”I Got Pregnant After A One-Night Stand With A Guy I Met In The Bus”-Lady Narrates

By Frank Kamuntu

This Ugandan lady Ms Nita met a man on the bus while travelling to Kampala who must have charmed her with his tender care, or probably the freebies he bought for her on transit.

They were already couples before they got to their destination, only wait­ing for the bus to stop for them to head for their honeymoon. That same day, she followed the man to his house and made love to him passionately.

Nita was probably not expecting to be pregnant after sleeping with a man she barely knew without protection. A few weeks later, she found out she was pregnant and worst still, she couldn’t remember anything about the man, not even his name.

“I was on the bus travelling to Kampala for an interview. I just finished school and in a hurry to get a job. My little savings were almost finished, and I needed to land myself a good job as soon as possible but I yielded this pregnancy,” Nita explains in a TikTok video.

One-night stands can be exciting and liberating, but they also come with potential risks. Here are some to consider:

1. Emotional Impact:
   • Attachment: Sometimes, one person may develop feelings after a casual encounter, leading to emotional attachment. If the other person doesn’t feel the same way, it can result in disappointment or heartache.
   • Regret: Post-hookup regret is common, especially if it was impulsive or alcohol-fueled. Some people may feel guilty or wish they hadn’t engaged in the encounter.
2. Physical Health Risks:
   • Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs): Unprotected sex during a one-night stand increases the risk of contracting STIs such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, or HIV.
   • Pregnancy: If contraception isn’t used, there’s a chance of unintended pregnancy.
3. Safety Concerns:
   • Unknown Partners: You may not know your partner well, which can be risky. Always prioritize safety and consent.
   • Location: Meeting someone in an unfamiliar place can be risky. Ensure you’re in a safe environment.
4. Social Stigma:
   • Judgment: Society sometimes stigmatizes casual sex. People may judge or label you based on your choices.
5. Communication Issues:
   • Expectations: Misaligned expectations can lead to misunderstandings. Be clear about your intentions.
   • Consent: Consent is crucial. Lack of communication can lead to uncomfortable situations.
