Hey I slept with a guy who has a girlfriend and he got me pregnant, how should I tell him?
Hey there love,
The best choice you have is to let him know the truth. Sometimes the truth hurts but he needs to know what has happened. He deserves that much. If possible, try to set up a meeting with him as soon as you can. Don’t announce your pregnancy through call or text, as he can easily ignore you this way.
When you set a meeting, you may want to pick a placed where its quiet and non distracting. A park is a good example. You dont want to many people around where there chatter drowns your conversation. When you tell him, you should be direct with him as beating around the bush may upset or frustrate him. Give him a couple of minutes to let the news sink in. He may need more time, most do. You can try to discuss plans and options, but its probably best to wait till the guy has had some time to think about his options.
Another thing that might help, is proof. Denial is an easy route for people sometimes, so a doctors note, pregnancy test or a sonogram photo will help him realize your serious.
Since this guy has a girlfriend, it may be difficult for him so time is essential. Now that you are pregnant, you have to start thinking about your choices and back up plans. This will be a difficult situation for the both of you, but things will eventually get better. Its just a new chapter to life.
Stay strong,
Joanna
