my dearest friend is 37; been in a relationship for 6 years but has never felt that he's really the man for her or the man with whom she wants to have kids. to be blunt and simplistic she feels like she is facing a choice - have children with this man or bin him in the hope that someone better will come along before her fertility runs out. an incredibly crude way of putting it but ultimately what it boils down to. My instinct is that she should bin him now and move on. otherwise she will bimble long and possibly miss out - but I am so not in a position to advise her - I was married at 25. I know that ultimately only she can make these decisions but I desperately want to help her be happy. Is there anything I can/should say? what would you do - if you were her or if you were me?
