Maybe he doesn’t want them? I’m 40 in a few weeks, I don’t have kids and my partner is 36 now, we both just feel far too selfish still to worry about kids and aren’t sure we’d ever change our minds, his life is far more unsettled I imagine than mine is and I can’t even imagine having the responsibility of actually having a human being rely on my for everything, I still struggle to sort myself out! I don’t blame him if he doesn’t or doesn’t feel ready, I def don’t, and better to wait or not have them than rushing into it and cocking it right up! Lol!!
