Senario - lets say that you have been with this girl for about a year. You plan to marry her and have kids together. She goes to the doctor b/c she has been having problems with her body, and the doctor tells her that she cannot have kids. Now guys, would you continue to stay with the girl of your dreams, or move on to somebody who can have kids? Tell me..

It depends on how much you love her and how important children are to you. Remember there are other options - adoption or even IVF treatment if appropriate. There are so many children in the world who need a good home but if it is really essential that you have your own child then you need to decide whether you can deal with the prospect of never having one of your own. If you can't then you should end it with your girlfriend now. I suppose it's all about priorities - you have to decide which is more important.

I a guy truely loved a girl and she couldn't have children, he would not leave her for someone who can. I would be devastated if my boyfriend left me only because I couldn't have children. There are other options like adoption.

Yea, I agree with all of you. I really want a kid who is my own, but if my soul mate couldn't give me one, then I guess i'm not ment to have one of my own.. I would still want to be the father to a kid - so I would probably adopt.

No I will not leave her. I will stay with her. Give her support and adopt an orphan and raise the child like my own. I will be happy that this kid, gets to have a new and better life because my wife couldn't concieve.....I'll go ahead. I won't quiver for a moment.....

What if she wanted to be alone b/c she was afraid of hurting somebody b/c she couldn't have a kid? How could you get her to stay with you? After trying so hard to convice her?

You can save up sme money together and get good medical help wih this it could be possible to do invitro if she has eggs or get a surrogate. It would still be both of your DNA so no problem. Yes it can be a difficult hurtle to cross but if you love the person you would do what you could. :)

If my girlfriend could not have a child i will still be with her because of my true love for her. i can always adopt a child. But true love is difficult to find.

Definently stay, I mean, you could always adopt. If you love her, that shouldn't change the situation.

If you really loved this girl, you would stay with her. There are other ways for you to have a family together. Many other options are out there. You could have a serragant mother (spelled that wrong i think) and there are other ways too.

If you truly love this girl there would not be a question as to whether to stay with her or not. She should not be punished for having medical problems that prohibit her from having children.

If you are truly in love that wouldn't even be a problem, you would stay. There are other options such as adoption.

I had a similar problem. We married, and now have 3 kids. The dr's were amazed. You marry for love and companionship. Kids are a byproduct of this relationship.

Well if I was truly in love with her I would without a doubt stay with her. If I was really bent on having kids I could always adopt or they might find some kind of way to help my wife have kids with all the medical research going on. Having kids is a big goal of mine but its something that I can overcome if the circumstances dont work out.

It depend on how strong you love is for her or to have kids, or you could consider adoption.

If someone would leave me because of that then they weren't someone I would want to marry anyway! That would be so rude. You can dopt kids or get a surrogate mother to carry them for you.

How badly do you want to have kids? Enough to give up the girl of your dreams? There are thousands of children out there waiting to be adoped. Could you raise and love a child who wasn't biologically yours? You have a lot of things to sort out before you make any decisions.

Now, if you truly loved her and this was the one would that make any difference? You can always adopt or use a surrogate(unless she's producing no eggs) Think about it... :)

There is always adoption. I would do pretty much anything to stay with the girl of my dreams once i find her. Happy earning!!

If you truely love her you will stay with her. If she cannot have children of her own you can adopt or even possibly use a surrogate to carry the child. There are ways around the bearing chilren thing. You will miss the pregnancy stuff but a lot of it you can do without.
