Chloe’s Inbox – When everything gets ruined

September 20, 2019

  Hi, DJ Chloe! I’m a silent reader of Chloe’s Inbox but I figured I’d write because things are getting real heavy.

  Okay, so, last week, I found out that I’m pregnant. This should be a good news except that, I got knocked up by a random guy I met at a bar where my friends and I celebrated my 21st birthday in June. I texted his number, (the only contact I have of him, btw) to meet up and tell him about it. I understand that this will be news to him but I’m shocked with how he reacted. Sabi niya, hindi raw kanya ‘tong dinadala ko at paano naman siya makasisiguro kung hindi malabong ginawa ko rin sa iba ‘yung ginawa namin? He then went on to tell me that he has a girlfriend with a baby on-the-way. He showed me her Facebook posts about her pregnancy and their wedding preparations. I really f—-ed up and I don’t know what to do. Until now, hindi pa alam ng parents ko kasi natatakot ako sa magiging reaction nila dahil panganay ako, graduating na sana at nabuntis na nga, sa ganitong paraan pa. Natatakot din akong maghabol kasi baka maibalik pa sa’kin ‘yung sisi na bakit ako nakipags*x sa hindi ko naman kakilala, worse, may girlfriend pa pala at buntis din! Pero, hindi rin naman kaya ng konsensya kong ipalaglag ‘tong dinadala ko. I hope you could help me. Thanks in advance.

  Hi Zoe,

  Well, the only thing you can do is to go on with the pregnancy!

  Tama naman siya. The moment you go bed hopping, men will really think gawain mo na ‘yan. You can’t blame him for thinking that way, sa pelikula lang ‘yung nauuwi sa happy ending ang ganyan,’ yung nagiging item ang naging one night stand. Pero kailangan siguro artistahin ka rin.

  Getting an abortion should never be an option, dear, tao ‘yan. Hindi ‘yan butiki, kahit nga butiki may right to live. Isa pa, may medical condition ka ba? Bawal ka magbuntis? Kahit pa nga ganyan ang case eh detrimental sa health ng nanay. I doubt if you can obtain a permit to do it.

  You decided to have sex with a random guy, now deal with the consequence of your choice.

  Tell your parents about it, it’s up to you naman kung sasabihin mo pa paano at kailan nangyari ‘yan eh at kung sino ang ama. You can opt to keep it to yourself, malay mo matuwa sila magkakaapo na sila.

  Having that kid with give you the direction you need in your life I hope.
