[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boyfriend of 2 years began talking about children making emphasis that he wanted them to be his. I then asked what would happen if I can't have kids. He said he would discontinue the relationship. While I recognize his right to pursue bio children, [b]I feel uncomfortable with someone that would say something like this to me and I'm leaning towards moving on.

Has anybody had a similar experience?[/quote]

That's fine, then leave him. People are allowed to have their preferences, and you can either accept them or not. It doesn't make either of you right or wrong. I know people will say he's a jerk and you're right but those are people who either aren't being truthful with themselves about how they'd feel or who don't want kids. I didn't care if I had kids or not (woman) and my husband and I discussed this prior to marriage. We both decided we would try and see what happened (and ended up spontaneously pregnant with twins and we're very happy).

I understand it hurts your feelings that he wouldn't want to be married to you even if you couldn't produce children, and I get that that would sting, but he's telling you this now and you can either decide if you feel the same way or not. [/quote]
