Ive now had to take the emergancy contraceptive pill and have told my boyfriend. He was really understanding when i told him, but now 1 day later he is hardly speaking to me and i don't want to pester him and don't want to lose him. We are both dealing with the same thing but he has over reacted big time. Now i feel lonely. How should i handle this without scaring him away?? Reply to this Question

You're the one that has to deal with side effects of the pill and the morning after pill. He just gets the benefits.
If he's that bothered then he can use condoms too so that everything isn't entirely down to you and you have added the added protection.
My point is, this isn't entirely your problem and he needs to grow up, get over himself and take some responsibilty instead of sulking off in a mood when things get a bit difficult.

 He is obviously scared right now, and I bet you are too. Tell him you need him to get through this so that whatever happens you can get deal with this together. Dont get cross just tell him you understand exactly how he is feeling but unfortunately you cant run away from this and will have to deal with the consequences so need him right now. I wish you luck x
