Hi sakhi,
I was thinking of you, when I read "momof2's" thread. I guess, when you have experienced spousal abuse, then you're always on guard and never too relaxed anymore. You're looking for signs where there might be
none, but then again, you don't know for sure.
Usually the topic of having children vs. none comes up prior to marriage,
and normally the one partner who doesn't want children, is pretty adamant
about it. Has your husband always been against having his own kids?
How is his own family situation? Does he have siblings who are married
with children? If yes, is there a lot of interaction between your husband and his siblings. How are your husband's parents interacting with each other. Generally, when you examine his family dynamic very careful, you'll get your answers from there.
So far, your husband has complied with everything you had asked him
to, he will not jeopardize losing you again. On the other hand, one
doesn't know if he's just pretending or has truly changed.
