Today, I got sick in the airsick bag as my flight landed. The woman next to me, trying to make me feel better, says "Don't handle landings too well?" I responded "No, I actually fly fine, I'm just 8 weeks pregnant." She looked at my left hand, noticed no ring, rolled her eyes and looked away. FML

You people do realize that not all people exchange rings when they are getting married. My cousins are SDA and they don't believe in wedding rings. They have three kids and I would hate for people to look down on her just b/c she isn't wearing a ring when she has been married for many years now.

Some people don't believe in a god, so the choose to not be married under a god. Marriage is a religious concept; if you don't have a religion, why bother getting married? Just because someone isn't married doesn't mean they can't have kids. That lady was quite rude :(

Ideology aside, I don't understand when people say they had kids first and waited to get married until they could afford the wedding. How could you afford to raise your kids if you couldn't afford a wedding?

Maybe, here's an idea, they only have so much money and decide to prioritize their children instead of their own wedding. ESPECIALLY if they want their dream wedding one day. I mean, do you know just what a "proper" wedding dress (that is, a dress especially made to be a wedding dress) costs? It's close to robbery, tbh.

Some poeple think they so high and mighty. So what you didn't have a ring

Jesus, the nerve of some people -_-

Big deal your pregnant and unmarried you could have just realized you lost your engagement/wedding band...I lose my ring quite often

Yeeeeeeeah, my parents ARE married, but they got married the same day that I was baptised, because they just kind of thought it was practical ^^ OR she could just be on her way of becoming a single mom, and there's nothing wrong with that either. /shrug

Marriage doesn't mean more love then not married. Case in point, a random married man/woman might have an affair and or raise the chile in a way that they develop into a moron like thier parents while the unmarried couple remain loyal to eachother and raise their kid to be a kind caring person. It's not about labels and certificates. It's about the individual cases

Some people choose not to marry. I have a friend who's Aunt has been with the same person for 11 years because they dont want to spend all that money on marriage, and then if they break up, all that money, too. The man is considered a part of their family and they respect him as much as they would if they were married. Some people just dont believe in marriage.

Heh.... Those looks don't get any better if you're walking down the street with your pram alone either...

I'd have looked at her hand then at her and said 'You're one to talk.' Then throw up on her.
