Got called pregnant

Just wanted to share this story with you because I'm baffled rn!

I was sitting on the beach and had the most awkward conversation of my life. This man that I saw maybe twice in my life (he is my neighbour's friend) walked up to me and basically this is how the conversation went:

Him: So, you doing alright? (at first I thought it was a genuine question because I had knee surgery a few days ago)

Me: Yeah, it's all good.

Him: You're not feeling nauseous?

Me: Why would I feel nauseous?

Him: Well, because you're pregnant!

Me: What? I'm not pregnant!

Him: I thought you were. You look pregnant.

Wtf?! I told him that's quite a rude thing to say and he shouldn't go around telling women they looked pregnant if he wasn't sure they were, because he basically just told me I look fat 😭

He then just walked away saying how he hasn't seen me in a long time (idk what that has to do with anything tho). He didn't say anything like I'm sorry or maybe that he thought I was someone else, he just called his friends and left!

I have no idea what made him say that because I certainly don't look pregnant, so I don't know where he got that idea from. But I don't think I'll be able to forget what he said to me for awhile.

On the other side I'm glad I had the courage to tell him what I think because usually I would just let these things slide, but I felt like I need to tell him that's a rude thing to say!
