I would definately trust my partner to take the pill. When I started taking the pill I had to tell him to stop reminding me every night because he was becoming annoying. I made the mistake of telling him that I can be forgetfull at times. “Do you want me to get your pill for you?” “Did you take your Pill?” “Are you sure you took your Pill?” I know I would have no problem with him remembering. He forgets a lot of other things like where to put dirty dishes or where dirty laundry goes but when it would come to something like that there would be NO problem with his memory.
I think any single out there would be crazy to trust a guy to be on the pill. Much as I would be crazy to trust a girl to be. There are people out there that want kids and want them now, and it’s not fair to the kid or to the decieved if someone decideds the best way to get a kid is to lie and lay.
I’d take the pill in a second if it were available. Sure, I trust my girlfriend and all, but if I hear one word about wanting a baby, the one fingered gloves come out.
No. He said he’d get a vasectomy when we’re done having kids (we have 2) but as the time approaches, is getting weasely about it. He doesn’t like the idea of hormonal birth control anyways, so he would use that as his reason to be opposed.
And there’s no WAY I’m getting my tubes tied - it costs 3 times as much and the down time is much greater. So it’s condoms for us for eternity, or at least menopause…
