AnonyMs: Good words, rain... good words... and I agree with them completely.  I was trying to convey if Allie was breaking it off because she wanted children and he did not, before making a definate NO decision, she might consider undergoing fertility testing as she might not bear able to bear children.

Wouldn't it be a shame if she made a decision about not being with the guy and it turned out children were not in her future anyway?  (Assuming adoption was also ruled out for whatever reason).

<modified when I reread this and saw it had been WAAAAY too early in the morning the first time I posted - lol>

wvalady1968: Sometimes you have to lose something to realize how very important it is. Having children has been a dream, but it just isn't worth having to live without this really, really great guy. Thankfully, he feels the same.

I don't want to change him and I don't want to force him to do anything he doesn't want to do, especially nothing as critical as another life. It's taken me 34 years to find this kind of love [yes, love]. I can't give it up for a pipe dream.

I don't know where it'll go or what will happen. We're just gonna take it a day at a time.

Sorry for all the drama. And thanks, you all. It was great to be able to talk and get such excellent advice.

Sometimes just a little talking is enough to work things out...sometimes it isn't.

Life is such a funny thing isn't it? On ne sait jamais ce qui arrivera.
