My [28 m] girlfriend [24 f] got pregnant, her parents wanted her to have an abortion, but she refused and we eloped and got married. Now her parents have disowned her and I feel guilty for all of this trouble.

If she wanted to marry some rich guy or keep on her parent's dime, she knew where she could go to do that. She loves you, she kept the baby, she married you. You don't get to decide that she doesn't think you were worth that.

I know I'm unbelievably lucky to have such a great woman as my wife. Her parents are very wealthy, they groomed her to be like them but she is now living in much humbler circumstances to be with me and have my baby. I would never "shit on her decision", her decision took a lot of guts and nobility and I admire her profoundly for it. Part of me has felt guilty for her change in circumstances, but I am starting to forget that now because she is genuinely happy as my wife and having our baby.
