Broke down. (5 months pregnant)

So i've told my family that i'm pregnant. They were really disappointed especially my grandmother. My mom straight away wanted to meet my boyfriend's mother and we actually went to my boyfriend's house just now. My boyfriend was not there cos he was working. My mom talk to his mom, and they were suggesting that we should get married. I'm really okay with their suggestion. And my boyfriend's mom said that she will talk to my boyfriend. My boyfriend texted me when he got home, he texted me "I swear whatever happens, i will not marry you." I broke down the moment i read his text. I ask him, why. I don't want my baby to be fatherless. I was raised by single mother. I never knew who my dad was and how he looks like. I don't want my child to go through the same thing. I really want to get married. What shoukd I do to make my boyfriend wake up his sense? I'm actually crying right now.

Hun, I completely understand how you feel about the father situation, I am 22 and haven't seen my dad since I was 6, he has called me a bi*ch to my mom a year ago and he doesn't even know me, I have been with my then boyfriend for 4 years. We got married December of 2012! And found out I was pregnant August 27th, 2013 I am due April 23rd!  Now my advice, and it may not be the greatest, but don't stress over what your boyfriend is telling you, if he is saying he won't marry you, maybe he is just not ready but it doesn't mean you have to raise your little one alone, if he will be there let him be there thru no marriage, or marriage... you don't want to marry someone only because of the baby, you don't want to regret that decision later on in life if something goes wrong, you want to make the right choice, but sweetie you will be a great mommy with or without him, and if you had to do it alone, you will be strong for your little girl :) I know everything is easier said than done, but remember to pray, and god will handle it, and remember your only given the situations god knows you can overcome! You will be ok, if you need to talk I am here! Good luck!

If his family your family or you push him into marriage it won't be right. Do you really want to be married to the guy just because his mummy made him? It wouldn't last. Wait until he's ready to marry you for the right reasons or for someone else who will :)

She's not forcing... their parents kinda are. She's just upset that he wouldn't want to marry her.
