Any Advice??!!
This is a long story.
I went to high school with this guy and we had some of the same classes together, but were not into each other like that. He was more like a classmate. We would speak to each other and have conversations, but when school was over, that was it.
Skip to 3 months ago, we saw each other again in a local bar and exchanged phone numbers. Soon after that, we started dating and about a week ago, things were getting kinda hot and heavy. We went almost everywhere together and did a lot of stuff. The movies, walks in the park, long hours on the phone til the wee hours of the morning, out to dinner. I mean you name it, we did it. He would bring me ginger ale for my upset stomach and flowers to make me feel better.
Last night, we started a conversation about kids and things got ugly. He is VERY ADAMANT about NOT wanting kids ever!!!! He's 23 yrs old and basically told me that he doesn't see his life with kids in the future. I on the other hand want kids at some point in my life. Today, we broke up. He feel very strongly about his side and I about my side. He says that "there is no compromise" and I said "if that's the way you feel and you are not going to change your mind, what do we do?"
Why was this such a big deal to him? I don't know. I felt that there were underlining problems there, but couldn't get to them because he wouldn't answer my question when I would ask. How could he just walk away after what we had and the possibility of something special? He says he would rather walk away now than to invest 3 or 4 yrs to encounter the same problem.
Before this conversation, things were going great. He told me that he loved me and we even have tickets to the Best of Both Worlds Tour with floor seats that we were excited about. We had a vacation planned for next month that I just called to cancel. I mean my heart is in shambles. The moments that we've shared and the way that we felt about each other was so special.
I just don't understand. I wanted to this to work out, but I can't do it alone. Help me mend a broken heart!
