I've been getting a lot of migraines lately. I haven't been eating as well, but my parents have me so limited on grocery money that it's hard to buy food that's good for me.

Solumina · 06-25-2008, 02:07 PM

That really sucks,why of all things would they limit something that is so important?

korinna5555 · 06-25-2008, 02:45 PM

Um.. I have no clue.

I get a whole whopping $200 per month, and that's for food, soap/shampoo, and clothes! IT DOESN"T COVER FOOD! Not with prices lately..

Solumina · 06-25-2008, 02:56 PM

Gah, that is about what I spend a month on food alone, and I at least I have a Costco membership so I can buy things at really, really low prices. Why do your parents have you buying your own food anyway?

korinna5555 · 06-25-2008, 06:41 PM

Apparently, I waste food. You know me well enough to know that's a load of bull.

Moldy porkchop in the fridge? I don't eat pork.
Moldy cheese? I can't have dairy.
IT'S NOT FUCKING ME.

I'm also getting bitched at to get a job. I have no transportation, therefore, no way to get to any job I get.
I ask for a car. (they've been talking about buying me one)
"Not until you get a job" ARGHHHHHH.

Well apparently Peter Murphy performed 17 miles away from me but I missed him because I am too fucking broke.

Crap.

Splintered · 06-25-2008, 10:46 PM

My girlfriend might be pregnant.

I think I'm going to go puke now.

Splintered · 06-25-2008, 11:37 PM

Okay.

I've calmed down a bit.

Warning: Adult crap ahead.

So basically, my girlfriend and I were intimate. We weren't having intercourse, but we were doing everything else we could think of.

What happened is, she managed to coax my creamy Italian out, and I got some of it on my hands. The last I remember is, I wiped my hands against my boxers to put the goo out of the way.

I then proceeded to give her the one handed ride to heaven, and she had a great time doing it.

Last night it occurred to me that my little swimmers might still be kicking it on the hand, even though I wiped them off.

The scary part is I'm not sure if I wiped it all off, because at the time I was more focused on the love canal then being surgical clean. (Bad mistake).

So I'm waiting for her to take a pregnancy test, and even though she's had bleeding today (A hopeful sign of a period), and cramps (Another hopeful sign), I'm still riding the worry-express.

The thing is, I don't have many people I can talk to about this. We already stopped by Planned Parenthood today (Who got a lovely $50 donation), and the Doc said there was pretty much nothing to worry about.

I really hope she's okay. I keep reading forum stories that say she is, saying that sperm can't survive in the air for too long before my swimmers kick the bucket, and I have yet to come across a story where someone got successfully pregnant off of fingering.

I'll keep you guys posted on what happens, because right now I'm going to try and get some sleep.

Edit: I've learned my lesson too, by the way. Oooooh how I've learned my lesson.

Safety first kids.

Splinter, don't worry the chance is extremely slim that she's pregnant. Sperm are very sensitive to temperature change. Just a couple degree below body temperature would immediately kill it.

She has irregular periods, so she can't really keep track on them.

We didn't plan on intercourse either, so no sense in bringing condoms, and she doesn't have access to birth control.

In retrospect it was an extremely dumb move on my part. Extremely dumb.

I hope so. I really hope so.

Honestly, I think this is the first time I've ever wished for a low sperm count.

Cicero · 06-26-2008, 12:06 AM

Splintered - Even in unprotected intercourse the chance of pregnancy (according to my reproduction lectures in biology this semester) is only 85%. Now add in the fact that only a fraction of the millions of sperm that would usually be let loose in there could possibly have gained access, and that fact that she's already showing signs of a period, I'd say you have very little to worry about.

I've got to say though, it's good that you're worried about it. Too many people live by 'It'll never happen to me' and end up making terrible mistakes.

Splintered · 06-26-2008, 12:15 AM

I've been worried about it all day. As I've said, we've already seen Planned Parenthood, and the next time we're planning on anything, I'm stocking up on spermicide and condoms, and whatever else I can get my hands on.

I think I'm just over-worrying right now. The numbers are messing with my mind, I guess.

Appearantly, she was on the "last day" of her fertile period, and she should be starting her period soon. She's already had spotting and cramping, but I'm not sure if that's because she's pregnant, or because she's having her period.

It's really not fun when your mind begins to warp what you read, either. As soon as you read the symptoms, you begin to imagine their happening.

I suppose there's nothing I can do now, and it's a waiting game. I guess it just feels good to rant for a while.

Thanks all for listening.

Well may this isnt a such bad experience after all. This will make you think twice before you screwing someone.

I was lucky enough to know many girls who got pregnant early or young couple who messed their life up due to unplanned children. It have always make me think twice before I do anything. I could have lose my virgin WAY earlier than I did but... Fear of having kids was ALWAYS lingering in back of my head so I held off.

Even to this day I still DON'T want kids! So I'm still extremely caution when it come to having sex.

BTW Cicero offered some great advice.

Tea and Cake or Death · 06-26-2008, 03:19 AM

Be Chill, Masada. It's highly unlikely that she's pregnant for most of the reasons listed above. Especially Barffing_Rat's point about the fragile spermies. It's true. Most times they don't survive on a surface such as your hand, thanks to their super sensitivity to life outside of a human body....but you should still ALWAYS play it safe. At the risk of sounding like and after school special....Pregnancy isn't the only thing that can come from bodily fluids, ya'know.

Seriously.
I have to buy my own food, soap and shit, clothes, birth control, you name it...and my parents don't give me any money.
Granted, I have a job, but I make just over minimum wage, and I don't have a car, and my parents don't even give me rides to work, so even more of my money goes just to getting to my job.

You should bring condoms not if you plan on having sex, but if you plan on coming.

Not only that, but often sex isn't planned...it just happens.

badteccy · 06-26-2008, 11:28 AM

My parents give me that amount of money and I do fine. They support me though because...well, I work my ass of at school and I have been working since I was 14...I just cant seem to find a job this summer...

xParadigmx · 06-26-2008, 11:40 AM

I honestly don't think the two of your situations are comparable.

No, I mean, I don't get why they wouldn't be comparable.

We both live at home, and are in the same age range.
I WISH my parents gave me $200 a month. That'd be fucking insane.

Well, for starters, comparisons like that don't get anybody anywhere. The two of you also have different environments, and different factors at play. Since neither of you can know all of the factors, a fair comparison cannot be made. So it's not so much that one can't be made, it's that it shouldn't be.

And what's more important: why the hell would you WANT to?
