When I was in college, I was in the middle of a sort of group project that was going to go late into the night when I received “the text” from my then girlfriend.
I can’t remember the exact words, but it was along the lines of “I think I might be pregnant.”
I won’t lie to you, I think I probably turned white as a ghost.
I’m not proud of the fact that I kind of left my fellow students hanging as I made some vague excuse to leave, buy a pregnancy test, and head to her apartment. Turns out it was a false alarm, but I am proud enough to say that as freaked out as my college boy self was, I didn’t react anywhere near as badly as the guys in these anonymous stories. Because, woof.
