Yes. For one thing the relationship's never gonna be perfect, and I don't have the luxury of a long line of people just waiting to date me. Why pass on that if it's not a dealbreaker?

At this point I'll date anyone I'm compatible with (and attracted to). I save tomorrow for tomorrow.

But in long-term, would you date someone who may not want kids if that’s something you prefer but might not mind it? Like would you be okay/happy as long as you found that compatible person?

I'm flexible on it TBH, but I guess if someone really wanted kids they should find someone with the same goals. I mean it doesn't matter if you're 19 or something, as you aren't likely to be with that person very long anyway, but if you're looking for a mature relationship it certainly matters.

What do you mean you’re flexible about it? Well yeah this is more in regards of a long lasting relationship lol.

I don't really have any plans to have kids, but if I met someone I was really into and they wanted kids, I would consent. I really don't think of myself as having kids without considering the matter of the woman I would be having them with.

For a while I wasn’t sure just cuz I was afraid I won’t have enough time due to work and kids deserve everything. I would wanna be the best mom. Recently I realized I do! Lol. But I don't know this situation is abit complicated 😅

No. If someone wants kids, they're always going to want kids and they will not be happy. As a man, when a woman makes it clear to me that she wants kids in the immediate future, I end things so she can have a chance at finding someone who can give her that. I eventually want kids, but further down the road than they are willing to wait. Also, if a woman wanted no kids, I would leave her so that I could find someone who has the same goals as me. It is a major life choice that you and your partner should be in complete agreement on, in my opinion.

Wow those are a lot of words you packed in there.

Dating sure, but long term definitely no.

I definitely want kids in the future so if she doesn't well there's no point in keeping her around.

I have a vasectomy and am very up front w serious babes about it (not ransoms and one night stands). If she truly wants kids i won't date her.

if we're compatible otherwise in the relationship. then her not wanting future children wouldn't be a deal breaker. because I am on the fence about having future children myself.
