Husband Makes Sudden U-Turn On Decision To Have Kids After Two Years Of Marriage

It was no secret that our narrator (Original Poster) wanted kids, but the cherry on top was her husband’s matching enthusiasm. 

They’d been married for two years, and right from their dating phase, they talked for hours on end about how excited they’d be to finally have adorable wee humans running around.

But this couple wasn’t all talk; as soon as they got hitched, each action they took was deliberately geared towards the impending family life. Like the four-bedroom home, they purchased to make enough room for the kids, and even OP’s husband's car was tactfully chosen for its spacious back seat—a fine spot for car seats when the moment eventually came.

With this vivid picture in mind, it was clear OP and her husband were headed in the same direction—well, at least that was what she thought. 

Exactly a year ago was the moment the couple pledged to start trying. But her husband convinced her to wait a few more months to settle, which seemed fair at the time since she had recently switched to a job with more family-friendly hours.

Her unease began when he kept pushing the goalpost the moment they got closer—until he mustered the courage to drop the bombshell: he didn’t want kids anymore. The most shocking part was he claimed OP “bullied” him into the kid frenzy all this while; in his words, it wasn’t something he wanted—maybe ever.

OP was devastated, and the depression hit fast. Her biological clock was ticking, but her husband remained unrelenting.

She could feel the resentment bubbling beneath the surface. What does she do now?
