    Strange Tube Journey!

    Today a man on the tube offered me his seat...that hasn't happened since I broke my ankle and was on crutches! All I could think was "please, oh please, don't let him think I'm pregnant!" I just don't know though...unless there is a sudden rash of chivalry on the London Underground (which I seriously doubt!) the only times strangers give up their seats are for people who are disabled, pregnant or elderly. I fit into none of those categories. The only one I could possibly even look like I fit is being pregnant. I didn't think I looked particularly big today...I thought I was looking pretty good! I'm supposed to be losing weight! Now I can't get it out of my head that he probably thought I was pregnant and have been trying to convince myself that he was either just an unusually nice man or he was so overwhelmed by my new changing body that he felt I deserved a seat! At least I am able to laugh about it but Please, oh please don't let that man have thought I looked pregnant!!

        I think so too - he was hitting on you!

        No one ever gives up a seat on the tube - even when I had a crutches and a sprained ankle - I still had to stand.

        Good for you!

            People on the tube are rarely that nice! But it is a nice thought, I hope it was that! It's funny though that it was certainly not the first thing that went through my head because people aren't really nice to each other on the tube...especially crowded carriages at rush hour! There is usually more pushing and shoving than gentlemanly behaviour!

              I also think he was being a gentleman. My hubby still gives up his seat on the tube for a lady x
