Did I prioritize money over love?

Did I make the wrong decision by prioritizing financial stability over love? I’m seeking a second opinion on my situation. Just before my 35th birthday, I ended my relationship with the love of my life (45 M) because he was unable to provide the financial support necessary to build our own family. You could say I was experiencing a mid-life crisis. I met him when I was 29 and had openly expressed my desire for children. I knew he had undergone a vasectomy. A year into our relationship, we decided to split the cost of the reversal, which was $8,000 in Alberta. He has three children of his own (16, 18, and 20). Throughout our relationship, I took on the role of stepmom, often compromising my own aspirations for his children. He raised them as a single dad and truly was the love of my life. He always reassured me that he wanted nothing more than to have kids with me. Yet, he still had his existing family. I have a successful career and felt financially ready, but he wasn’t matching my efforts. Over the nearly five years together, he struggled to maintain a job, which weighed heavily on me. We found out that the reversal didn’t work and decided to pursue IVF, but he didn’t have the funds for that either. After three years of trying to conceive, it became clear that I was facing this challenge largely on my own. After having my uterus evaluated, I discovered there were no medical issues preventing me from getting pregnant. Since he was the one who had the vasectomy, I wished to see more financial commitment on his part as a way to demonstrate his willingness to contribute. Am I a terrible person for leaving the love of my life over financial concerns? Now, five months later, I still find myself no closer to having my own family. It genuinely breaks my heart. I feel it’s unfair that I would have to shoulder the entire cost of IVF, considering how expensive it is. All I wanted was for him to assist me financially so I wouldn’t have to bear the burden alone. Am I wrong for choosing financial security over love? After all, money plays a crucial role in every aspect of life. After nearly five years of trying, I just didn’t feel financially supported, and creating my own family is of utmost importance to me. I’m still in love with him, but he still lacks the funds for IVF. I am aware there are other options out there, but they also come with costs. I’m reaching out to see if anyone has experienced something similar and to find out if I am indeed wrong for prioritizing money over love. Should I consider looking for a new partner—risking the chance of never finding love again and potentially being too old to have children—or should I accept a life where I bear all the financial responsibility?
