What would you do if your spouse turned out to be infertile shortly after marriage?

Stay with them and remain childless

Adopt

Leave them

Personally I have never wanted kids so it would not phase me.

If that changed there are plenty of ways to deal with it. I am not adverse to options like adoption but I also think that most infertility can be worked around.

I would probably be more concerned about their feelings than my own.

I'm not polishing my halo saying it, but... if the purpose of your marriage was to raise children together and you now cannot do that, through know fault of your partner, I can see that being sufficient reason to walk away. Far better to part amicably and early than to spend decades being passive aggressive because you feel your marriage has ruined your life and you never got a chance to express your loss and grief because society says you should 'stay with them and remain childless'.

I don't want children anyway, so I'd stay married to him. But I hope he'll be grateful to me and appreciate me, because an infertile man is only half a man, and no woman will accept half a man. But I wonder what a man will do in that situation; he'll probably divorce his wife right away because she's infertile.

Stay with them and be childless. I don't want kids anyway.

@Jessica405 I also don't want offspring - I hear that 👀🫡

I was pretty much not resigned to the idea of having kids. I do not think I would have minded if we did not have any. Actually I wondered if maybe I would not be able to reproduce.

Stay and remain childless - I have zero interest in populating the Earth 🌎 🌍 and I'm just not father material 👀🤭

Stay with them and go polygamy and get somebody else pregnant. Two pus sies for the price of one
