Where were the 40 year old women who didn't want kids back when I was in my 40s?
His flip-flop on kids is unfounded and unfair. At 40 I can understand that you don't want children. My sister had her last child at age 41 and had a much more difficult time than with her first child at age 35.
There is no middle ground on this issue. The best thing to do is to say that a child doesn't fit into your future plans and leave it at that. If he flip-flops back to not wanting kids, do not automatically take it as a positive sign- if he flipped twice, he could do it again. If things between the two of you get serious you don't want that to happen.
You seem very nice. I hope things work out for you.

Dating applications are rarely straightforward and fully truthful. Man is not wired to be truthful. You are a rarity. This should be of little surprise but definitely disappointment…
He should have been honest from the beginning. Yes, it's difficult to let go of someone you like, but expecting you to accommodate his wishes is not fair to you.
