My boyfriend usually knows when I am on my period and knows to stay away from anything sexual during those few days. I'm supposed to be on it right now but I'm running a bit late. When I tried to well...start things with him today he questioned my period. I simply explained that I was a little late but it's no big deal because it's not unusual for me. Well, that didnt help at all and now his is over his head in fear.
I know I'm not--but he won't be satisfied until I get my period. He wants to tell his mother about it and I cant seem to talk to him out of it. I asked him to give it a few days before saying anything but he won't listen.
I dont want his mother to think we're being irresponsible when nothing is certain. If in fact we are pregnant, I will certainly go to both sets of parents with him--but not until then. How can I get him to understand?

All decisions, such as when and how to go about telling the parents, should be decided TOGETHER. Make sure he knows and understands that you want to tell his mom TOGETHER.
He's jumping the gun, here. If he wants to do something, he should buy a pregnancy test. Or at least be there when you take it.
I mean, really, what good would he be doing by telling is mom that you are late? She's just going to tell him you need to take a test...

Make sure you carry a purse so all the evidence can be put in the purse so no one that you dont want know wont know what your doing. If it comes back negative, your in the clear. If it doesnt, them prepare your attack plan. [ khadiya's advice column | Ask khadiya A Question ]
