[quote=Anonymous]Do you want kids? Do you want them now? Don't ever marry someone who does not share your basic goals around family and marriage, hoping they'll "come around". That is always a bad idea. But nothing wrong with marrying someone who isn't ready for kids at 26 if you are also not ready for kids at 26 and you guys largely agree on your long term plans and love each other and collaborate well and no how to resolve differences. If you are 26 and anxious to have kids, you should look for a man who feels similarly. If you are going to compromise, it should be with someone who is like "I really want kids but I want to finish grad school first -- how do you feel about starting to try when we are 28-29" and if that feels reasonable to you, that works. But do not marry someone who is like "Uh, I don't know, I don't want to think about kids right now, we'll figure it out" if what you really want is to have kids soon.[/quote]
