I was just about to recommend this. A friend says she’s made more progress with forgiving herself than she did in years of therapy.[/quote]

Maybe OP's fiance doesn't feel any guilt or need to forgive herself. Most women don't. [/quote]

Sorry, every study indicates most women do feel guilt.  you are a troll.[/quote]

Um, no.  Exactly the opposite.  Most women feel relief after abortion care, not regret.  Regret about an unplanned pregnancy is not the same as regret about abortion care.  Personally, i wish I had not gotten pregnant in college.  (I wish I had not gotten drugged while at a bar and woken up with a stranger raping me the next morning, I wish he had not infected me with two STDs, I wish I did not have to live in terror of HIV afterward.  I regret a lot about the pregnancy.  But I don't for a minute regret the abortion.  I am so grateful to the doctors and nurses who cared for me and for being able to end the pregnancy as soon as possible after discovering it.  (I wish EC had been available then.  I wish a medical abortion earlier had been available; instead I had to wait until a surgical abortion was possible at 6 weeks.)

I was Catholic then and I had no regrets then.  I'm no longer Catholic and I have no regrets now.  Study after study shows that most women who have abortions do not regret the abortion care.  If they regret anything, most women regret being in circumstances which required abortion care, not the procedure itself.  Vast differencez[/quote]
