He doesn't want a family?!

Last night my partner and I were at a dinner party with friends. Long story short a friend decided to show us this 'ring trick' that supposedly shows how many children you have / are going to have and if its a boy or a girl.

It was all light hearted fun as it 'guessed' accurately of what a couple of people had and any who.... I took a turn, because you know, all for a bit of fun and it said I'd have one boy (which I have now) and a girl.

I didn't think anything of this, as I said above it was all just a bit of fun but my partner lost it completely. I can't even explain to you the dagger eyes he shot me from across the table and he even announced that having a child would be a 'deal breaker'.

To be honest I'm really hurt by his extreme reaction. Having another child isn't exactly at the forefront of my mind as I'm happy with how our family is at the moment, but the way he spoke about it all was really quite devastating.

AIBU to be upset by this? Should I just accept that a child should be a 'deal breaker'?
