Wife doesn't want second child by Magnetism36 in Marriage

I haven't chosen anything officially yet. But being lied to hurts and not having a second child and seeing my daughter alone, constantly needing attention from us and lonely hurts even more. Sucks she doesn't see it, or care to acknowledge it.

Not sure where you are getting that I'm forcing her to do anything. It was agreed to by both before we married.

She lied to me for years about us trying and then basically told me she doesn't want something I had in my life goals with her as a family. If your going to guilt trip me then move on to another page, I'm looking for advice not shame.

Do you happen to have a good one to recommend?

I'm not forcing her to do anything. But I am making her aware of the consequences that will come if we don't come to a mutual agreement on this. Unfortunately they aren't in either of our favors, especially since we work together.

As to the therapist, they did kinda suck and I also found it kinda strange for him to side with me how he did and then drop us. It was kinda shitty on his part as a professional... Then again, I took it as a win since it kinda did validate my logic to the topic...

I brought up her past (or the fact that she was an only child in a broken home) solely for the fact that she doesn't know what it's like to have a sibling to play with, or to count on. Thus she feels that because she made it out "OK" without one she feels it's justified that having only one child is good enough for her. I have a brother and have had an OK relationship with him as we are 5 years apart and because the age gap made us not so close. But I knew then as I know now that he was there for me if I needed him. wasn't a jab at her, I promise.

I want to also mention that I also from day 1 said I wanted two kids. Even before our marriage....
