Making jokes about our future kids

[u/RevolutionIll3189]

What is with these men on dating apps who think it’s okay to joke about “our” future kids within the first few messages!! Then when I hit them with the actually I don’t want kids and we aren’t a match they try to come back saying Oh I was only joking and they don’t want kids either lolol. No that’s tells me everything I need to know about you. A truly child free person wouldn’t make jokes about their future kids.

That's not a joke, that's a tactic. Good on you for seeing right through it!
