I'm sorry about your news. There are many definitions of family in this day and age. Giving birth is only one way to build a family. Medical and scientific advances have helped many couples become parents. Adoption is another. About 20% of my sorority sisters were adopted. Adoption is a wonderful way to build a family.
Your boyfriend was wrong to say what he did. There are many men who are very open minded about adoption. I know a woman who was told that she shouldn't have children due to a health condition. Her boyfriend was a very "decent guy" who was only concerned about his girlfriend's health and happiness. I hope that you meet someone like him. You deserve a lot better.
Ditto to everything that carnation wrote.
