A lot of my girlfriends and clients in their late 20s and early 30s have shared the same experience with me. They’ve gotten in deep with a dude, brought up their timelines for having kids and the guy said he doesn’t want kids.

Remember those lazy Saturday afternoons you’d spend in bed making out with your husband? Yeah. Not so much when kiddos are in the picture. There are breakfasts to be made. Cartoons to be watched. Birthday parties to be attended. Plus, kids don’t really understand the idea of privacy. They’ll barge in whenever they feel like it and if it’s when you feel like it, well, that can lead to some awkwardness. You know what I’m talking about—the sex walk in.
