I need some advice on what to do and/or what do you think in my situation.
my partner and I have been together for 5 years now (we are of the same age) for the past 2 years, I’ve been bugging him to have a baby but he keeps on stalling that by saying we are not ready to have one yet because of having a low income and I am not healthy yet. my body clock is ticking, I'm past the high pregnancy age range.
- I don't have a pre-existing condition, I'm just overweight.
- Our combined income is enough to have a comfortable life. I pay for household expenses (rent, water/electric utilities, and groceries) he pays car-related expenses and food deliveries. WE Both give our parents, 10k each.
Sometimes, I want a princess/Queen treatment. I want him to want to give me flowers but nada. I want him to volunteer for household chores but nada. I want that under ni misis vibes but nada.
Just recently, I was hurt because he teased me about my minor insecurity (that I know he likes about me) in front of our guy friends. One friend even said ‘I can’t even say that my GF’. He always wants to portray a dominant in our relationship.
I love him and I know he loves me. We are at the same wavelength on humor and intelligence, we can talk about anything under the sun. we can tell each other’s crushes, how the day went, what’s our opinion on viral topics on Soc media, or any hypothetical scenarios. We are happy.
TLDR: I want a baby this year and my partner doesn’t want to have one yet. We are living comfortably and happy
