Relationships include: Partner, expartner, spouse and exspouse. You should have one that includes: Affair-and-one night stand. In order to relate to surprise pregnancies.

  I think a relationship "one night stand" would not be helpful. For one thing, how are genealogists supposed to verify that it was "one night" (and not two, three, or four).

  Sorely needed on Geni is the ability to indicate that two people have "no relationship" even though they are each a parent of someone else. I have heard that Geni may introduce the relationship designator "other" to indicate two people who are not spouses, ex-spouses, partners, or ex-partners. But labelling two people as having an "other" type of relationship is sometimes unsatisfactory (for example in cases of rape). Better would be an option to designate two people as having "no relationship".

  It would be nice to have additional desginations for these varied type of pregnancies.
