It is so silly when strangers on the internet think they know people better than they know each other..........why are you so bitter you want to pick us apart?

He doesn't want a baby in 3 to 5 yrs because of his age ..... it's nothing to do with money...he has plenty.

Doesn’t want to give you half when you leave, like the last guy. He’s not that old, just thinking ahead. Like an attorney.

The profits my EX AND I made on OUR house ...were split in half. That has nothing to do with my current Bf....or YOU.

Posting history, you aren’t aware of it, or wouldn’t have accused me of being some guy who used to be a principal.
This is too easy. Good luck to you.

So....you know him personally & know him better than I do...? How would you know how he feels about kids or me or money? This thread is not discussing him or why he made the decision he made.....it's for me to be Ok with it...& still move in together.

  • teaching to speak
  • helping with homework
  • general goofyness and watching them play
  • buying clothes
  • doing extra laundry
  • talking in kid speak in general
  • birthday and xmas gifts
  • thankless parenting
  • screaming babies/toddlers for 3 years
  • rough road trips, restless baby/toddler
  • teaching them right from wrong
  • sickness...diseases
  • possible mentally incapable (makes everything in the list 10x more difficult)
  • Teenage years/parties/drugs/bad friends
  • college loans

If youre ok with all of these, then maybe you really do want kids. Some people find these things rewarding.

These are the things I think of that discourage me, and keeps me in the frame of mind that I dont like being around children.
All worth it...EVERY SINGLE BIT OF IT.

I don’t care how they feel about kids, but I wouldn’t date someone who was anti-cats. Total dealbreaker.

It is good for you that you have no regrets, tho it can be a big risk....
Picking a partner with whom you do not share this important desire is a HUGE risk.

But why don't you want to do it? You've made a big deal out of making sure everyone knows you are "doing all this on your own." Taking care of your own housing affairs would be in that category. It seems to go against what you say you're "about."


And how could HE get the fee reduced? Does he have some connection to the owner of this apartment complex?

It sounds like he's already sure. Do you think you'll change his mind?
