My boyfreind and I have been together for eight months. Throughout our relationship we have discussed babies, parenting, etc. I have voiced my desire to become a mother on many occasions. You see, for the past two years, I have been yearning to start a family of my own. My heart aches when I see my freinds with their children. I became divorced shortly before my boyfriend and I got togther (from an abusive relationship) and although I wanted a baby, I subconsciencly knew I didn't want one with my ex-husband. My BF is the first man I've wanted to have a child / start a family with. Ok, so here is the problem. Yesterday he blurted out that he does not want children and does not want to get married. This is a desicion he'd made many years ago, he says. Events in his past can make me understand his opinion. I do love him greatly, but this hurt me deeply. I will not leave him because of this, but how can I cope or maybe make him somehow see things my way? I feel as if my dreams have died...
