(((AI))),
Thank you for giving us an update on how you are making out. I guess we are pretty much becoming mother hens around you and we are concerned about "YOU" and ofcourse that wonderful life that is coming shortly.

I am glad to hear you are standing up for yourself and making the decision that you want a man that is going to "value and respect" you. Many women come to that point where they wake up and realize how important "they" are instead of what they "need to keep sacrificing in their sense of self worth to a man that they may have chosen to love unwisely". Your mind was clearing in a chruch? I can picture you there with the right thoughts coming into your mind for a change, toughts you deserve to have about "your worth as a young woman".

I think it was good that you got to release your anger to this young man who is being selfish and choosing to "run away" from his responsibilities. And dear, you certainly don't want to invest your life in someone who will suddenly turn "selfish" and run away from his family like that. And this DOES happen much too often sadly.

You are still very young and you can still build a wonderful life for yourself. You have a new person coming into your life that you WILL really love. And someday you will look at this child and say, "well, I would not change anything now because, if it meant not having this wonderful loving little girl, I would do all again". That is what you will say one day and you will learn so much about taking care of yourself and becoming a strong person too. And all of that you can share with this little girl who will have to learn to do the same.
