Hi all, would really appreciate some advice/opinions re value/moral differences in a relationship. I've had a big falling out with long term DP over his anti choice stance and I'm not totally sure the sensitivity around this sort of difference of opinion is compatible with continuing the relationship (which is otherwise very good). I obviously don't want to break up when most things are good, but the divide has genuinely been bothering me for a number of months and affects the way I see him, how looked after/cared for I feel as a woman etc. Has anyone ever discussed any value/moral differences through relationship counselling?
It is very important to note that this is mainly a hypothetical/political argument at this point as have never been personally affected by the issue at all (although I may have friends who have), but it has partially arisen now due to large amount of media coverage/campaigns etc. which has resulted from recent changes in Ireland. There will likely be further changes and a referendum in the future. On a personal level I in no way anticipate an accidental/unexpected pregnancy, however I do worry about whether I would feel fully supported in the event of a future pregnancy having one of the severe abnormalities which it is possible to screen for - as have read a bit on other mumsnet topics about this. Thanks for reading.
