Other Info:
I was asked about my reasons for donating and the person said I should post my reply so here it is:
I have been with my wife for 18.5 years, we are very happy, She is 11 years my senior and has children close to my age, infact that is how we met. We basically decided when we got together that we didnt want children, which for me was a naieve mistake, one i have regretted for about 10 years. Anyway, we brought up my wifes grandson (now 13) as our own child, due to personal problems with her daughter, this obviously kick started my parental instinct and since then I have longed to know I have a child, its something i cant even describe, its seems so irrational as i write it but.........We started trying for children but with my wifes age it was biologically too late, we tried IVF until the money ran out and then my wife suggested being a donor. And here we are. :)
Regarding parenting, this is something I would need to discuss with other parties. Seems silly to say but even knowing I have a child would be better than not, saying that I hold more value in the worth of parenting so please dont think Im dismissing responsibiltiy or being flippant. I dont think I could be without contact, I dont know wether photos and anonymity would be enough. Makes it sound like I havent thought this through enough, I think about nothing else to be honest, Suppose that doesnt clarify anything does it?
I am now single.
