Après lunch conversation

I was walking back from a delightful lunch with J a few minutes ago, and we were talking about couples. Specifically, people who have different ideas about having children and talk each other into or out of having kids.
Here’s the conversation we had:

Les: If you can talk someone into or out of having children, that’s bad.
J: Right?
Les: How do you even talk someone into it?
J: Oops honey, I stopped taking my pill.
Les: I forgot… I thought they were tic-tacs… Those are my inactive pills… Pills? What pills?
-We laugh-
Then, seriously:
Les: Um, that could be me.
J: That could be me too.
… … …
J: This conversation never happened.
Les: Agreed.*



*except I just told the internet. Oops.

I feel like I wasn't supposed to finish that post and bust out laughing, but I totally did due to it's very sweet honesty.

I actually KNOW someone who stopped taking her pills AND started taking fertility vitamins without telling her boyfriend. They are now married and have a delightful little boy, but I got to tell you: I can already smell divorce.

Yeah, I know people that have done it, too. It is NOT OK.
