Hello all and thanks for any advice! So let me make this as short as possible. I was wondering if I’m ta for wanting to wait to get married and have children with my boyfriend. He seems to be hurt when I talk about wanting to wait to get pregnant so I’m nervous to bring up not wanting to get married either. For context I am 27f he is 38m we have been together about a year but we did take a break for a couple months in between due to various fights where he was in the wrong. He has been to counseling since the break. I told him I would only get back together with him if he a. went to counseling and b. stopped pressuring me about big milestones like marriage,moving in kids. I’ve given him no reason to think I’m up and leaving soon so I’m not sure why he is wanting to rush every little thing so bad especially after I told him I wanted to take things slow. He clearly is not respecting my boundary I made about getting back together but I’m not sure how to sit him down or what to say to him cause Ik he’s gonna get upset and get mad cause he thinks I’m “acting different”. He also brings up married and moving in/having kids at least once a day if not more.
