    Congrats. Having had lots of experience, being married is a good thing. Best advice I've heard is "Go into marriage with eyes wide open, stay in marriage by keeping eyes half shut".

    Thanks, and that isn't a half bad suggestion for marriage or life in general. :thumbsup:

      Oh yes, for some it might take much more time in the planning stage, and others might have an early beta release. But I hope he realizes that the boss can always change her mind and he doesn't have a say. It's the biological clock.

      The boss could try to change her mind. Fortunately modern medicine has made that a little more difficult than just changing her mind. :-\

          I certainly hope so! She was the one who visited the doctor. Not me.

            Oh, my bad. I automatically assumed it was you, as it's much easier to do for a man. :doh:

              Most people assume the same, so no worries. It was actually before she met me, so fortunately meeting me wasn't the reason which convinced her never to have kids.

                  IMO it makes sense to have at least one kid, and THEN decide... even if you're not a fan of other people's kids doesn't mean you won't thoroughly enjoy having a child of your own. Granted it's a big commitment that you can't undo. But billions of people have done it - it's not that hard is it?

                    I'm not overly active on the boards and pop in from time to time to share an opinion or get into a debate with the locals. However I had to share, because I am quite happy about the following. Finally popped the question to the SO over the weekend and she said yes! It only took 5 years of being together. I figured it was ample time to sort out most of the bugs in the architecture. Now deployment to prod is a little over a year away, but already working on those plans. Only a few more thousand :omg: dollars to go and everything will be paid for.

                      I have two, and that's about what I can handle. I made the common mistake to assume the reason why they won't get children. There are many more reasons than not wanting them.
