TL;DR: Met the most amazing guy ever but he wants kids, so we cut contact. Yeah, just like that. My heart hurts. This isn't a post of me complaining. It's a very specific situation. My problem is probably going to sound ridiculous, but I do tend to like guys who want kids or are considering having them more than antinatalists or people who don't want children. Of course, that's just in general and maybe even coincidental, but I'm curious how you've navigated situations like this before. When I dated my ex he wasn't sure whether he wanted children and he just kinda adapted to me. He did later on insist he wouldn't have children ever but knowing him, he'd also cave in if someone came along. Another problem I have is that a person simply wanting kids changes their whole perspective of the world, so I feel like we might not be able to resonate when it comes to that either. Plus, I actually don't like children so have a hard time adapting to antinatalists who are good with children too.
