Question/Thoughts
I know this will get moved to relationship board, but i figure for nwo more traffic.
Would you stay with someone who you know did not want the same things as you.
Ex. You eventually want to get married and have children, the other person doesn't and makes it a point to say that.

Re: Question/Thoughts
nope! if I made it clear that those were my hopes, and his were the polar opposite, I would end it.
if you want marriage and a family, there is nothing to look forward to with a man who doesn't want those things, JMO.

Re: Question/Thoughts
I think its a subject that needs to be talked about in great lengths... if you love eachother and want to be together then you should be able to work out some compromise.

Re: Question/Thoughts
Get out as soon as you can. I have been down that road--most likely that is a topic neither of you will ever change ur minds about and it just wont work

Re: Question/Thoughts
No, I wouldnt. I think part of a relationship if its going to last and or a marriage is wanting similiar things. I honestly dont think it can last if your on different paths and or want different things IMO.

Re: Question/Thoughts
Not likely. Marriage & having children were two very important things to me & I could not see a happy future with someone who did not want those things.

Re: Question/Thoughts
absolutely not.
I made certain things clear to DH before we got married. Things that were not negotiable. I told him that if he didn't want these things, then we should end it because these are my "deal breakers".

One of my close friends just had a disastrous end to an almost 5 year relationship with someone who had different views on marriage and children

Re: Question/Thoughts
No. I wouldn't waste my time or his.
One of DH's friends was adament about not wanting to get married to his girlfriend or have a family. They were together TEN YEARS until he broke up with her.
While I'd fault him for wasting her time, he was honest about the marriage thing all alone. She was the one who stayed anyway, thinking he'd change.
