[quote=Anonymous]20:54 - I got the question, "who's the dad?" quite a bit, because he was outside of our circle and I'm discreet about my love life, so people didn't know I was seeing someone. I gave the inner circle the bullet points (guy I was dating, got pregnant unexpectedly, relationship didn't survive the shock, but we're doing well as coparents) and it worked out fine. I was embarrassed at first because I felt it made me look like some dumb person who didn't understand birth control (it failed) but I mostly got over that. A lot of the families at school assume we're married and our level of closeness determines whether I correct them or not. Sometimes I just let the "your husband" comments slide because neither of us care. Once we get closer, I'll say, "we're actually no longer together." I consider it a testament to our good relationship that people don't realize we're apart.[/quote]
