If you want children, but you realize your partner is sterile, would you leave him/her?

[pleasestopthis]

If you don't have the means to pay for assisted fertility services.
Would you adopt, or accept the situation, or would you look for someone else to have kids?

I'm glad no one answered yes lol.
I agree with everyone here, a worthy partner to spend my life with is more important than having a bio child.

That's one of the things that make men hesitate to get seriously involved with a woman. Women want men as a wallet to pay for their spawn and assist in childcare. Its all about their "calfing". No man wants to be used. Yeah, we want children but with a partner who is committed to the relationship and see's us as a life PARTNER, not just a sperm doner and "provider".

It may go the other way around too, you know. Some women are shitty but not all are the same.

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

No, we'd look into adoption if she was sterile.

hmmm if u really love him idt u would leave him.. but at the same time.. u have to in order to make u happy

[beebella]

I'd probably just adopt or become a foster parent instead.

I found out I was sterile in 2006. From then I've told every woman that I'm unable. A few realized later on that they did want kids and I'm not for adoption.

[pleasestopthis]

Is there some reason behind that, or you just don't want kids?

[CuriousMufuxka]

I suppose you're referring to adoption?

[pleasestopthis]

Yes sorry I was not explicit

[CuriousMufuxka]

It's ok. I wanted to have a son. Teach him to be a man. Anyway adoption can be quite expensive with forms and paperwork. The kid wouldn't be mine.

[pleasestopthis]

Aah yes I understand

[madgoat]

I don't think this is something you can just accept. If you cannot use assisted services, I guess you'd adopt or find a surrogate father. The agreement would need to be from both of you. You don't need to split up.

[CaptainSmartass]

Nope. I'd see if she was willing to look into adoption.

Simples...

[Liam_Hayden]

I'm sterile so I wouldn't care but she might.

[pleasestopthis]

Would you consider adoption, or would you prefer to live as a childless couple?

[Secret6620]

No I wouldn't. 😊✌️💜

[ColHathi]

Definitely wouldn't leave them.

[Lunatic1]

Adopt, or try to save up for fertility treatments.

[JesseJayNeak]

[Kilapan]

[mynkMumbai]
