  2. Me a gay man from Slovakia whom always wanted to have kids and family. I did my degree and live here. I talked a lot with people my age (around 19-23) about kids. I mean a lot of us were at the end of Education, live was discussed, goals ext. A lot of the time I was asked what reason do I have for wanting kids. ... Nothing was a good enough answer. To not be alone when I am old is apparently bad and even rude, making me seem like someone needy and controlling. To carry on tradion (I was raised to understand nature around me, explore folk, arts). That was apparently too nationalistic (bearing in mind that I also like to study other cultures, their arts and traditions -by no means calling mine better than others). Saying to have someone to love and care for - too needy and selfish. There just was no good answer. To a certain Irony when it comes to relationships as a whole rather than kids. I was one of the last to be in a relationship, but many of them already had several. They often expressed frustration over the couple culture where cheating, people not being interested or Changing their mid was very frequent. Somehow I was called, almost universally as the "person who is likely to get into a relationship and then stay in it forever". So far that's working out 3 years into a relationship. All the people I know already changed atleast one... Apart from a German girl with a Slovak boyfriend who were together for over 5 years. - so I concluded that these is a strong overlap between what makes it right to have kids and then ... If you don't look towards having then , preservation ext... Your relationship goal becomes much more loose and less Couple Goal oriented. The few couples that I know and we're indeed together for few years are the only ones that keep striving towards housing ownership, more so those who aim to have some kids.
