please shoot me

so im walking out ofthe ladies room at work and i pass a woman i know in passing. we exchange pleasantries, blah blah and then she goes, 'Julie?' and i turn. and she goes, 'are you pregnant?'
and of course, the answer is NO. NO NO NO NO.
cue the wine and cigarettes. i want to shoot myself

that is just plain out RUDE!!
someone did that do my best friend and she was so upset for days!
i could never say that to someone unless i know they are ready to pop! or if i know that they are officially pregnant


sorry you had to deal with that.. people have no common sense sometimes

ETA... spelling!

Ugh! People are just total dummies!!

I never get used to people doing that. so presumptuous and incredibly rude!!! Why not just answer

No... are YOU???

Shoot the woman instead for being so DUMB !
Everyone knows that you never ask a woman if she is pregnant.
Could be bloating, could be a bad outfit, could be too much eating.

UGH. It happens to a lot of us honey. The best way to handle it is to be airy about it-makes em feel awful. 'Say 'Nope but we will be trying ina few months' Grab the belly and say 'Guess my body is getting me prepped.'

Dont let her get to you.

SO RUDE. A WOMAN should know NEVER to ask that. I don't care if someone is 9 months preggo & an arm is hanging out of their growler, you NEVER ask that.


Just wait until AFTER you give birth & people are still asking you when you are due...

Don't let it get to you - besides the fact that it was incredibly rude, Miss Thing clearly had distorted vision because you are beautiful!!

One time I was crossing a street and a guy in his car unrolled the window and yelled 'hurry up, fata$$!'

Almost 2 years ago I gained a lot of weight. Someone yelled at me for having a smoke and said 'You shouldn't smoke when you are pregnant'-I was like, I am not pregnant and that was rude.

And when I got engaged and announced that my wedding was in 6 months, those rumors were flying too...but stopped when I started to lose more weight.

Now as a married woman, if I get on a food kick, oh, look you are having cravings. I am at a baby shower-'oh this is going to be you next'-NO

People are just rude and run their mouthes. Just call them out and then ignore them. I would never say that to anyone unless they confirmed a pregnancy!

UGH! That is soooooo rude! It's happened to me before - I even had a cab driver ARGUE with me! He said something about when am I due and I didn't get it - I finally did and was like, 'um I am NOT pregnant' and he actually said 'oh honey, you can't hide those things, its ok'.



Then another time I was holding the door open for a girl coming into the building behind me and she said 'Thanks! Oh, are you pregnant???' all high pitched and excited. I looked her dead in the face and said, 'no I'm just fat' and walked away.

I am thankfully NOT as fat as I was back when these things were said but it has always boggled me how rude people can be!!! At least you are not alone!
