<human>: My current SO doesn't like the idea of an abortion if the mom's life isn't at stake or if it isn't a rape scenario. I had an abortion (Not his kid.) when I was 19. I'm turning 21 in September.  I knew before I even got knocked up that was the route I'd take if it ever happened. The first thing I thought when I saw that positive pregnancy test was, "How much does an abortion cost, and how am I going to get this covered?"

My reasons for getting it were because I just plain didn't want a kid, and I didn't want to be pregnant. 

Whenever I encounter someone who I feel deserves to know, like my current SO, and I know their feelings on the topic, I tell them that my pregnancy was high risk. I tell them that I would have had my life at stake if I'd gone full term. I tell them my heart was racing, and nothing the doctors did would slow it down, and I would have had to been on crazy amounts of medication and there was still a big chance both the fetus and I would have died, so I chose to terminate. This is a great big lie, but it's partially true. During my pregnancy, my heart rate was considerably faster than normal, but it wasn't life threatening.

Whatever the case, this is something I needed to say. I don't regret my decision in terminating. Not one bit. I'm not here to start an argument about pro life vs. pro choice. What's done is done, and if I could go back in time and face the decision again, I wouldn't have done anything different. I had an abortion, and I'm totally fine now.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: I tell certain people I had an abortion because being pregnant was gonna kill me, but I actually did it because I just didn't want a baby.
