For people who have had an abortion: what did someone in your life say/do that helped you realize that getting an abortion was the best choice for you?

I got majorly angry so angry at 8 weeks very emotional based decision but turned out for the best

Anyway so one day the father and I were in his vehicle and backstory this guy is 32 years old and he was a piece of work let me tell you this guy pressured me who was 18 at the time into his harem. He had a wife who was okay with him seeing other women but it is shitty because I only knew he was polyamorous after I got attached and got pregnant. I only knew dude for 2mo. Anyway I learned that I was as monogamous as they come and we'd fight a lot because I was pregnant and he was just not making me feel secure at all but I was attached and scared but loved the pregnancy. He was abusive emotionally physically and sexually and mentally too but I was blind to it at the time. I was confused though because he went to every appointment and didn't seem unhappy. He was an ass but not abut the pregnancy. He never showed much emotion though.

Anyway we were in his vehicle and he's talking about new girls I don't even know about. I thought it was just going to be me him and the wife like he said. He's talking very calm saying how he's gonna move in his other girlfriend didn't even ask if I was ok having these people I don't know around my baby. He said he's concerned he's going to have to sacrifice his fun with his other girls so I gotta take care of the baby at night and be the primary parent. He worked from home little hours but good money for context. At that very moment I realize that he's a total degenerate. Being young I thought he was mysterious and stoic and masculine but then I was just like "im not having your baby" 3 days later I go to my abortion appointment and became childfree and also partnerfree fuxk that noise.
