I'm Breaking Up With My Brother
I'm leaving for two reasons, one of which is society's fault and one, his fault.
First, I can't live in the shadows anymore. I want to put my boyfriend's picture on my desk at work. I want to go out on dates and hold hands. I want to be able to tell our parents. (I mean yes, they had "met" my brother, but we couldn't tell them we were together!)
Second, I want a baby.
He insists it's not a genetic concern. We're both educated and rational people, so we know the risk is very small. So many issues can be tested for in advance now, anyway.
He just wants to live the childfree lifestyle.
If he gets a new girlfriend and then knocks her up, I will never speak with him again.
My biological clock is ticking. I need to meet a man who wants to make babies with me. I'd even accept being barefoot and pregnant if he wants a large family.
To my brother, if you ever reas this, I will always love you. Why, o why, don't you want to be a dad? Imagine miniature versions of us running around! Happy faces with our best features! And so what if they only have one set of grandparents? They would be loved just the same.
