What do you do if the week you’re going to propose to your girlfriend she tells you she’s pregnant
- Thread starter bkingUK
- Start date
Enlighten me on how an app is going to help you from knocking up your baby mama, btw, if you’re a GOT fan, you can now say you have a bastard. I’m discombobulated on who or why anyone would rely on an app for shit like that
Pregnancy can only occur when there is an egg being released for fertilization and eggs are released in a monthly cycle. The app probably predicts whether or not she is ovulating but that’s a really risky way to prevent pregnancies.
What I figured, stupid ass idea to go by that. I haven’t checked into pregnancy apps in a minute. I wouldn’t trust technology over nature.
Exchange the ring for a cheaper one.
All correct, well played. Likes for all you and the op
Or she used it as a deliberate tactic to get pregnant because she was tires of waiting on him to propose
Probably unlikely but that’s a far more interesting version.
My brother-in-law's wife lied to him about her cycle after they had their first child, he ended up with Irish twins. Actually he ended up with Irish triplets.
Smile...Grab her and Kiss Her...Tell her you Love Her...Then show her the ring and ask her to marry you...That's the PC Way to do it!!!
Spray and pray is the route I go, personally.
LOL. The pray part is important here. I used to subscribe to that theory until a couple years ago when I got the "we need to talk conversation" from my girlfriend of a few years.
Congrats man! Just make sure she understands you were planning to propose before she told you she was prego
Parenting is hard. Don’t try to be their friend. Life is changing and for the better! Congrats!

Its better than if it's the week she told you she used to be a guy, I guess?
In all seriousness, congrats! Having kids are amazing....at least that what everyone's been telling me the past 19 years.
I’m in the Chuck too. Getting married next April. Future Mrs GV and I are in our late 50s. The going rate for ANY decent venue in Charleston is 2K. And they STILL are sold out! She didn’t have her dream wedding her 1st time so we’re doing it large this time! She is widowed and I’m divorced. My only stipulation was that we have an open bar at the reception.
We’re having an open bar! And she is getting her dream wedding.
$2k for a wedding venue would be a steal here. Do you have to use their vendors?
I should have explained better. That 2K doesn’t include the reception or the vendors. Just a place to say “I do” and take the wedding pix.
The one thing my former mother in law and I agreed on in the time I knew her was that the wedding was always going to have an open bar. My wife fought against it to try and save a little money, but that notion was quickly dismissed. I think you made the correct call with the open bar. The second wedding though... ; ) I hope it all goes well!
Got it. I figured it didn't include vendors, but I thought it was the reception venue fee. That's probably typical for a ceremony fee today. Weddings are big business now! Idk how photographers can charge what they do.
Thanks! We’re going the non traditional route. Doing our own vows. The ladies (and bride) are wearing sneakers since she can’t wear heels. I told her if she turned into a bridezilla I’ll show up in a pair of size 13 heels.
Needless to say...she isn’t a bridezilla!
Does no one have stairs anymore? That should obviously be option A.
Congrats man!! The GF and I are expecting as well. The original plan was to move into a bigger house, get married, and then have a kid together. We sold my house, and I already know she'll say yes when I ask her to marry me. We've both already been married once, and her son loves me. Often times, more than his actual dad. Being a parent is a challenge most of the time, but the rewards are amazing if you're a good man. I'm super excited to be a dad to my own actual child, and I hope it's a boy for my own selfish reasons. Whatever we decide to do as far as a wedding is up in the air for now. Neither of us really want to have a big wedding for a 2nd time in our lives. The last year of my life has easily been the best, and I can't wait for what's on the way. (I know...cool story etc...) Cheers to you and yours brother! Life is good!
Edit...to say when I ask her to marry me. Not when.

Didn't post this for attention. Just wanted to entertain others with the situations I put myself in as it was completely unexpected. Having said that, she had a miscarriage. Don't make 100 posts saying sorry. We are both disappointed and relieved at the same time. It's a weird thing.
I'm now asking for the ring back now that it's not a shotgun wedding. Considering other options. joking. We are still getting married.

Humor is an effective medicine in any tough situation....so you're doing something right.
