Search Results: meet a guy

So, recently talking to my bestie, she and I realized how both our boyfriends tend to lack empathy.

My boyfriend is so stubborn that he isn't wiling to yield on certain things, or, even consider that he could be in the wrong. It has resulted in fights between us, ending with him being confused. I ask him questions like "if you were in my shoes, and I said that to you, how would that make you feel?"... and he then will come to realization, and apologize, or at least meet me halfway.

Do you think its possible to make someone more empathetic?

For me, I wanted kids so bad especially last year, but now I'm just like if it happens it happens, but if it doesn't it doesn't.

I'm 33, if I do meet the right guy this year, it will take about a year or 2 before we even think about marriage and kids and by then I would be 34-35. It would be extremely risky. Not that I don't want to have kids anymore but that it seems to be becoming more highly unlikely that I do unless the guy I'm with really wants kids with me despite my age and risk factor.
