My husband doesn't want kids

Anonymous
Divorce. You deserve to have kids and be happy with a partner who has the same life goals that you do. He deserves happiness too, not being with a partner that resents him or forced him into having children.

Not so sure he “changed his mind.”


Who gives a shit? She’s 31 and can still have kids elsewhere!!! Run OP!!


I am not saying she should or shouldn’t. What I am saying is that it’s not necessarily fair to blame the guy. It sounds like OP went into the marriage with a lot of wishful thinking.


Who cares about blame. She is on the tail end of fertility and he is playing games and wasting her time.

First, I’d ask him why had he lied to me over and over? Then I’d divorce him.

Divorce. Under a year and no kids will be cheap & easy.

The fact that he lied to trap you is a huge red flag.

Divorce. This is a big thing to lie about on his part. It’s only been 8 months, it and run. Do not have kids with this guy thinking he’ll change his mind when he sees how cute they are or sees himself in them.

You have a clean break. End it and find someone new. This isn’t the man for you and you’re SO young.

Leave.

Move out this weekend. Get a divorce. Only 6 months without kids.

I had the opposite problem. We agreed no kids and then he "changed his mind" and pushed a pregnancy I did not want. I don't believe in abortion. I was 34. I am now late 40s and divorced. It ruined my life. We did not have the same life goals. Get out now.

This is complete nonsense.

Divorce. Don’t forget that not only is he your partner but he is the parent. Which means you’re subjecting your future kids to a life with a shitty, uncaring parent. You have time.

Agreed. It's best for both parties to separate.

Those of us saying 'divorce' have either been there or watched our friends be there. Parenting w/ someone who isn't ALL IN is going to be a nightmare.

This is the beginning of the end of your marriage. He won’t change.

Leave asap. File divorce papers. If you can afford freeze eggs while you are looking for another partner.
