My decision may have impact on relationship
Well basically I have made the decision that I don't want kids and 95% sure I will feel this way in 5-10 years time when that may become something that would come up with my partner. So I talked to my gf about it and she said she was disappointed but will stand by my choice. When she said this it pretty much made me feel sick and guilty.
Deep down I know she will want kids and tbh she would make an amazing Mother but I on the other hand hate responsibility and just can't stand children and simply don't want them which creates a problem. My gf is perfect in every way and we get on like we have known each other forever. I know we have many years
of happiness together and just lots more fun, loving and living to do together. I had the thought that we could live together happily for 5-10 years then when time came we could go our own ways and she can find someone who wants a family and all that but then nothing ever goes to plan and probably wouldn't play out like that.
I just don't know what to do. I feel this guilt for some reason and now it is a thought in the back of my mind that she will never truly be happy but she will live in denial just to make me happy and I don't want to do that but I don't want to lose her since she means the world to me and love her to bits.
Anyone been in a similar position or provide some advice?
Note: she also said that she would choose me over kids if it came down to it but that again makes me feel guilty or strange or something
