my story-- almost 4 years later

[selfcomposed]

I was 19, in college, planning on going to medical school.

I knew what birthcontrol was, and I knew what condoms were. I had limited sexual experience, but I knew that I did't want to get pregnant.

I didn't use anything. I didn't protect myself. my boyfriend (then, now husband) was told that he would not be able to reproduce, and boy were they

Yes thank you for shareing..
I felt the same way no regret ever I was sort of sad but I knew it was what was best.

do you really want people who would judge you as friends? people who judge us for our actions dont deserve our resions.. they can sit up high where they thing they are on there pedistool and judge all they want they dont matter what matters is how you feel not them!

in all honesty, I judge people all the time. I know that shouldn't, but I still do. I think that people judge, and even though they are told that they shouldn't-- they still do. I do know that when I judge a person, I try to put that aside when I meet them or talk to them, but I don't think that others are that self aware to do so.

"I guess the hardest part was getting over the fact that I didn't feel any grief. I was sad because I thought that's what I was supposed to do."

Shit!!
That was *the* hardest part of my first abortion. It took me years to figure out what was bugging me, and then it hit me: I was feeling guilty for not feeling guilty!
From that moment on, I have not had a single moment's doubt or regret about what I did.

It was the right thing to do!!
