Editing to address some things from the comments!

1. Yes we are 10 years apart but we have a lot of stuff in common lol. Age has nothing to do with that.

2. I know he wants kids because we have talked about it before and he has said that he does want kids, he just doesn’t right now. I don’t right now either but if he wants them eventually, why would he say he’s okay with me getting a hysterectomy and not being able to have more kids in the future, unless it’s because he doesn’t see us being together that long/that being our future.

I just want to make sure I don’t over-react so looking some advice.

So my boyfriend is 10 years younger than me and not ready for kids yet. He doesn’t have any of his own but I have 3 of my own.

I have had 3 surgeries on my tubes and have a lot of scar tissue and I have a hormone imbalance that I am currently in the process of trying to get balanced back out.

Having more kids is definitely possible for me but it wouldn’t be easy necessarily.

So anyways, because of the scar tissue and such, my obgyn said I can have a hysterectomy if I want to and they can just leave one ovary in and clean everything else up and I would just go on hormone replacement therapy.

It’s not medically necessary or anything so she is leaving the option up to me. Or she said if I think I want more kids later then we can just do a laparoscopic exploratory and go in and clean up the scar tissue and keep working on my hormones and getting them balanced out.

So anyways, I mentioned all of this to my boyfriend and I was like, so I might just take her up on her offer and go ahead and let them take out everything except one ovary, would you be okay with that? And he said yes. I then explained to him that would mean no more kids for me ever and he said that is fine.

I have been on the fence if I want another kid before It’s too late for me or not. He knows this, we have discussed this!

Sooooo now I feel like he might not be as serious about this relationship as he says he is (we talk about it often because I have been married twice before and was in another long term 5+ year relationship and I don’t want to waste any time if this isn’t going to go anywhere or get any more serious than it already is or I thought it was)

So should I tell him that I feel like him saying that means I don’t think this is as serious as he makes it out to be? Should I just end the relationship now? Am I overacting?

Please help
