Do NOT get pregnant. If he has doubts, getting pregnant and having a baby will mostly not solve anything. It gets tougher with a kid.

I know he says that he doesn't want anyone else to take care if his child
Report as
Then that means the only reason he would be staying with you is not because he loves you, but because he doesn't want to leave his child.
Report as
I'm concerned he said he only wants to be with you if you're pregnant. And what if he decides later that it didn't really change anything? I think he needs to figure out his doubts before you guys decide on having a kid because even if he has to pay child support, there's nothing stopping him leaving and finding someone else. The decision is up to you, but you have to be prepared if things don't work out.
Report as
I told him that even if I find out that I am pregnant that we don't have to be together and I don't wanna be with anyone because we have a child together
Report as
btw I'm not saying you should break up with him because having doubts about a relationship here and there is normal. I'm saying I don't think getting pregnant is the answer.
Report as
Then he says he's not trying to Be selfish but then he won't explain
Report as
If he's not trying to explain or communicate what he's going through, that seems troubling. I understand the whole being a guy and not talking about your emotions, but if he loves you and wants you to stay, he should make an effort. This might be something you have to deal with for a long time if you have a kid with him.

I just broke up with my boyfriend of 2 years 3 weeks ago. We were living together. Yes it's very hard for a little bit, but it will get better. Don't feel bad, he isn't worth your time :)

Prob to tell people that he is only with you bc you are pregnant. Or the good side of it is he wants to have more with you and have a child.

I'm sorry to hear that hon, really I am. If you're both willing to work it out you can give it your best effort. Just look at it this way - it's better to know now, than for him to try and hide it from you.

Just like the age old problem. Men think with their hormones because of their lack of any other resources.

He's a controlling jerk. Run away as fast as you can. Don't punish a child being born into this unhealthy relationship.

after you do the pregnancy test, whether it's negative or positive, tell him it's negative, then get out of there, break up with him. get an abortion if needed, but do NOT let him catch on that you are doing it.

DUMP HIS ASS! Immediately! Anyone who says something like that has no true feelings for you. A relationship should NEVER be hinged on blackmail or manipulation. He's a loser .. You can do much better!!!! Run and don't look back!
