"Whom Do I Abort?" (Abortion Saga)

A young female friend of mine met a guy 18 months back; they decided getting serious 9 months ago notwithstanding the age difference of 15 years and their constant disagreements over trivial issues. After some months, the babe met another guy at the cinemas, tall, handsome, averagely built, good sense of humour, focused and career oriented, he was what you could call “SENT FROM HEAVEN”. The look in his eyes alone could make a woman quiver and the tone in his voice made her tremble with affection. He was a perfect gentleman. Every woman’s dream. Yet he was all alone at the cinemas.

Then she quickly recalled back her senses as she was lost fantasizing about so many things. As fate would have it the guy made a pass at her and she couldn’t help but respond to his advances. They got talking even up till the end of the movie which they saw together.

He was so attentive, calm and very sensitive to her plight. The good thing was that, he was a lot younger and seemed so perfect for her. Things happened so fast, they started seeing and the babe along the line (opened up about her other relationship) but refused talking about it because she wanted to keep the seemingly “perfect guy” probably with the hope that the other serious dude would naturally fizzle out with time. The “perfect guy” was very patient with her. After all, she willingly admitted being in another affair without much probing. The new guy played down on it, waved a white flag, Though, he refused getting serious with her, they still kept seeing each other and could barely do without one another in a day.

Alas, the unexpected happened. The result of unprotected sex “PREGNANCY”. She took in for the so called “IMPERFECT GUY”, the one she wanted to discard. She decided to admit as usual to the “THE PERFECT GUY” that she was pregnant and the pregnancy wasn’t his, but with the request that he permitted her to abort the pregnancy. Complicated right?

The “imperfect guy” wants her to keep the pregnancy and he is even ready to marry her in weeks to come. She disclosed all these to the “PERFECT GUY”. The perfect guy on his own part said he wanted things serious all along but because of her relationship with the other guy. He decided to take things slower and stated that he also wants to marry her too but on the condition she had an abortion. The lady seems to be in a dilemma as both men are really serious.

Looking at this peculiar scenario from another angle objectively, let me state that, I have never been in support of abortion as I consider it a crime. Why would you want to kill what you can’t create? After all she knew all along that unprotected sex could lead to pregnancy. The other guy who owns the pregnancy ought to have sensed or know that the lady does not intend to spend her life with him, if he wants a baby and she doesn’t and for the fact that he has proposed marriage. If she goes ahead to abort the baby, what is the guarantee that the other perfect guy would marry her? I am trying to put myself in the perfect guy’s shoes and to imagine my actions. I would hands off the lady to let her decide what to do with the pregnancy after all its her life, I would not want to put myself in a situation where she would point fingers at me in the nearest future that I made her do what she did not want to do. What happens if after the abortion the womb is damaged? What happens after our marriage she cannot give birth? Will I be ready to face all these with her? The situation is dicey and we could go on and on debating about this. Then I ask myself, But who am I to start giving lessons on it. After all, I have never been in that situation before right? So many arguments and objections from left and right. But I decided to share this with you all so that we could put heads together, reason and proffer solutions. What are your thoughts on this? Urgent help is needed as your advices will go along way (via your comments).
