My boyfriend just came back from Iraq.he was by me yesterday and he said that he wants to have a baby.I want to have a kid too but i want to get married before i get pregnant.He said that is not ready to get married.what should i do?I am really surprised about what he said. when we decided to be together,we both wanted to have a serious relationship.he has a son with his ex girlfriend.She left him when their baby was 6 months and went back to her ex.We are both 29,we live in GermanyNeed advices from people who are married in the Military?
speaking as a father, and grand-father, i would say no way. not being ready for marriage but ready for a family is not going to work. it does for some but why should you change your beliefs. i am old school and think you should be married then start a familiy. i spent ten years in the military and seen boyfriend girlfriend with children go to hell in a hand bag. talk to him and tell him your feelings. he may get mad give him space after that if he wants, but tell him how important your feelings are,Need advices from people who are married in the Military?
Don't know how the German military does it, or if he's an American Soldier stationed in Germany, but if you two have a kid, he could claim that kid as a dependent and he'd just get more money. Personally, I wouldn't marry him because if something happened to you... You got sick or hurt, you wouldn't be insured through the military because you're not his spouse, but if you were married and something was to happen to you or your child, both would be covered medically as well as financially in the event of a death (If he has you and child as beneficiaries)
No, halt it right there. Military or no, this is not a situation to get into. First of all, you don't want a baby until you're married, thus don't try to get pregnant just because he does. Secondly, you really need to question why it is he's ready to commit to a child with you, but not to you. As far as dependents go, the only increase he'd get is in his BAH, being that he already has a child, he's probably drawing BAH with dependents anyway. It's doesn't increase with additional dependents.
I'm not married and never have been, but I was in the military. You would have to decide for yourself and talk it over with him, but I'd say no to the kid. I believe that if he isn't ready to get married to you yet, he really isn't ready to have a kid with you. At least, not ready to have a kid with you where the two of you would raise it together.
If he thinks he is ready to commit to having a baby but not ready to commit to marriage, he is retarded. Trade him in for someone competent.
im a married marine with a daughter.. this sounds suspect, im sure youre a great gal, but any guy who wants to father his second child out of wedlock is stupid. a man without the commitment to get married doesnt have the commitment to be a father. they are not mutually exclusive. it sounds like he is contemplating his legacy as stress over there can make you think about your mortality. I say you work on getting married first, then have children, and i am not even the slightest bit religious, but its just better for the kids.
