Oh I see, so the issue here is that I didn’t make a thread about a condom breaking and how I didn’t take plan B so that I can be torn apart to shreds even further on here. I’m starting to realize I’m just the entertainment at this point.
Being so careless about accidental pregnancies is not a laughing matter to me.

No, it's just so weird to be reading along about a guy you seem unsure about and then noticed you casually drop in the idea that you wouldn't mind finding yourself pregnant with his child.

As someone else pointed out, no contraception is 100%, so in my opinion it’s pretty careless to have sex thinking that it will definitely not result in pregnancy, every time I have sex I know pregnancy is possibility (however slight it may be), I assume a man in his mid 40’s has enough life experience and sense to think the same. He never asked me if I was on birth control, so I had no need to share that I wasn’t.

Yes, and the first part about how you thought about it, and you would tell him, and regardless of his response you feel you could manage...OK, well at least you've thought about it. Not judging you on that bit.
Not talking about it, that is actually pretty common, though I don't believe it should be. I think it's a conversation more people ought to be having.
But the part that is weird to me and others, I think, is that having a child is a rather big deal. It's life altering, in some major ways. The level of anxiety over an offhand comment or phrase seems huge from what you say here, and the level of anxiety about devoting the next couple decades of your life to raising a child is nonexistent, and for most of us, the latter is a far bigger deal than the former.
It's like watching someone have a meltdown over a Starbucks barista mispronouncing their name, and then seeing them act with complete chill five minutes later when someone totals their car pulling out of the parking lot.

This is not the issue at hand.
It's the fact that you see nothing wrong with potentially bearing his child via accident, yet you're freaking out and not communicating with him over an off handed comment. Your alarm bells are going off over the wrong things. THAT is what's not sense to people. Your priorities are screwed up.

This is exactly it. She says she is financially all set and can raise a child on her own, as if throwing money at a child is all it takes to raise one. "Whatever happens, happens" is about as disastrous a plan for having and raising kids and exercising one's reproductive rights and responsibilities as one can get.
Bebe what will you do when your child says far more strange and inscrutable things than "you have nice eyebrows" or "you are more beautiful than Billy's mommy, more beautiful than think you are"?
