An age gap doesn’t have to be a problem at all. But wanting children is a compatibility issue that is a deal breaker — especially because you’re 41 and your biological clock has an alarm that should be shattering the sound barrier right about now.
If your boyfriend says he doesn’t want children, and you do, my advice is find someone who does and don’t waste any precious time if you’re planning on having children biologically. Otherwise, adoption is a great option — but not with someone who doesn’t want kids, period.
Resolve this, first, before you start introducing him to anyone in your family.
