I am getting married in June and am undecided on whether or not I want children. My fiance, however, has always wanted them. I didn't really want children before I met him, but we've been dating since we were 13 and 14 so I'm not sure that is important at all. Anyway, I am concerned on how it would affect our relationship and our lives in general... even though we've been together for almost 7 years, being that closely tied to anyone else would make me feel like I have an anchor around my neck. I just don't want to wind up like one of those couples that has nothing in common but their children, and that being all they care about. We are both in our third year of college and plan on getting our Ph.D.s in our respective fields and teaching at the college level. So, are you glad you had children?
