I've known my boyfriend for about 5 years and we've been in a committed relationship for 2.
I love him more than anything and I know he's the one for me. I know how cliche it sounds but this is the first time I've actually felt this to be true love in my life.
Every aspect of our relationship flows smoothly except for well, kids.
I know for a fact I want atleast 1 child. I've always wanted kids.
My boyfriend... not so much.
I really want to blame it on his age (he's 26) and where he's at in life at the moment (bartender making good money, in a band, likes traveling but can't decide on a career to pursue) and maybe I'm right.
I also know it's unfair to expect someone to change their mind just to satisfy your wants.
The idea of things not working out between us in the future because of this scares me...
What if he really never wants kids... what'll happen to me?
What'll happen to our marriage???
At the same time, I'm only 22 and I feel I shouldn't be worrying about something that doesn't affect me as of right now. But I know this will affect my future..
I'm in an ongoing battle with my mind and I can't talk to him about this cause he never says anything.
I need some insight. I need support.
I'm so nervous about our future.
