We’re both 19 right now and we choose to thrive as individuals along side each other. What we feel indefinitely is love (3 years and ongoing I hope). Thing is he is very career oriented and wants to become a doctor. He’s already decided that he “might rather commit to his job”. So I asked “so… Thats your answer? You never want to have children?” He says “i just dont want to have a family if I don’t want one or can’t have one”
I want to have children at some point in my life. He initially did too. We’d created funny baby names for fun and now he says he doesnt want kids anymore. He feels that it’s also “because I don’t think ill ever see them bc of work or even have them on my mind”.
Is it too early for us to even ponder the thought of having children at all?
Do we break up now ?
Stay friends (we were initially best friends)?
Do I stay together with him because we love each other immensely and hope he’ll change his mind one day?
We both want whats best. We just cant decide the “whats best” part yet.
Please and thank you for any small/large tips of advice. I’m very appreciative towards any help. Have a good day/night !
