Has anyone broken up with their partner because you can’t/wont have kids?

I’ve always wanted to be a mom. I love kids and have always found myself babysitting or volunteering with them and I have always been naturally so good with kids. My diagnosis is not researched enough but some research has found that it can be hereditary. I could not live with myself if I passed my illness down to my child so I have decided I won’t have any biological children. As of now I don’t even know if I could adopt but that is something I would consider down the line if I were to get better. This brings me to my big question. I have been with my bf for 3 years now. We are both 23 and have talked a little bit about marriage and kids here and there but I haven’t opened up to him about not wanting to have biological children since is a newer thing I realized I will not be able to do. Even if he did want to stay with me after telling him, I don’t know if that would be fair of me to stay with him. I feel like I would be robbing him of one of the most beautiful parts of life and I love him so much I don’t think I could do that to him. I see him with kids or just interact with kids and general and just wanna sob at the fact that I may not get my own to love and take care of one day (biological or not). So anyways, what would you guys do? Have you found partners that don’t want kinds at all? Have you both chosen not to have kids and been happy with the decision? Does anyone’s partner resent them for not being able to have kids? I don’t know I’ve talked about this in therapy a million times but it doesn’t seem to help sooo maybe advice or real life experience can help on here.

Things to eat with chicken

So I dont have many foods still but I am gonna start trialing more foods again soon because I’ve been feeling a bit better overall. Is there anything you guys put on your chicken or eat with it to make it better. Like a sauce or something? I’m like gagging crying trying to get all my chicken down but I know I have to because it’s my only source of protein. I am grateful I can eat it and even have a protein source but oh my am I tired of it. I think this would the same with any other protein because I’ve never loved any type of meat really also so again any tips? I was thinking of maybe just mashing some potatoes and throwing them on top if I can find some I’m not reactive to idk I need more ideas.

Sticker vending machine profit?

I’m thinking of placing my sticker vending machine in a local coffee shop. I talked the the owners briefly about it and they seemed fond of the idea. I think if I show them my ideas and formally ask they will say yes. The sticker machine takes 1.25 per sticker and it costs me about 10c to make each sticker. What would be a good profit split? I’m not looking to become a millionaire I just am looking to make some extra cash and enjoy drawing and making stickers. Thanks!

Way to bring customers to your booth / giveaway

Hi! I’m doing my second fair ever and my booth is heavily book related along with some small sewing items like scrunchies and dog bandanas. My first one was book specific so sales were much easier than they will be this next time around. I was thinking of maybe doing a giveaway? Each person who purchases something can enter or maybe just anyone who walks by and wants to enter. I was gonna have it consist of a small tote bag, a blind date with a book, stickers, bookmarks, and a scrunchie. Is this too much or do you think it will help drive people to my booth? Or any other advice? Thanks!

Feeling like there’s a hair in the back of my throat

This started yesterday and I realized it happens every time I drink water. Has this happened to anyone else before? Any time I drink my water it immediately feels like there’s a little hair stuck at the back of my throat and making my stomach ache. I’ve reacted to water before and I found this one that I was perfectly fine with until now and I can’t tell if this is a weird reaction of some sort. I have finals coming up and finding a new water will be incredibly irritating :(.
