You talk about your situation as if something terrible just happened to you through no fault of your own. You got pregnant with someone who is clearly not ready to make a commitment to you. That's 100% preventable sista.

Well we were using protection so it's not like I planned to get pregnant.
Our first date was kinda lame, he took me to Arby's but he paid so I think that counts. When I told him we were pregnant his first words were "Really?!" but in a totally excited voice. Then he scooped me up and gave me a big hug. I don't want to go into a lot of my private business but I think I'm pretty mature because at 20 I have a degree and a job and I really helped my mom out with taking care of my younger siblings (who are like 10 years younger than me).
I hope he sprung for the 5 for 5. Although I think it is like 7 dollars now, so I realize that could be considered a hardship.

Oh, I love me some Arby's. Those potato cake things with the bacon flavoring. I mean, those are genius.
But, as a first date it is cheap and uninventive. And you are reproducing with him. It's fine though, because my kids are going to need someone to serve them those potato cake things too one day.
I'm really not that high mantenance and I don't expect a huge proposal. Something sweet and just the two of us with maybe some balloons or flowers would be nice. I'm fine with a small ring too especially because we have to be responsible now that we are going to be parents.

Ooh, you know what would be nice? One of those balloon artists. They could make you a hat and him a sword, and then he could propose with a balloon dog holding a ring from Zales.
I'm challenging this.
It's not funny, but I'm going to say that that ship has pretty much sailed for the majority of us. Being knocked up at 21 by your high school sweetheart is sadly not something most of us here are going to have the opportunity to experience.
Ha ha that is really funny!
expensive no, but then i didn't get pregnant and act like we should be so mature as to now get married and stuff and then justify how prepared we were for it.
but inventive yes. like the time we got t-bell and sat under the flight path next to the airport watching planes take off.
Damnit. There goes my plans for us in September.
"That chick wins at Penises, for sure." -- Fenton
that would be magical.
any is it damnit or dammit. i can never decide.

Cali and I are MFEO, in a vocabulary sort of way.
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
Moo and I are going to get gay married and make rules about how to spell non-words.
I believe I have previously explained the difference between hippy and hippie.
"That chick wins at Penises, for sure." -- Fenton
I'm not sure if you have, at least not to me. But flower children, socialists, and dudes with long hair who make their living playing the guitar are all hippies. Hippie, singular.
Hippy isn't a word. But I guess it could be someone with big hips.
Cali, where do you stand on hon vs. hun as a term of endearment?
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
It should be hon. But my dad calls me that so I hate it as a term of endearment and would prefer it be stricken from the record along with "babe". (Although I occasionally call Mr. Spiderman "hunnybunny" as a super sappy pet name, so the use of the improper spelling is just to sell the over-the-topness of it all. Plus I like symmetry.)
And since you are correct in your hippy/hippie definitions, I will let you hold the scanner thing when we register for china.

I think Cali may be on to something. The relationships board also has this "Yet to be engaged" girl

And an engaged one who got this wise advice from your new friend luvmybabe
It is really immature to give someone the silten treatment.
