DEAR DEIDRE: SHORTLY after my ex-boyfriend ghosted me, I found out I was pregnant.

I was devastated by our break-up, as I had thought he was “The One”. I didn’t know what to do for the best.

I’m 29 years old and my ex is 34. We were together for a year, until he suddenly stopped replying to my messages and calls.

Confused and scared, I wrote to you for advice.

You told me that I legally didn’t have to tell him about the baby.

However you did mention to me that he had a legal obligation to provide for the child, regardless of whether we were together.

You were so kind and understanding. Then, tragically, I had a late miscarriage, and I did inform my ex.

He rejected me all over again, accusing me of lying to win him back.
I was shocked by how cold and nasty he was.

That’s when your support became even more invaluable.

You helped me to grieve for my loss, sending me your miscarriage support pack, with details of organisations who could be there for me.

And you made me see that I had dodged a bullet by not having this man in my life.

Thank you.

DEIDRE SAYS: Your boyfriend’s behaviour was callous.

I’m glad I could be there for you at such a difficult time.
