I did something so very funny today while trying to move on

okey-dokey, going with my whole 'post-girlfriend, move on' thing; I decided to ask out a chick in my university history class that I've been acquainted with for about a year (we've had a few classes together; flirt and cut up, tuff like that). Lately these last few months she's been skipping quit e afew classes, and has seemed really distracted.
So, after class today I caught up with her on her way to her car. I was like "Hey [CHICK'S NAME], you want to go out this weekend?" She kinda smiled a little, then almost burst into tears (which is the one thing you DON'T want a chick to do when you ask her out). And she tells me "If you'd have asked me this a few months ago I would have... but now I'm pregnant (two months)." After whiping the wtf? look off my face, she went on to tell me that she got knocked up, and the guy ditched her. I was, like, the first person she's told. So, I didn't get the girl; but I feel SO MUCH BETTER having asked her out; just cuz two years ago I'd have never had the cahonnies to randomly ask out a good-looking chick.
Just thought I'd share that kinda funny (from my perspective, not hers cuz she's knocked up) story with you guys...
my friends, I can pick a winner...

Awww, that's sad. You should hang out with her anyway so she doesn't feel lonely.

I thought about it, I probably will.

Definately. Be her friend and build a foundation there. If it goes any further, fine. If not, great. You'll have a good, strong friendship (obviously she's willing to share things with you).

I thought about that; a friend of mine went through a similiar situation a while back, and if there's one thing I learned from her it's that you can't have too many friends when going through something like that.

yep; just think if something you couldn't do while you were with your girlfriend (i.e. ask out the chich in my history class) and do it. It'll make you feel a little better, even if it doesn't work out.

First he thinks he may want to go out with her...then he wants to be the baby's father/figure? Whew, big leap.

I'm not too big a fan of the insta-family.
Kinda funny ya know; of all the chicks in that class, the one I hit on is knocked up. Go figure.
That, my friends, shows how bad a taste I have in randomly picking women.

Knocked up. Such an endearing term.

Well, I didn't really mean it in a negative way; just kinda the best way to put it.

DUDE, just think, if you would have asked her out 2 months ago too, she wouldn't have gotten pregnant from some asshole!
Oh well, that's how life works.
Good job with the courage my man. *Thumbs up!*

Or maybe he would have "knocked her up"
