Forever Might Not Be Forever

My boyfriend and I had been dating for over a year when I learned I was pregnant. We were both in college. We hadn't talked about marriage, but I assumed we would always be together. John told his parents about the pregnancy. They said he was too young and should "just forget it happened." John said he had been thinking about breaking up with me anyway.

I was absolutely devastated. I asked him if he could at least be there when our daughter was born, but he decided to travel to England to study and I was left alone.

I called John when my daughter was born, but he denied she was his and demanded a blood test. I never expected someone who said they loved me to leave me feeling so alone and abandoned.
