(25,287 posts)I had fertility problems about 30 years ago. He kept having dreams about unborn babies. And we're Catholic. He's a devoted family man and everyone who knows him adores him. He is very anti-death penalty, he is very against cuts to low income families/parents/children. He is extremely pro-education. He is pro-science. He feels that if Republicans are really "pro-life" they would support babies after they were born.
But what can I say, I am not leaving my husband, devoted father of our 3 grown kids and grandfather over this. Can't have everything.
I actually dumped my other fiance for him. My ex-fiance was a rich Armenian doctor. (I'm Armenian and I'm sure Aram, a surgeon, is probably supportive of abortion, but Aram also told me that he insisted on playing football for 3 hours every night. He also had the annoying habit of walking in front of me.) My husband is a Mexican from a very poor family. He was accepted into medical school, but couldn't afford to go. Instead he became a public school teacher and earned only $7,000/year. He wanted to work with disadvantaged kids. He has been working with them for over 35 years.
He was really stupid to vote for Trump. He found Trump repulsive and was going to vote for Gary Johnson. At the last minute, he changed his mind.
