Dear Queenie,
I have a wonderful boyfriend who only ever had one girlfriend before me and their breakup was very hard on him.
We have a lot of fun together but I’m not getting any younger and I’m starting to think about having children and I want to still be fairly young when I do.
My boyfriend has never said anything about how he feels about me or about wanting children or not wanting them so I have no idea how he feels about these things.
Queenie, should I stick with him and wait for things to work out?—Getting impatient
Dear Impatient,
Do not ask me, ask him!
One of the keys to a really good relationship is communication. You have to be able to talk to each other about things that are important to you. Once you can do that you will know the answer to the question you asked me.
