Question Posted Sunday July 29 2007, 2:57 am

okay so my parents got divorced like 2-3 years ago about. and my dad started dating this girl that is really nice and they have been going out for like a little more then a year maybe. so anyway my dad told me and siblings that she was pregnant! it came as a complete shock to all of us. they earn't even married. so anyway i don't really like talking about my feelings and stuff to anybody and i don't want people to like feel sorry for me or anything, so i don't no how to tell my friends. my best friend already know's because our moms are friends, but i don't know how to tell my other friends. you can definatley tell that she's pregnant now because she's on like month 7. i don't even no if i should tell some of my friends because alot of them don't even come over to my house and we just hang at the mall and stuff. so anyway, how do i break the news or should i even tell them? i no i have to tell my close friends but how? please hurry and thanks in advance!

The truth of it is that this is only a big deal to you. I don't mean that in a mean way, I just mean
this is a big event in your life, but to most friends who aren't real close it isn't going
to be a big deal.

So it isn't like you are breaking some difficult
news to them. Just mention it if you feel like it.
It isn't going to change how they feel about you
at all. :)

Look at all the movie stars that have babies and aren't married! Brad and Angelina for one.

While, I personally don't think it's the best way to go, everyone has to live their own lives according to what they think is best for them.

Only tell who you feel comfortable telling, and if they're good friends it shouldn't matter. After all, they are friend with YOU right? Not your parents. You have not control over your parents decisions- so it's not a reflection on you.

Well if you don;t live with your dad they really don't have to know. I had the same problem. My new little brother is four now. He was dating this girl for abotu a year, but then all of a sudden she was pregnet. My dad was going to marry her so he could take care of the child but she went with another dude. Now my dad is married and im going to have another little brother. But if you don't want people to know don't tell them. If they find out they shouldn't be mad that you didn't tell them. It's a new sibling. It's not their buisness.

Well, technically, it's really not any of their business. If you're that uncomfortable telling them, then you could just wait for them to find out on they're own. I'm a little confused in why you're hesitating on telling them. What do you think they'll say? That they won't be your friend anymore because your dad's new girlfriend is pregnant? If they're not close friends then don't sweat it. Your best friends might deserve to know because if they don't find out from you then they'll wonder why you didn't tell them in the first place. This really doesn't sound like a big deal, but maybe there's something else I'm missing. Next time your family is brought up, you can tell them, or if you just want to tel them flat out randomly, that's fine. I hope this helps! AND RELAX! :)

If you aren't even close friends don't bother telling them. If they know your parents are divorced and you can trust them, you can tell them only if you feel comfortable because you don't need to tell anyone who ever you want to tell.. u tell.
=] hope i helpedd.
