Here’s an email we got from a listener that wants to have kids, but her fiance doesn’t. Their wedding is this weekend! Should she tell him or not?
Here’s her email:
I’ve been avoiding a very serious conversation because I’ve honestly been hoping I’d change my mind and I wouldn’t have to have it. I’m getting married on Saturday to the love of my life. We’ve been together for 3 years and have always been on the same page about our future. He has kids from a previous marriage and has no desire to have more. I do not have kids and have always thought and said that I didn’t want any. We’ve been planning our life together happily on the same page.
However, soon after he proposed and my sister had a baby, I started to see things different. Over the past 8 months, I’ve started to realize that I’ve been wrong…I really do want at least one child. I do want to be a mom! However, I’ve been too afraid to tell him. I was afraid he’d break it off with me. I’ve really been hoping it was just a weird phase and I’d go back to how i have always felt.
Well, unfortunately, I have changed my mind and I do want them. Do I tell him before walking down the aisle? Do I just marry him and hope I can change his mind? Do I not tell him at all and just hope for a “happy accident?”. Help!
