So here's a question. It's not really tech supporty, except in the fact that I work tech support. :D
Was in a long distance long term relationship with my ex-bf. At some point, we had that discussion about getting married and who moves to where who is and the v. silly discussion of whose job was better. At some point in the discussion, he asid something along the lines of "well, it doesn't really matter because you'll just be quitting in few years anyway to have our kids." (Background on that v. silly comment is that I don't want kids. Although, i'm open to changing my mind, the feeling has persisted for a good 4 years and is only getting stronger. I'm a grumpy onld woman and I'm only 23! DAMN KIDS GET OFF MY YARD.)
It really struck me as a 'one day, you'll grow out of wanting to play career woman and go bck to raising babies as God intended.'
Anyway, that can be pretty easily written off as a one-off thing, except that someone else I work with recently expressed a similar opinion when talking about our futures at our current company.
This feeling seems to be more prevalent than I thought...has anyone else run into it recently?
