Today, my 18-year-old boyfriend freaked out and kept asking me if I was sure I wouldn't get pregnant, because I forgot to take my birth control pill last night. We didn't actually have sex; he apparently thought me simply missing the pill would magically get me pregnant. The hell? FML

If you had sex this week it's possible. Sperm lives in the body for a lot longer than you'd expect.

Sex education was lost on this poor soul

If he knows this much about reproduction, he shouldn't reproduce!

He's right to be nervous. What if you had sex a week or less ago?

I can understand his fright. I always say if you dance in the sprinkler wear a raincoat even if she says the sprinkler is a safe place. You can never be to protected if you don't want to be a parent.

Sjovt hvordan fyre ikke ved så meget om pigeting :) det bliver sjældent bedre med alderen, de fleste sidst i 20'erne ved heller ikke noget haha

Actually, sperm can live up to five days in the Fallopian tubes, so if a sperm managed to snake its way up there and you ovulated due to missing a pill, you could actually get pregnant. Life is a sneaky little bastard

And everyone in the comment section becomes a reproductive health specialist instantly.

Missing one pill won't decrease its effectiveness. Two or more and you should use additional protection. Try to educate your boyfriend to save his future girlfriends from his stupidity.

i had a boyfeiend that thought if i took prenatals it made me fertile. he had three college degrees. clearly none of thrm were in biology or medicine.

If he's really that nervous about it he shouldn't be having sex. Birth control does fail sometimes. Pregnancy is always a possibility. A small possibility, but a possibility nonetheless.

Leave him. He needs to never reproduce ever.
