I was late getting my period last week (though I did eventually get it), but my partner got REALLY worried about it. He is divorced, and doesn't think he wants any more kids or to get remarried. I don't need a marriage certificate to feel like I'm in a solid, committed relationship, and at 27, still don't want to be a parent.
I was worried by his reaction, though. I don't want kids now, but am concerned that I might feel the urge eventually. He's only 32, and I think the failure of his first marriage has scared him out of that particular type of committment and family life. Is that permanent? I don't mind not getting married, but have no idea if I will feel that way in 5 or 10 years...
Should I be worried? Is this a compromise that many couples have to make?
