As disappointing it would be to not be able to have birth children, there’s always adoption. Besides, having kids isn’t exactly the only reason I want to find someone to marry. I want a partner in life to have fun and romance with as we support earth other, children or no children.
Well, barring her ovaries being removed, I'm pretty confident I can get her pregnant. I have been a sperm donor more than once, and a woman that was 45 got pregnant from my sperm. I do want kids of my own at some point. So as long as she is ok with working on getting pregnant, or if she is unable to get pregnant if she is ok with me getting someone else pregnant even if it is a surrogate, than I don't mind being with her. So long as we are attracted to each other and she has a good personality.
I didn't and don't want children, got married when we were both in our late-30s, thought I was protected against such an evil eventuality, but whadya know, out pops a little human being a few years later.
Shame on me for ever allowing myself to become involved in the first place.
Maybe reincarnation is a thing, and I'll get another chance.
If she removed her ovaries, yeah probably. I want kids, so that is obviously not going to work. If I dated her and we both wanted kids but it turned out we couldn't, well I doubt I'm capable of abandoning anyone, its one thing to cut a woman out of your life because she cheated on you or wasn't right for you, its quite another to do so to a woman who not only did nothing wrong but is herself a victim of circumstances.
Well, not every person wants kids, and even people who want kids it wouldn't be a deal breaker for everyone of them if they never had them. This is also not "infertile" so there's a chance and that's an even higher number of guys who would be happy. I'm sure if there were two girls who were the exact same in every way except that one had a lower chance of having a kid, that girl would be chosen less. But that's just a hypothetical that wouldn't be a real situation
Ha.. Finding any guy who wants to get any woman pregnant is almost impossible. The rare guys that are into breeding are looking for much younger more fertile with the best chance of no birth defects. Also any guys reading this never fall for the ol "I can't get pregnant" line. Might be true but its often a trick to get pregnant.
It is not a conscious decision. Men instinctly pursue more fertile women. It isn't like they decide it. For instance, I don't like kids and I certainly don't want one but it doesn't change I have give them higher priority.
Similar thing is true for women. They look for someone who has money, status and power. Even if they put it as their criteria cause come from their instincts.
It is not logical to be offended about that. However, don't expect to have a dating pool that is as large as when you are in twenties. That doesn't mean no one will prefer you but means less people will prefer you and they may not willing to pursue you as much as when you're young.
Sure I would. I'm 41 and I have one child. I don't know for sure if I want more kids, but I'm leaning towards not having any more. So, a woman who can't have kids would actually be a good match for me.
When I was younger the belief was consistently pushed on me that I had to be married at a certain age and have children at a certain age in order to live a happy and fulfilling life that has meaning.
Now I'm 35 and I am of the opinion that if I find a woman who completes me, that would be enough for me.
Just to have that other vessel in which to pour my bottled up affection into and to share cool stuff with.
I´m actually looking for a woman who can´t concieve so that wouldn´t be much of a problem to me. A bigger problem would be the age difference because I wouldn´t want a woman that is more than 3/4 years older than me.
Actually, I prefer a woman who has started menopause. A lot the data shows that plenty of women reach peak sexually in their late 30's and 40's. In large part this is due to lowered / removed risk of pregnancy. If I want kids, I'll adopt. As far as I'm concerned "childless" 30 something women are just absolutely fantastic. The Ideal.
My OH was 40 when we met, we've had 2 kids in 3 years.
I admit, kids were a dealbreaker for me. I went on a date with someone who on first date mentioned they didn't want more kids, that was the end of it for me.
30's isn't that old, you cam still have kids and have lots of fun trying.
I've had enough though, i love my two kids but no more. If i were single and dating i'd be clear with anyone that i wouldn't want more.
I do not know what that woman was thinking but sounds like nonsense.
If I am dating a woman, I'm dating her for her, not for some future of kids. (Also I don't want kids but even if I did, she is more important than the idea of kids)
Now since I'm 20, I wouldn't date a 30 year old woman cause the age gap is uncomfortable. But if I were 30, I'd date her if she's a good person.
No, it wouldn't be an issue at all.
I never had a desire to have kids, so for me it wouldn't of been a problem.
For her she might really want to have kids, so finding someone who loves you no matter what and will be willing to do everything possible to have a family would be the best choice.
"This "amazing" "woman" here on G@G, I won't mention her name, pointed out that MEN ONLY WANT FERTILE WOMEN, and that's what they will chase after. "
I will bet a slap that her username starts with letters "Qu_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _“ .
Am I right?
As far it is about this...
Yes! I am looking for a women who cannot go pregnant..
She just need to be open to option of surrogate or adoption!
And it's a 100% sealed deal..
Yeah i mean its one thing if she's say 22 and you get married and damn unlucky she can't get pregnant. Thats tough luck. But a man is a fucking idiot to marry some 35 year old going in he knows he might not get kids. Who would do that? Or If i met a 22 year old who knew she couldnt have kids id not continue a serious relationship with her. Marriage is about having kids and making a family. Otherwise why not just be a bachelor for life?
Some prefer a childless relationship. Ik some guys who do prefer having children but are flexible/wouldn't be a deal breaker if she's not fertile. 30yros isn't a too difficult age to have children. Just 40-50s, depends on each woman.
You could always adopt or get a surrogate. If you truly love her/like her then it should not matter if she is infertile because there's many ways to be a parent.
The best way I can answer this is, my g/f can't have kids and we've been together for a very long time.
Oh please. I was 46 and my wife was 45 when our son was born. Fertility is maybe not as easy at that age, but it's not impossible
Its a known fact how Important the age is in conceiving. SO you have to decide How important it is for you to have a child and do not base your decision on a rare possibility such as getting pregnant in 45 .
