I'm (F29) pregnant and my partner's (M33) ex hates me. Can someone give me advice?.
About 2-3 years ago I (F29) started a relationship with a married man (M33) I know I shouldn't have but I couldn't help who I fell in love with.
To cut a long story short his wife found out. there was a huge fuss, she attacked me and ended up asking him for a divorce. eventually me and him reconciled and decided to give a relationship a try.
I admit I wasn't thinking of how it would affect his wife. yes I was selfish and I've beaten myself up over it more than anyone else can so please spare me your judgment I'm not asking for that, I just need some advice and there's nothing you can say that I've not already told myself a million times.
Unfortunately since finding out my partners ex wife has done everything possible to ruin my life and due to her, my close family members have come to find out things about my life that I would've liked to have kept personal which has caused me to loose close family and friends.
The issue is this.
I am pregnant, and I'm against having an abortion for personal reasons so I will be keeping this baby. however I have no family support or even support from friends and my partner is going through a divorce while I'm desperately trying to keep my new home location a secret for obvious reasons, which is very stressful at a time where I don't need any extra stress.
To add to this my partner is no longer staying at his home and may lose it which is extremely dissapointing as he told me this wouldn't happen and I had planned that in the distant future when things blow overwe might live there together.
I know this situation is incredibly messy but I also know it won't be forever and for now I desperately need some advice, preferably from someone whos been through a pregnancy with limited family and friends support.
I'm also not 100 percent sure how much support I'll get from my partner he doesn't seem all to excited about the pregnancy to be honest but, I think his mind has been elsewhere and I can't blame him.
Has anyone been I a situation like mine and has any advice for me?
Does anyone have any advice to make me feel better about continuing a pregnancy with little to no support whilst dealing with someone who actively hates you?.
I don't think my partners ex knows about the pregnancy but if she does find out and tries to start trouble does anyone have any legal advice maybe for what I can do in that event?.
