My dp and I live together. We've discussed marriage and kids and he was really freely discussing it and was keen for both to happen in next few years. I am 28 and he's 43. I have recently had the most incredible broodiness. I have been in tears some days because i want a baby so much so the other day I opened up to dp. He said there is no rush for a baby. He is 43! He'll be 60 by time our child is 16 if we had one now so i feel there is time passing us by!
What is really hurting me though is his ex had a son who he treated like his own from him being born. He no longer has contact though, and on hos profile on dating site we met on, he said that single parents are not a problem, so the way I see it is that he'll take on other peoples kids but not have one with me and I'm hurting!
