He doesn’t want kids, but I do!
Having children is a blessing, and it’s the next step after marriage for many people. But what if your partner doesn’t want to add another life to your unit? What should a woman do when her man states that he is not interested in having children?
Ann-Marie:
What I would tell a friend who tells me her man doesn’t want kids is to run! A man like that is not the type to commit so why lower your standards just to have a man? Leave him and find a man who can give you exactly what you desire.
Kryssie:
I couldn’t take that relationship seriously. I would probably continue if the sex was worth it, but I would definitely be searching for the man who desires the same things. Life is short and I’ve got no time to waste or to try to convince a man to give me what I want. I’d rather walk out of that or stay a bit longer just for the loving.
CH:
I got engaged to my ex several years ago and it was for this very reason that I didn’t make it to the altar. He told me he was not interested in having children because of his childhood, and although I understood he had a rough childhood, I couldn’t hide my desire for children and so I told him I couldn’t be a wife to him. I loved the guy to the core but when I thought about giving up one of my life’s goals, I had to let him go. I’m now married and actually pregnant with twins and I couldn’t be happier. Ladies, do not settle!
BG:
I could live with a man like that. I am not interested in having children either because I was abused as a child and I don’t think I can bring myself to have a child and not be fearful it will happen to him or her, so I made that decision from my early teens not to marry and have children. I am good with a committed relationship but I’d rather do so without the paperwork or delivering a baby.
