    I guess I wanted to know how he felt about it because I wanted to know if he was in or out. Was he going to be there as a father or not. We are not married. And I don’t think he has any intention of proposing, even though we have talked about it before in the past. And I am not going to pressure...

    Hi! I am new to the forum and I’m just looking for support☺️I am a NT female that has been w a ND partner for 12 years. In May 2023 we had a couples counseling session and decided that we were going to start trying to have a baby in October 2023. Initially, he was hesitant because he was saying...
