The guy I've been seeing for the last six weeks told me this morning that he got a woman he works with pregnant. She's about six weeks along, actually.
I was floored by this for two reasons:
1) He's Mr. Careful about condom use, but apparently wasn't using using them with her. It seems he'd been seeing her on and off for a few months. She was on the Nuva-Ring and her Mormon grandfather doctor gave her antibiotics but didn't inform her that antibiotics weaken the efficacy of hormonal birth control.
This woman has a JD and works at a top NYC firm and she doesn't know that?Even smart women can try to force things along a bit by being manipulative. I'm projecting here, but it just sounds...off.
2) My saga with my ex a while back. This is like a fucking running theme now.
We spoke on the phone for a while earlier and he wants to see me after he gets back from a work trip but before I go back to Europe. But any progress in the romantic aspect of the relationship has come to a screeching halt.
As of now they're not sure what they're going to do, but I have a feeling she'll keep it.
Of course, six weeks isn't six years like with the last guy this happened with, but yeah, this hurts. It's not agonizing, but it hurts. I've been good at learning to under-react for the past few months. I'm having some Xanax before bed tonight and allowing myself a little cry.
Oh, well. Moving right along. Again.

Maybe you should go after women for awhile instead of men, it could help!
