Of course she had a say in it. God sent an angel to tell her what He wanted to do, but nothing happened until Mary freely said "let it be done unto me according to your word". That's how God works. He presents His plan to us one way or another, and we either accept it or reject it.

Not at all! Most every hebrew maiden wished she could be the mother of the Messiah. That was a common wish. When Mary was chosen she sang a song of praise and thanksgiving to God that she was the chosen one. It would prove difficult socially, (not being married and all) But she was overjoyed at the prospect. See her song in luke 1:41-55. Hope this helps.

I'm sure she felt odd. Think about it: an archangel appears to you, and announces that a spirit is going to impregnate you with Yahweh himself.
It would make most women feel odd, for sure.

Read Luke Chapter 2 - See what you think.

I don't think that she even thought about it being unfair, or that she didn't have a choice, I think she felt honored to be carrying the Christ child.

She said that she was pregnant by God, so Joseph wouldn't find out that she was cheating on him.

No. I'll ask you to go to your own Bible and read what she had to say about it.
