Sorry, I’m new. I hope I’m posting in the right place. It’s more relationship-based than purely about having a baby!
I’ve been with partner for ten years. I was previously frustrated that he hadn’t proposed and I made it clear. However, I said that it was too late for a wedding and I wanted a baby. He finally proposed last year and we delayed this year because of the pandemic.
If I’m honest, I’m not really thinking about a wedding and I’m not that excited about it. I’m already ready for a baby (I have been for a while) and I’m sick of waiting. I feel like he finally proposed to delay a baby, because I don’t really want to be pregnant when I get married.
I’m so frustrated that I have to wait around for him to decide the biggest things that will happen in my life! We’re not young. I’m on my way to 35! He has said we can try for a baby after we’re married.
I can’t stop thinking about it now though. There’s nothing stopping us. We have a big enough house and both got good jobs.
It’s really getting me in a bad mood and I can feel the resentment building! I’m probably being unreasonable, but I have been waiting for ten years. I’d say that’s pretty damn patient! How can I stop thinking about babies and just be excited about a wedding?
