Having a baby with my best friend

I am a 37 year old male, single and have never been married. I have always wanted children. One of my closest friends of 16 years is a 38 year old female. We were considering having a child together. We have always got along great and love each others company but nothing romantic has ever come of it. Should we have a baby?

Answer #3

… I don’t think so.

Answer #4

Do you have balls? Start a romance! You obviously are more than just friends, even if the two of you are so comfortable that it seems that you’re only friends. Don’t mistake a perfect relationship for being nothing more than friendship.

You sound like a slow-starter to me, but it’s been 15 years, it’s time to turn up the heat. I don’t know your personalities well enough to say anything more than that, but if my assumptions are wrong, and there’s no chance of romance, then having a child just doesn’t make sense to me…The notion is so strange, IT JUST MIGHT WORK. But, you have to ask yourself, would you appreciate it if your parents experimented on you? Sure, take a wild shot from the 3 point line, but don’t do it with a baby!
