Hi I have been with my partner for 8 yrs, we have bought a house that we are currently fixing up. Over the last two weeks I've noticed a change in him, he's distance he's not happy go lucky. His work has been stressful. Last night we had a row I t I'll told him I felt we were distant with each other and if our relationship was going down the pan.
After 10min of talking he broke down and cried and said he wasn't sure if he wanted kids and he knew it would be a deal breaker. A few weeks ago I sat him down and we made the decision for me to come of the pill next yr but I told his family thinking it would set the deal. We eventually came to a decision that we would stay together but need to have a few conversations one at a time and not a on or off conversation. Now I've always wanted kids but I wasn't a 100 per cent sure myself but after hitting 30 I became engrossed in what are the next stages in my life and this is where it's steamed. I wear my heart on my sleeve everyday I can't keep my emotions hidden yet I don't wanna be a blubbering mess for two wks whilst he's away. Please give me advice.
