well, if i met a guy now, that i liked and he had kids, i would prob back away. at this point I do not want kids!!! NOPE-y.... i'm no where near ready!
i just know that i want to be ready before i have kids. at the moment i deal with anxity and depression and for the ones of you who have sufferd or suffer from the same knows what its like. for me its important that i work through alot of issues before i have kids, because i don't want them to be me when they get to my age, and i don't want to be my mom. (no offens to her, cause i love her dearly, but i just want to make it different. to break the circle we are in.)
for along time i did't see myself having kids ever. but then i met my boyf and slowly the thought has crept into my mind... why should i deny us that? to have kids and to make a family(consistent of more then two people). But still, we both want to be ready.... and we want to be able to give our future kids all thats good in life. and to break the circle now.
mr pointy: i like what you wrote... in that way you remind me of my dad( he is such a good man! ) he met my mom when i was like 8 years old (my little brother was 6 my sister was 2/3). and he came into our lives and he stayed there. been such a good suport for us, such an inspiration and a good parent 🙂 *sighs* i 'm so greatful for that man. He is just such a pearl... too take on the responsbility for 3 kids like that. and to love us all uncontionaly... ( i guess it was a blessing for him as well, since he later found that he can't have kids of his own.)
nice thread!
