Guys: When you had unprotected sex, did it ever cross your mind to worry that she may become pregnant, or did you worry about it later?

Same question to you gals. If you had unprotected sex and were not on any kind of birth control, how quickly did the fear of pregnancy rise up? Right after?

I had unprotected sex during HS once (15 years old.) I didn’t want to, but we got excited and it was so God awful, desperately important to him. He was begging, almost crying so I gave in. :( I had a decent understanding of the female ovulation cycle so I was reasonably sure I was safe….but the next few days, waiting for my period, was an agony. I’m pretty sure he never gave it a second thought.

The first time I had sex with Jerry (after my divorce, I was 31) I planned it. I got on birth control the month before (he didn’t know.) When the time came, he was happy. I remember wondering if he would ask about protection. It never crossed his mind.
Later I asked “Why not?”
He said, “I figured you had that covered.”

These are my experiences from the 70s through the 90s. Is it any different today?
