>> ~~Why w~~ ~~Time to channel my inner-Artie voice~~ First, I think this is something only you can answer at the end of the day.
>> Second, I know it's important to discuss that kind of stuff before getting married, but is what's decided going to change if you two marry?
>> I know some couples have kids right away asap, but do you and Myka want to do that if you were to hypothetically decide to have kids?
>> Because planning a wedding and adjusting to the idea that you're a marrying type and making sure your ickle doesn't blow something up, all at once, is a lot. Adding kids onto that and trying to work through emotional stuff is a super lot.
