Re: Confusing situation involving a pregnant friend
Abortion is the way to go here. Unfortunately like most posters said she may have strong feelings against it, or feel a lot of pressure to have the baby which totally sucks for her.

Re: Confusing situation involving a pregnant friend
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Cliff Notes: Girl I used to date for 2 years got pregnant by her new boyfriend, do I suggest abortion or leave her to make an uninformed decision in an unbalanced emotional state? [/ QUOTE ] Boy you really think highly of her don't you? Obviously, she will never make a good choice without your help. It's none of your buisiness. Stay out of it and let her make a deciscion without everyone else, including you, trying to force their will on her. It's her choice. [/ QUOTE ] esad, this might be the best idea, but this is probably not the case. She may well want to have an abortion but feel pressured by her parents/guy/other people to do what she feels is best. Aborted fetus' can't talk, so someone has to do the talking for them. edit to add: maybe she willl resent OP if she does abort, but if OP really cares about her, and thinks this will seriously [censored] up her future than its probably worth it. Also, if she does have this baby OP and her will probably not remain great friends down the road anyways.

[/ QUOTE ] yea i know, but it's not like she just walks in, has an abortion, and walks out. I did a lot of research on this, and there is a local clinic that does pre- and post-abortion counseling, in groups and 1-on-1. They even have discounts for students or people with low income. And like i said i would be willing to take her to the clinic. I just don't want it to seem like i'm pushing her.

Re: Confusing situation involving a pregnant friend
I would advise that she speak to a professional. If you feel the need to give advice, I hope it's for adoption, not abortion (just my opinion, please don't turn this into a politics thread).

Re: Confusing situation involving a pregnant friend
dude, abortions are easy, especially after the first one. I don't know why you need to make it any more than "walk in, get'er done, walk out" because that's literally all there is. Trust me, I've been getting girls pregnant forever.

Re: Confusing situation involving a pregnant friend
There is nothing for you to do. Just be a good friend and be supportive - with whatever decision she makes.

Re: Confusing situation involving a pregnant friend
If your friend having and caring for her baby is not a feasible option, I'm certain a loving family would be estatic to adopt him or her.
Many women later regret their abortions, and your friend is unlikely to feel similar regret by bringing her child to term and letting another family raise it.

Re: Confusing situation involving a pregnant friend
My suggestion.
Step 1) Suggest a day trip with chick to Philadelphia. (If this is cross country for you, suggest a couple day trip!) Step 2) Run up and conquer the Rocky stairs with chick. (Picture included for visual)  Step 3) Push chick down the stairs. Step 4) Run away fast. <font color="white"> I'm kidding of course, I'm only this sick in my mind, not in practice! </font>
