my girlfriend is 47 and i'm 26. we love each other but i'm not sure if i want children. at the moment i don't but who knows in the future. to have children with her isn't an option. she wants me to move in with her and get engaged but this problem is stopping me. she knows how i feel but seems to talk around the subject. she has 2 daughters aged 21 and 19 plus 1 grandchild aged 1.

willywombat agony auntWell children are going to be out of the question soon unless you get moving!

How much are you willing to sacrifice for this relationship. If you want to be a natural father at some point in your life you need to think long and hard NOW befroe this relationship goes any further - to stop the pain and heartache being magnified twenty times down the road.

I wish you luck x

mystify agony auntwhy isnt children with your girlfriend and opition/ is it because she dosent want any? in which case id wiegh up what you are more willing to sacrifice and have a long talk with her about it, if it is because she has had the menopause and cant have children then maybe you could look into adopting, both my husband and my mum were adopted and my husband adopted my first son , there is no difference in what my husband feels for my first son and the second child we had together.

or is there another problem , you dont say?
