future ahead of them.

THings look difficult, and I am not exactly someone who can help since I don't now anything about this situations. But I hope you do the right thing...

Oh and as one of your first good friends at Gamespot, if im not mistaken, im here for ya if you need to talk, or vent, or whatever!, and im not just saying that as nice pleasantries, im around 24/7 so hang in there!

Oh shit... stay calm, talk it out, decide on a clear path of action.

Good luck.

I would drop entertainment on a whole and focus on getting a better job and a house. Have you given any thought to marriage? What's your stance on abortion?

Unless you want the kid, I don't think there's any other way than getting it "taken cared of." Sorry, dude, best of luck to you. If you need to talk, PM me.
