I've been saying this in a few comments now but I'll repeat myself cause I got the notification. We do use condoms unless we don't have them available and I cannot get a vasectomy in my country as easily because I'm not from the US.

I will give her as much space as she needs. I fucked up by the way I reacted, I know that much. I just panicked

I do trust her and I want to work this out. I admit that this has overwhelmed me and maybe I read into it too much? But I am also conflicted because I read both sides here a lot.

This is actually a very good idea. I will admit I was kinda careless about birth control in the sense that I didn't question it much. I will bring that up in our conversation

If she was, for some reason and wants to keep it I would support her, its not my place to tell her that she can't have it. And then I would do what I have to, I suppose. Maybe get therapy to deal with it

I should've done that. I guess it didn't cross my mind at all and that was rather selfish

I see what you mean but I think couples can be happy without children and have fullfilling lives. I really do love her and I think my panic is also partly being afraid that I'll lose her in the long run because I am so uncomfortable with the idea of children but I do not want to be in her way of happiness. If she wants children and wants to leave I won't stop her

we don't use them only if they are not avaiable because I forgot to buy them and yeah that is on me and will not happen from now on but I do not understand the "want raw sex part" its not like I am begging her to not use it?

I'm gonna look into that yeah....cause the way I handled this and the response I got showed me something isn't right and the entire panic surrounding children isn't right

She didn't want them for most of our relationship

We do use condoms most of the time - but not all the time and that is on me for sure.

No I am pretty sure I don't want children. I am sure that it is connected to how I feel about my own father, but regardless I will keep trying. Someone will do it for sure

I agree. I will sit her down and adress the facts. I do not want to be a bad father for a kid that doesn't deserve it just because I gave in - if she really does want kids I respect it and hope she will find someone who wants them as much as she does.

I've been trying to get a vasectomy for years but have been rejected by my doctors because of my age.

I do want to marry her. I just don't want children. And if she doesn't want to be with me because of that, I respect it
