I'm 42 with kids, boyfriend is 34, what if he wants kids??

[Frothyfreddie]

Hi

I've just met the most amazing man online. We have chatted for 3 weeks before finally arranging a date on Thursday night. As he walked into the bar I was dumbstruck at his beauty, he is 6'4, dark hair, incredibly handsome and his accent nearly made me faint.

As we sat and chatted, I could tell he felt the same way, we couldn't keep our eyes off each other and as he leaned in for a fist kiss I almost melted, it was perfect.

We ended the night with talk of how much chemistry we have and how into each other we are.

He messaged the next day and said he would find it very easy to fall in love with me.

I would love nothing more. My only issue is that although our age gap is not huge i can't help but think that he will want kids and as I'm 42 and have 2 kids I feel like I'm done.

Is this a conversation I should be having early in in the relationship with him so as not to waste his time or do I just let us both fall in love with each and cross that bridge when it comes?

I really have fallen for him, I can tell he feels the same

Hope your update is worth the wait

@donald I bet you're right! Maybe she met 'beauties' dad or brother and rode off into the sunset with them instead!

Popcorn at the ready.

Engaged?

Married? Pregnant?

oh the update....

he has a dark past, he is ashamed of, he absolved his evil by training for the priesthood but couldn't commit to his religion as he KNEW the woman of his dreams, Ms Frothyfreddie was just waiting in the wings

he has tussled with turning is back on the life that saved him but he HAS to move on and be with his one true love

op, ignore everyone and enjoy.

i told my now dh. that the doctor told me that very day to ttc quickly if i wanted kids. so first date we had the 'when do you want kids' chat. I knew after that date that i'd marry him. Excuse the poor grammar, I'm stuck under 4 month old ds. ps.... dh turned out to be as amazing as i thought

Shamelessly placemarking

More importantly, do you actually know his middle name yet OP?

Amazed you are planning a future with someone whose shoe size you don't yet know.

You got a tattoo of his name on you and he dumped you

Update please! place marking

Me too SuperFlyHigh

He's asked you to marry him? But first he needs to transfer some money to his brother in Nigeria so he can come to the wedding? Could you lend him 3 grand?

Guys, be nice!

I want that update.

Placemarking.

I actually moved in with my husband within 7 days of our first date and we've been together 14 years.

I think it's ok to have this conversation early. My now DH and I discussed wanting marriage and kids on our first date. I didn't want to waste time with someone who wasn't on the same page.

This has entertained the shit out of me this morning!

And did no one notice they had a "fist kiss" in the OP? This is the funniest and most ridiculous thing I ever read. I'm marrying the man I met online this year, and we hit it off so well to start. But if I'd mentioned kids, or I loved him after two dates he'd have run for the hills - as would I.

You don't know each other. You don't.

He's a time traveller.

OP will post when she gets to Gretna Green. Chill out everyone :)

And did no one notice they had a "fist kiss" in the OP?

Yes. I could almost see cupid shooting his bow and arrow and thinking 'yep, I've done it again'

Come on, my popcorn is almost empty..

Don't give him money.

You're enjoying this aren't you OP.

don't give him money this, with knobs on!

Is he really 25 and turned out to be your son?

I would say we should stop being mean - the first flush of attraction is lovely! - but OP deserves it fir the update attention seeking
