Contemplating

How has he been stressing you out and making you feel lesser than ?

Baby you got your WHOLE life ahead of you. It may be a hard pill to swallow but the years on your life will increase by making this decision

In my experience, nobody can tell you what to do. If you feel like you want/need to leave, then do that. If you feel like you want/need to stay, then stay.
Do you want to be a mom? Having a baby is a major life change.

Hearing about how he is treating you sounds very controlling and abusive, I would say you should leave while you can. As for the baby that’s completely up to you. If you want to keep the baby and be a single mom then that’s up to you, though in some ways you will be tied to him still unless he signs over all his rights. But if you think not having the baby is best for you then you should do that. Whatever is best for you is what you need to do. Don’t stay in a relationship with someone who isn’t loving towards you (because imo sounds like he probably will put most of the work of taking care of a baby on you). You deserve happiness and if he isn’t giving you that don’t try to force it, most likely he won’t change. Wishing you all the best, I have no experience in this situation but if you need someone to talk to please send me a message!

Hello,
As someone also raised by a single mum (divorced years into childhood) you have the power to break every generational curse. I will say however, that often single mums are not good when it comes to advising on relationship and married business because bitterness, jealousy, and misery will unconsciously prevent them from offering encouragement, advice and impartial opinions.

Please believe me, as someone whose mother almost wrecked their marriage before it really began… I can say from experience that not everything she says is true and unfortunately not every relationship advise is meant with good intent. I am certain you love your mum very much as do I. But when it comes to your man, YOU KNOW HIM not your mum. Don’t let her words cloud your perception of him. Close your ears if you have to when she talks. And, as you have a family remember it is YOUR family NOT your mum’s.

You don’t owe your mum your loyalty over your child or family. The same way she didn’t owe her parents

Men don't change. If anything they get worse. You're so young. Having a baby gives you a lot of love but also a crazy amount of responsibility, probably the most you'll have in your life. You can't get up and go traveling or study without a LOT of help. Having a stable and supportive partner changes your and your baby's life. Live first, make a career for yourself, become financially independent, travel and enjoy the freedom. You'll eventually be a better mum for it in the future.
