I was 20 and about to pursue my medical education (i wanted to be an OB-GYNE)but I got pregnant. I had to skip a semester and lessen my subject load so I could carry my pregnancy and still study. I was 7 months pregnant when my parents found out and wanted it aborted. I told them, I would rather you disown me than kill my baby.
The father of my daughter is a weakling, a mama's boy...and though I knew the stigma of being a single mother of an illegitimate child...I refused to marry the guy bcoz I dont want to be tied to a marriage because I got knocked up.
I waited 4 years for the guy to mature, grow up and be the man, instead, I heard he got married to another woman of the same faith (Iglesia ni Cristo). it devastated me, but I moved on.
3 years later, i fell in love...and we lived together and only after we had a son, i found out he was married with 2 daughters...SHOCK THE SYEETTT OUT OF ME.
Nonetheless, I moved on...scratched and scraped to earn a living for my 2 kids. 7 year I worked and when I got the opportunity to go abroad, I went to Qatar not knowing what. And I did went through a lot of shyett here.
Now, I'm ok, a great job with a good pay. I'm getting married very soon and maybe go home and be with my kids.
Its gonna be a long road with twists and turns, we will fall down...but we will prevail if we persevere.
