Faulty Ept test?

So today I had an itch to take a pregnancy test so I took one when I went to the restroom. I kind of don't understand why I wanted to take one. I'm on cycle day 25, I'm not supposed to start till the 11th. I guess maybe it was that I was sick this morning? Anyway, once I took it I sat it on my counter for the time said to let it sit and when I went back to look, it was faulty. I will not go into description because I will be posting a photo of it. To be completely truthful, I was disappointed. I know in my relationship we're not ready. We are ready financially, space wise, and mentally in our minds but our relationship isn't at the right time.
