Anyone can say “I want to be a father”
Hogi says it’s common for a woman who wants a family to find a man who says he wants one too, and think “Great. Check!” but she recommends asking, “What does that even mean to him? What kind of father does he want to be? Does he have the character of someone who you’d want to have children with? Is he demonstrating an ability to communicate with you very effectively? Is he communicating an ability to put somebody else’s needs before his own?” Just because someone says he wants to be a dad doesn’t mean he has the qualities to make a good one. You still need to look for those, even after checking the “Wants a family” box.
