in the twelve years of being sexually active, i found myself in a position that never crossed my mind. there were a few times i could have easily gotten pregnant, but didn't, due to luck and/or pcos. but, one night, i made the mistake of not using a condom.

let me start this by saying, my entire life i have been pro choice. i always knew it was each individual’s right to decide what they did with their body regardless of the circumstances. little did i know one day i would be making that decision on my own.

i was 16 going on 17, my boyfriend at the time was crap. he was abusive and manipulative, he though i would him since i lost my virginity to my first boyfriend a year before. he would call me a whore and would coerce and force me into having sex with him. after i found out about him cheating on me i went to the clinic, i was tired and i wanted to know i was okay, no std's.

i've been with my boyfriend for four years and have lived with him most of that time. when i got pregnant, i im世界杯2022亚洲预选赛b组 tely knew i wanted an abortion and he agreed with me. we aren't ready for children financially or mentally.

it was the night before my first day of being a senior in highschool, just sixteen soon to turn seventeen a few weeks later, when i finally decided to stop being in denial and take a pregnancy test. turns out my worst fears were now reality. it's shocking, it almost takes your breath away.

i had an abortion at 17, and i know i made the right decision. i met a guy during my celebrations after finishing high school. he was from new zealand, he was older, he was 19, he was my first real boyfriend. i lost my virginity to him.
