Aborted Baby

When she told him that she was pregnant, it made his heart melt. But then she had an abortion and didn't even ask how he felt. Yes, it was her body but it was her husband's baby too. He couldn't forgive her because of what she decided to do. When she had the abortion, she didn't consider his feelings. He hasn't fully recovered even after twelve years of healing. If she didn't want to have children, she shouldn't have gotten married. She destroyed a part of him when she ended the life that she once carried. He figured that since she didn't want his baby that she didn't want him either. That's what made him decide to pack his bags and leave her. He was so devastated that he has vowed never to get married again. Before wives have abortions, they should consider that it can really hurt their men.
