What you need to do is to evaluate your relationship throughly. Do you think that he's worth waiting on? Does he have the qualities that you want long term? Did you sit and plan your long & short term goals together? Do other of you have a stable situation to accommodate a child? May be he want to be financially comfortable before he has a child, so as not to put any strain on the relationship when it come to raising a child. 25yrs is still young to now have kids yet. If you check the articles as of late, people are waiting until they are much older to have children because they are more stable to suuport them. Talk to your boyfriend and get his opinion. And if you can't deal with it, then you have all rights to leave.

Either you have to wait with this guy until you're in your 30's, or you need to move on from him. Because he's not ready to have a family. So you need to decide whether this is the guy you want to be with and whether you can wait, or whether you'd be better leaving.
