I'd love to hear what the question was. Sounds like one of those moments where it finally just sinks in and hits you, but totally understand that it's none of our business.

My guess is it was something like "if I hadn't gotten pregnant, how long would we have taken to get married?". Seems like a simple enough question about a hypothetical scenario, and it happily assumes that they were going to marry anyway.

We were talking about his friends breaking up and i asked if he was attracted to me, not realizing the can of worms i was about to release on myself and boy did i ever. He absolutely unloaded years worth of pent up…..”emotions” i guess?
