unconsidered

Done without thought

Unconsidered describes something not given proper thought or attention.

An unconsidered decision is made hastily, without weighing consequences.

Unconsidered remarks slip out carelessly: His unconsidered comments offended half the room.

The word can also mean overlooked or disregarded—the unconsidered details that later prove important.
