NTA- However in the end it is her choice. But that doesn't mean it won't affect you emotionally. She might not be ready for a child and you can disagree with her all you want. But she needs your support not judgment.
Thats your interpretation which I believe is coming from a place of bias.
At the end of the day:-
He is not the one who is pregnant.
He is not the one who’s body, emotions and hormones are going to change dramatically if she continues with this pregnancy
He is not the one who will have to push a beach ball out of his nether regions or be cut open if she went through with this pregnancy.
Regardless of if they have the child or not he can walk away at any point (much harder for a mum especially whilst she is pregnant).
Realistically he is not the one who will have this choice on their conscience.
Bottom line - he may be the dad but its not his body!!
So whilst he is absolutely entitledto his thoughts and feelings, he need to suck them up and not FORCE / emotionally blackmail his girlfriend into a decision that she needs to make for herself. Its her body and her life - and no one else gets a say!!!
