Teen mom stuff
One of the most common arguments I've heard about not getting pregnant when you're young is that you wont be able to go party with your friends. I've never really been a party animal. When I was going thru my wild stage at 16, it was actually pretty horrible.
I had my iPod stolen out of my jacket while it was in a friend's bedroom by her boyfriend and instead if telling me so I could get it back, she covered for him. Twice! I had my pot stolen from me, I had a cool pipe I got in London stolen, and I had a string of crappy boyfriends who would spend all my money, steal any change I had, and pretty much use me cuz I was convenient. One time a bf tried to cheat on me with my own cousin. Another tried to cheat on me with my best friend at the time (same guy who pawned my grandma's gold jewelry). I got sick of it pretty fast, needless to say.
I met my husband at my first job (he was one my managers) and we immediately hit it off. I left my crappy boyfriend for him and I've never looked back. We got married when I was 18 and now at 19, I'm happier than ever with my husband and our little baby growing inside me.
When I first got married, everyone was telling me to wait to have a kid because it sucks when your friends go partying without you. My friends (who were crappy excuses if friends) left me in the dust when I told them I was getting married because "its hard to stand by someone you love when you think they are making the worst decision of their lives". Conditional friendship? I'd say so. I feel that if they were really friends, they would have stuck with me so they could be there for me if/when I fall.
The point of this rant is that I want to be a wife and a mommy. I'm more than happy to leave all that nonsense behind me. I don't see why others (particularly my family members and aforementioned "friends") don't see that part of the argument. Some 19 year old girls aren't like me and wanna hang out and party, but I'm more than content to sit at home and cuddle with my little one and a man who really loves and adores me.

I look at my friends from high school and feel almost sorry for them for the stuff they've gotten into.
But don't let them get u down because you are happy and let them be miserable with themselves. They're probably just jealous of you and your husbands happiness
its just fusterating when people try to tell you how its gonna be when no one is the same.. everyones different. You know..?
Anyhoo, good luck to you ladies who feel this way too! Mommy power!
I know all about the small town thing. I live in a suburb where there is nothing to do. All the fun stuff is in downtown Seattle, but I can't always afford bus trips and I don't wanna get stranded downtown with the hobos and crackheads if I miss the last bus out. I wasn't lucky enough to have rich parents who could buy me a car and pay for driving school. Since I couldn't go where the fun was, I sat around and smoked pot with crappy back-stabbing people. Like I said, I'm so much happier with my husband and my fetus I'm sorry to hear that the dad doesn't want to be part of your baby's life, but there are always good guys out there who will love a child that isn't biologically theirs.
Could happen sooner than you think tho! Some guys are just really cool. My hubby and I are so alike that I noticed while we were watching a movie, he and I were both playing with our lower lips and even with the same hand. He loves me so much that when I'm really pissed at him (only happened like twice), he feels sick and hurt until we patch things up. I never thought I'd be married at 19!
