I wonder how a man experiences a pregnancy with a loving partner after having conspired to terminate a pregnancy with a different loving partner some years ago. Those experiences must be hard to reconcile.
Hard to reconcile? Impossible to reconcile would be closer to reality with one exception… that being forgiveness from the ultimate Higher Power has been asked for and received. In fact, you can take the word ‘pregnancy’ out of that statement and insert the word ‘sex’ in instead…. and whether you are a man or a woman, the impact of sexual relationships on later relationships are ALWAYS deeply negative. Sin has a way of affecting one for all his/her life until it is forgiven.
When you kill a child conceived in love it is hard for the love that produced that child to survive.
