I have been dating my guy for over 2 years and we get along great. We are even planning on moving in together. Lately, though, he keeps joking around about me being pregnant. No, I haven't gained any weight, either. He convinced one of his buddies that I was knocked up. He even asked me why I haven't tried to get pregnant in order to "land him". Thing is I have never dated any guy who would even mention the p-word. He acts like he's just joking around, but it sure seems like he is thinking things, but doesn't want to actually say it. (And, no, I am NO HURRY to have a baby, I would like to be married first. I'm 31 and still have time) I know he knows that it irritates me, too. But, I have NEVER known a guy who would go on and on about such a thing... What do you guys think? Is he just joking to get under my skin? Or do you think that he's possibly wanting it to happen?
This is a completely new thing from him. When we first started dating, we had a couple small talks about our views on marriage and such, just to see where we stand. Lately, he's saying something practically all the time. He already has a 6yr old, too.
 
He probably wants to have a baby with you and start a family. You both will be moving in together and after that he may want to get married and start a family with you. I think guys sometimes joke about it because that is something that they want and sometimes they won't be serious and come out and say it but I would definitely talk to him about to see whats up.
 
It sounds to me like he's taking the initiative here. Does he normally joke around about other things? This may just be his way of letting you know that he's ready. I'd try to talk to him about it though. Good luck.
 
It could be a bit of both. Try communicating with him to see where his mind really is, if he's doing it to just annoy you then he needs to grow up and if he is trying on purpose just make sure your protected.
 
Maybe he's ready to move on to the next level (marriage, children) but is testing the waters with a joke to see how you respond.
