That would be my reaction. Regardless of my actual intentions.

The fact he hasn't bodes pretty well I think.

I know in the US shelling our child support is a crippler, so I can imagine someone who has been there once us HYPER cautious of being there again.

I just think you need to chill a bit. Breathe. Remember also that things like kids to him don't just involve you and him, but the kids he already has.
He has ALOT to consider. And I really doubt he expected this conversation to arrive before your 2nd date.

Hope you manage to work things out. All the best.
Yeah, I get that, except that how you describe it is NOT how it happened. I didn't just bring up us having kids out of nowhere. Nor did I even bring up US having kids.

Please don't tell me to chill. You are not understanding the situation or what has happened.
