<human>: Condense the text into a few key points

Throwaway account to avoid identification, since nobody else knows that I'm thinking this. Here's the deal: Growing up, I was always told I had potential, and I always feared mediocrity. Honors student, high test scores, currently attending university. I always knew I wanted a career and an income and independence.

Now there's this guy. It's only been a few months, but I really love him and I feel like if we can get through the next couple years until I finish up school, I would want to settle down with him. I know it's a lot to expect from the short time we've been together, but I trust my gut/hormones for right now.

A little background about my family: my parents got married young, and my mom gave up an opportunity at higher education to instead start a family (me). And I've always pictured myself getting married and being a mom. For years this maternal desire has conflicted with my values, namely self-reliance and a career, and I told myself that I didn't want to make the same mistakes my mom did that now force her to work jobs that she hates.

And it's not that I don't think a married woman with children can't also have a career, but I can't picture myself being both at the same time. I either see myself as [one of these] or as [one of these] (wow I never thought the google image search for "housewife" would be so entirely nsfw). And now I feel like I'm leaning toward the latter. I skipped school yesterday to clean and cook. Now I have a project due in four hours that I don't even care about because I don't feel like I want to have a career anymore, even though this class is pretty much the gateway into my dream job. Instead I'm browsing TasteSpotting.com and bookmarking recipes to make in the future, and I found these really cute aprons that I want to wear while cooking them.

Anyway, here's a
<bot>: Smart girl doesn't want a career, instead wants to have babies and become a French housewife. What's your take on this?
