Of the two of you are/were you or your partner more eager to have children?

[Anonymous]

Me

My partner

Neither one of us want/wanted children

I don't have a partner

[HouseMoat]

The girl i like, I told her I don't want marriage or kids, and she said the same. However, she's been married before, which makes me wonder why she wouldn't want it again (I get it, divorce happens, but, that doesn't mean you can't find love and marriage again, right?). She also claims she doesn't want kids, but, one time when I was around her and her friend, her friend said "you're really good with you cousins, you'd be a good mother". I'm not sure how she responded because that's all my friend had said. Again, I question her saying this to me (that she doesn't want either, like me), just because she's good with kids, and has been married before

[strateguy632]

i was more eager to have a kid than her. one kid.

I didn’t want children, my partner wasn’t worried either way. Then I became pregnant. We both fell in love with the thought of having a child after that. So now both of us want kids.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

My then-partner wanted marriage and children and I loved him, and grew fond of that idea as well.

[HouseMoat]

So what happened?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

@HouseMoat I no longer wish to discuss it. Who are you and why should I tell you the story?

[HouseMoat]

Why not?

[Apple1996]

Definitely my husband. He loves babies

[aceleon]

i don't have one but if i was married itwould probably me who were more eager for a kid, although i would appreaciate it more if SHE was the one who wanted them more since i'm all for girls who are extremely motherly and kid/pet freaks.

[DaBiggestBird]

Unless it’s a cats, a prairie dog, or even some kind of bird since I am Da Biggest Bird, then no thank you, she would have to be more eager than me. Not happening either way unless it’s any of the beings I mentioned first

[JustinTheGreat]

we have one kid already and we both keep going back and forth on having another one.
I think he wants another more than I do tho

[HouseMoat]

he? Are you gay/bi, or was it a typo. Nothing wrong with all three, just curious

[JustinTheGreat]

@HouseMoat gay

[HouseMoat]

So why are you on a site called GIRLS ask guys?

[JustinTheGreat]

@HouseMoat why not? lol. It’s just a title, you’re allowed to ask and post about topics other than dating advice from the opposite sex

[HouseMoat]

Because it's girls ASK GUYS, not guys ask guys about guys

[JustinTheGreat]

@HouseMoat then how come in your recent question you said “boys and girls..” 🤨🤨

[HouseMoat]

Because I'm asking everyone.

[JustinTheGreat]

@HouseMoat …so you agree? You can ask questions directed towards everyone. You don’t HAVE to just ask questions towards women if you’re a man or vice versa?
Lol

[HouseMoat]

No, this is girls ASK GUYS, not GUYS ASK GUYS ABOUT GUYS

I never said guys couldn't ask BOTH girls AND guys

[Nikki1989]

Neither. We are too busy with our careers for children.

[EmmaMary]

Both my husband and I were equally eager to start our family.

[IslaTheWitch]

I wanted hem all. But never went against the wishes of my partner.

[HouseMoat]

Isn't it wrong to keep people from their happiness?

[IslaTheWitch]

@HouseMoat what do you mean?

[HouseMoat]

If you want kids, why stay with someone who doesn't

[IslaTheWitch]

@HouseMoat my partner wanted children but not immediately. I didn't see a point in forcing him to have them now or change a partner.

[HouseMoat]

Why be with someone that doesn't want kids?

[exitseven]

We were only married for a few weeks before we turned up pregnant. Definitely before I wanted

[HouseMoat]

Did you use protection?

[exitseven]

@HouseMoat No, it is actually a miracle we did not turn up pregnant before we got married.

[HouseMoat]

Immaculate conception?

[exitseven]

@HouseMoat there was nothing immaculate about it

[HouseMoat]

righhhhttt and im jesus christ your lord and savior

[KittygosMeoWW]

With my long term ex he would constantly talk about the type of dad he’d be and I ended up stepping up to parent

[HouseMoat]

What happened, for you to break up?

[KittygosMeoWW]

@HouseMoat he was unable to provide stability and the commitment it takes to become a loving partner and true father was too much he kind of just left when everything got real

[HouseMoat]

Ah yeah, makes sense

[rachel776b]

neither yet 🤷‍♀️

[Thestupidusername]

"I don't have a partner"

[elizamichale1]

Neither of us were into it

[HouseMoat]

So if you have them, will you regret it

[elizamichale1]

@HouseMoat i hav twin boys aged almost 6 now honey

[HouseMoat]

Do you regret them

[elizamichale1]

@HouseMoat no not really

[HouseMoat]

Why not

[elizamichale1]

@HouseMoat lol we decided to continue then why would we regret

[HouseMoat]

Because lots of parents, regret having kids. I saw a woman, LITERALLY drop off her kids at her moms, and never came back because her new boyfriend, didn't want them, and neither did she

[elizamichale1]

@HouseMoat well yea u r right about tht i guess... but well we decided to continue

[HouseMoat]

See!

[elizamichale1]

@HouseMoat 😊😊

[LiamJHayden]

Any time it has occurred it was the girl.
