She's focused on her career, and she doesn't want stretchmarks. :yeshrug:

I was hoping I could change her mind. She'd still be delicious after them stretchmarks. :shaq:




:mjlol:

Is adoption out of the question?

No stretch marks for her.

There's plenty of kids out there who need a supportive family.

Wanted to get the opinions of the Coli brehettes:

I've been having baby fever for the longest time; maybe about two years now. Can't explain why. I've always loved kids/are good with kids, and the thought of being a father is:wow::banderas:


Unfortunately, my girl doesn't see it the same way. She's career-focused and doesn't want kids. Originally she said that we had to get our finances up, and I agreed :ehh:. We've been good financially for a while and the question came up again.

She doesn't want any kids. Period. :to:


Not sure what to do. Any advice?
She led you on and deceived you into thinking she would have kids with you one day. Divorce her. Don't waste any more time with her.

How old are you two? If shes in her 30s thinking that way, your chances of her changing her mind is slim imo.

ETA:
Women in their 30s, Ive noticed, are baby crazy or absolutely dont want any. If y'all in your 20s, she may change her mind. I dont know if this is an allowable suggestion but perhaps couples therapy may be in order.

Western societies are running into this problem. The more educated, successful woman are the less we want to have kids. Although I want to be a mother some day, even I understand why a successful woman doesnt want children or only wants 1 kid. They dont benefit us in any way. They destroy our bodies, cash drain, ungrateful, can be the source of depression and may abandon you in your old age. That and you have to deal with the pressures of motherhood and the criticisms from other women and men about how youre raising, dressing, feeding your kid, etc.

If she doesnt want any, you should probably call it and file divorce papers. Maybe if you file it'll snap her out of it. Its possible she may resent you though if you present her with an ultimatum and has a kid for you to stay married.

Y'all are so quick to hit the divorce button. :russ:
I'm old-fashioned; marriage is for life, unless someone dies, beats, or cheats. :yeshrug: Leaving isn't on the table.

Do I want to be a father? Yes--but I'm not willing to leave a woman who provides for me in every other way. I know a good deal when I see one.:manny:

We did talk about kids before we got married (we've been together 10 years and married for 6, BTW), but the agreement at the time was to wait five years at least.

We're almost out of our 20's.

Pretty much. :upsetfavre: Nothing against adopting, though.

Lol well you wanted our opinions. And I don't usually tell people to get divorces/breakup but in your case if you really want kids like you made it seem like in the OP, then the relationship isn't going to last or you're going to start resenting her. But it seems like you're willing to overlook not having children because you love her so much, so keep what you have :ehh: Just don't throw it in her face when you get upset about something.
