Since we've been together for quite some time now. My boyfriend and I have been discussing plans for the future.
I don't like taking anything too quickly, considering I'm pretty introverted, and get overwhelmed very easy when such things happen. Still, it helps to make a plan before then.
We both agreed that, if circumstances favor us, that when we are settled down and decide to have children, that I should be the one to stay home and raise the little babies while he goes off and works.
Before you jump to any conclusions, I am a feminist. Feminism is about choice, and I chose that, with the way I feel about everything now, I want to raise children in the kind of happy, stable environment my own mother could never give me. He didn't decide this plan for me. In fact, I was the one that suggested it to him, and he agreed to it. he said he wanted a family too, and someone to take care of.
I simply love children. I loved kids, even as far back as when I was a small child myself (though, I usually just ogled at babies.)
I used to think about a career, but my desire for a family was stronger.
I might change my mind in a few years. I'm in no rush to even get married. It still doesn't stop me from looking at babies and children, and wanting one of my own.
For being nineteen, I want to be a mother and a housewife unusually bad.
