No marriage or kids?

[Anonymous]

Thoughts on the male partner (from females perspective) who doesn’t want to get married or have kids but you love each other.

I believe that this kind of issue happens quite frequently in a relation.

That question should be on the top of the list when getting into a relation and before this relation gets serious. It is only fair towards the partner to let him/her know that having children of your own or to adopt some and allow him/her to make up a decision whether to continue the relation in full knowledge of that fact or to opt out.

Marriage is another topic that needs to be put on the negotiation table before getting serious in a relationship. Although, marriage is an antique religious custom that is slowly losing ground, some people place a great importance on it.

In both cases, one has to be honest enough with the partner to let him/her know how you feel about those issues and sever the relation if you cannot find a compromise that is acceptable to both.

Those are about second date questions for me. There would not have been a third date.

Woukd have found that out by third date. Would not fit into my design, therefore, a feeling that is self- generated is secondary to a thought out Plan. Life runs most clearly when Plans are adhered too and executed

I will stick with her

I wouldn’t dump her for that

Depends on whether she wants the same thing.

If it works, it works. If not, it doesn't.
