Yeah, its true....
I can't share it with my Grandma who keeps asking me. It wouldn't help either way because she would just stare at me like I have suddenly grown three heads or like I am an alien.
Mom and Dad don't know either. They wouldn't understand. I don't want to tell them either.
And my brothers would just roll their eyes at me...
So, I am hiding in my room staring at my computer screen.
I am only sharing this secret with you.........
Hoping against hope that you will understand
that...
I am expecting.....

This sounds vaguely familiar
I hope you took the necessary protection so that you are ready for whatever might happen next

@Daljinder How could you forget about it?
It is the first thing you shoud think of when you start a post like this one.
Protection comes in the form of timing, so that you can protect yourself from having pages and pages of notifications if you post just before you go out or to bed or to dinner or watever else.
Protection against those Lotters who don't read anything beyond the title and then start gossiping too

I thought her title was straight out of your myLot guide to posting. Hook 'em up and reel 'em in.

The post was suggested by dear friend Vandana. My initial thought was someone is expecting a baby and Vandana has drawn my attention to the post because we recently commented on two similar posts. However, the moment I opened it and saw it has been started by you, I immediately realized that you are playing a prank. .
No doubt that by creating such a title to your post you succeeded in drawing attention of other users.
Many of us are in the same situation as you are i.e. our respective family members either do not know about myLot or do not understand about it and why we are here. As you are teaching computer programs to your students, therefore your parents or grandma may not get an inkling that what you are up to on PC.

@dpk262006 Aww shucks...!! That is the downside of when people start to get to know me better. My pranks fall flat. But they do inspire me to be more creative..... So, you have been warned buddy.
lol. You inferred it right about what I was talking about. They really don't get it. Mylot is a foreign concept to them. And my brothers aren't interested in it. In fact, my elder brother asks me to write his work e-mails after dinner most of the time. So, participating in discussions where you are typing out all your thoughts would put him off.

@jabo Well my trick fell flat with you..... Don't worry I will get you one day. Lol!!
My students have their exams and tests so they are taking most of my time and then other things too came up. So, I wasn't able to check in here. I now know I worried many people and they left me messages fearing I have left the site...lol..
So, I decided to make my presence known today...

That is a good discussion, as I thought you were expecting a baby too, until I saw the words responses and comments. That is cute the way you did though. I think you had us on the edge of our seats I know I was, and yu are getting responses, so here you go.

You'll be okay! It's always scary to tell and I felt that way with each of my babies. Of course I'm married so that does help. I was even scared to tell my husband the last time I was pregnant. I pretty much threw my pregnancy test at him and said its my fault becaus clearly it was this time my fault. You will get through this it's not the end of the world and they will come around.

@Daljinder I read everything. On your post. What am I suppose to see that isn't their? If your talking about tags I don't read tags and tags are not part of a post they are part of searches which I'm not doing any searches right now so they are irrelevant to this post for me. So what is it that you wanted to me to read that is not clear to anyone that is reading? You want to make a point about sow thing out it in your post duh!!!!

Does your husband knows it ?
Hold you are in your house ?
What I should expect now ? A fake news ? Or if it is true - have a talk with your boyfriend and then with your family before taking any decision.
Hope everything goes fine
