Hi. I am a 30yr old male with CF. I cannot have children naturally.
I have been dating a girl for a while and she knows that I have CF and CF diabetes.
I have not told her yet that I cannot have children naturally.
I am really scared. She always says how she loves kids and I do not want to keep her from being able to have a husband that could give her this.
My issues with CF affect me so much in my head that I often stay away from the idea of marriage. But I really do care for this girl.
She has some health issues as well so I felt more comfortable telling her about my cf and other things and she completely understood and it did not affect how she felt.
But this is different. I almost feel as if I have no right to be with her.
I know that she deserves to have a man that could give her what she wanted
and often I feel like it is downright wrong for me to even consider being with someone and robbing them of these life expeirences.
I don't know how to tell her... and I don't even know if IVF would work... I have heard sometimes it does'nt.
I really need some advice and help with this.
Thank you so much.
