Welcome to CD Linaa!

This childish begging is because they ARE kids.

Yeah, he’s sounds like a goof. Cheaters will always cheat. No three strikes here.

Can you believe the sexting with his ex?

The OP seems too young to be worried about being alone. She probably just graduated from HS, or is in her final year of HS. The OP needs to get a life for herself, preferably not one that's about revolving around a guy who's 6 years older, and is playing her. OP, you don't want to get married, have a child, then find out the child's father has no sincere interest in you, or resents being saddled with an infant in the prime of his life, or all of the above and more. Then you'll be the one who's stuck with a child to raise alone, with no job skills, facing the prospect of moving back in with your parents.

Work on your self-esteem, and set some education goals for yourself. You deserve so much better than this!

I agree. You described how her situation is gonna turn out perfectly. She’ll be back on here months after they have been marrie complaining about him treating her different, not acting like a husband, texting sexting other girls and one will probably still be his ex. She’s gonna have kids to deal with on top of a nasty divorce. Living together, married as young as she is with someone who will be 24 and she’s only gonna be 19 just screams messy. He is playing her, he probably propsed and is marrying her for his own convenience until something better comes along or if his ex ever wants him back.

Yes, exactly. I hear our OP is now pregnant. I now understand why single motherhood was socially stigmatized. It was the only way to get women (and men) with no sense to make better choices.
