As in the first paragraph, the last one is there to define the range of what could happen, more to make sure the OP sees that it does not make much sense to ask what will happen, but to work it out on his own (with the knowledge he has about himself, his wife and so on).

If that's not all true but you go in with that "decision", you are in for a shock!
Dec 26, 2016 at 17:06	comment	added	peyre		These are very good points. One of the stereotypes out there is a woman getting pregnant in an attempt to hold onto a guy, but the reality is that that would be more likely to break up a couple. Children add stress to their parents' relationship; they amplify whatever differences/disagreements you already have, so if you don't have a very solid bond to begin with, they can cause your relationship to fail. That's part of why there are so many divorced parents out there.
