Search Results: did he want to settle down with me

He dumped me out of the blue about a month ago. Obviously I was hurt and confused. During the breakup, he kept saying how he really really wants to be friends. We haven't had any contact since that night, except when I dropped off his stuff I left a letter explaining my confusion in his sciency terms "when something at work doesn't work you wouldn't throw it away, you'd inquire, analyze, collaborate" etc. The end of the letter was a P. S. saying I'm not ready to be friends, but I'd be open to chat when we're both ready for some open and honest communication.

He received that 2 weeks ago... I'm wondering if he interpreted the letter as I'll be in touch with him? I'm out of town for another week, but I really do want to sit down and chat with him when I'm back. Should I text him when I'm back? If so, what should I say?

His reason for dumping me was "I just never developed the feelings I thought I would" which I think is total bullshit. He's been saying I love you for months and months. The timing of the breakup was when he was super stressed with family and work, and I want to see if... now that things have settled down he would reconsider being together.

Something I've seen become more popular is single women who have yet to find 'Mr. Right', but want to have kids, have the financial means to do so and don't want to wait, will get pregnant via a sperm donor and become a single mom on their own. Usually, this is done by older women (35+) concerned about their continued fertility, but I've seen more and more articles about younger women, in their twenties, doing this. From what I can tell, it's not that they don't want a partner, they simply just don't want to wait until they find the perfect person to settle down with. It got me thinking, what are guys' opinions on this? Would you date someone who has become a single mother by choice? Would you see it as 'Whoo! No baby daddy to make things complicated!' or 'She's totally crazy!'?
