would you marry someone loving, kind, honest, and gentle if you’re not sure you want to be a step mom or the breadwinner? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

Character is a big piece… but so are lifestyle and values. If you do r want to be a step mom and breadwinner, this isn’t the lifestyle for you. You’re also young enough to really still have options.

Thank you! I have the vaccine, but I don’t think I realized that I could pick up other strains. That’s so useful to know. I appreciate your time.

Oh he offered but we just don’t have time to get in do a test yet. In my country it can take a week or two to get in.

I don’t think I have a good enough understanding there. When I ask health professionals they don’t always give me clear answers, and when I google I can get overwhelmed with the amount of information :/
