Hi,
Your post made me very thoughtful. Are you in love with the idea of marriage and children or with your boyfriend? Sometimes it sucks but you can´t have it all with the person that you love. That´s why so many end up marrying someone who on paper seems fine but emotionally and sentimentally things are all wrong.
What is marriage anyway… just a piece of paper!! My boyfriend dump me, partly, because I was pressuring hi into getting married. I thought the piece of paper was going to make him commit more, when in reality it doesnt, if someone wants out wether they´re married or not, they´ll get out. That´s why the divorce rate is so high.
At the start you didnt wanted children, but you saw your friends getting married and having children and so thought you wanted those things. Do you really???? or are you just following the pre-canned life and formula to happiness that has been packed and sold to the masses.
Do you truly love your boyfriend?
What do you truly want from your heart? Marriage and children? or are you just feeling pressured to get these things because other people are getting them.
I just know that true authentic and pure love doesn´t come everyday. It´s rare, so if you´ve found it, don´t let it go, until you´ve really found what is it you want
