[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would ask how open he is to getting therapy for OCD. Do not have kids with him if he doesn’t seem open to treatment. Right now it’s just showers, but OCD gets worse, not better. Some day you may have a newborn who will spit up on you multiple times a day and you may not have the time or energy or desire to shower every day, much less multiple times a day. What if a sick toddler pukes on you in the middle of the night? Is he going to require a full shower before you can get back in bed? [/quote]

+1 And he likely will expect her to clean that vomit up, and change the sheets, while she's also supposed to get the sick kid back to sleep. His fixations now don't bode well for his turning into a hands-on parent when parenting gets literally messy. OP will possibly end up handling every unpleasant or dirty aspect of parenting, while he wants to handle the fun stuff but not the midnight messes.

Sure, we're projecting into a future neither we nor OP can know yet, but she needs to think ahead and do some projecting of her own.[/quote]
