This Person Ruined a Woman's Pregnancy Announcement. Did They Act Like a Jerk?

Now, this is a weird story!

I’m talking about a story that is so far out there I had to read it twice to make sure I was getting it all straight.

I’m just gonna let the story do the talking here…

Take a look…

AITA for ruining a pregnancy announcement by telling the woman she may have taken the wrong test?

“My husband and I (30m, 30f) recently invited eight friends for lunch and were asked if we could also include a new couple, Doug and Sasha (both 30s).

We have never met them, but everyone who was invited has, so we said sure. At one point Sasha needed to use the restroom, and I told her to use the master since the other bathroom was occupied. I was helping my husband finish with food when Sasha came out of the master bawling and holding something in her hand.

At first I thought she hurt herself, but she said something to Doug that caused him to drop to his knees, cry, and begin kissing her stomach. All of our friends begin screaming, jumping, and crying. It was insane. Finally, Sasha tells my husband and I that she is pregnant.

Of course, we congratulate both she and Doug and gave them a bag for the test (their request). I will admit I did find it odd that she brought a pregnancy test and took it at a complete stranger’s house, but I did not say that.

Once everyone sat down to eat Sasha said: OP, I hope you don’t mind that I used one of your pregnancy tests. I just saw them and had to. I responded (confused) I don’t have pregnancy tests. Sasha says yes, in your drawer.

I asked Sasha if she meant the blue box in the back of my lower left drawer that was closed. She seemed to realize I was pointing out that she basically snooped and sheepishly said the box said pregnancy for pregnancy test. I said Sasha, the brand is Pregmate and those are ovulation tests. I do not own pregnancy tests. Did you take an ovulation test?

Doug freaked the absolute F out at me saying his wife was not an idiot and can read a box. He insisted Sasha get the test out and show me that I’m wrong. Sasha refused saying she didn’t need to prove anything to a complete stranger and insisted they leave immediately. One of the couples thought Doug and Sasha acted ridiculous.

The other three couples thought I should have pulled Sasha aside to discuss my concerns and said I was an asshole for saying something in front everyone. Honestly, the whole situation caught me off guard and everything happened so quickly. The whole thing was bizarre and confusing. I just didn’t have time to put the pieces together mentally before asking about the ovulation tests.

Also, I found out later through one of our friends that Sasha did take an ovulation test, and she is not pregnant.”
