Cristabelle Garcia doesn't want kids, and her ex did.

- I loved my ex almost immediately, but he wanted kids, and I didn't.
- We avoided talking about the issue for a while, but finally, it put a strain on our relationship.
- We both hoped the other would change their mind, but it didn't happen.
The first time I looked into my ex's eyes, I felt a zing — a tiny electrical current that zapped up my torso and tingled my chest. There was no slow, gradual beginning to us; this was it.
