s/o kuus's situation with the undisclosed house loan

Dear Amy: Three years ago when I started dating my husband, I asked him about kids and he said, "I could never have kids." Then I asked about what would happen if I got pregnant, and he said we would raise the child together. At the time having kids was not a priority for me, so I brushed it aside.

The problem is that once we got married (five months ago), I realized that having a child is a big priority for me and that I was running out of time.

I knew it was wrong, but I would accidentally-on-purpose skip days of my birth control, eventually ceasing to take the pills at all. I knew that if we had a child, my husband would grow to love it.

The problem was that, after months of this, I never conceived. A few weeks ago, I finally decided to broach the topic again with my husband.

I discovered that he had a vasectomy a year before we met!

He swears that he has mentioned it before, but I know he hasn't. I feel sick knowing that he kept something like this from me. I also feel trapped in my marriage knowing that it will always be just the two of us.

Should I get out while I can and find a husband who wants a child, or will I outgrow this need?

    "I could never have kids" is a lot different than "I don't want kids". Words people, listen to them. She's an idiot and he's a jack ass for not telling her straight out.

    I love how she's all "I stopped taking my BC without telling him" and then gets pissed that he left out the part about having had a vasectomy.


    They're both douches.  But also - if you've had a vasectomy, why would you have your wife keep taking (and paying for) birth control pills?

    #2 is why *she* might be taking them. He might benefit, too, but most men aren't even aware that it does anything except prevent babies. He might be an exception, but it seems shady.


    I am continually fascinated by the number of people who want marriages based on lies.
