It appears to me, most of the people with grown kids are ignored by those kids... So why bother having kids right? 61, married, no kids. I am extremely happy we had no children given this world. We have taken care of other people's children when they needed to live with us for a while. Once God showed me what was going to happen, I was super relieved we never had kids. |

Not leaving someone behind kinda sucks... But this world is horrible, so there's that. It appears to me, most of the people with grown kids are ignored by those kids... So why bother having kids right? The way I see it is this - The only reason you should get married and have kids or vice versa is if: a) you meet someone you really like and enjoy living with her. Or b) you unintentionally have a kid. I would never join with a person I didn’t like just to have a kid. That sounds like hell. So there’s really nothing to think about beyond that. If you haven’t met that person, what are you gonna do? But who knows I can be wrong. I have a Filipino friend. He said “Hey you wanna get married?” I said huh?! He said yeah, “these girls want to get married..” and proceeded to show me some pictures. I said I don’t know. I don’t even know them. I was checking them out and hesitant of course.. He said “you’re too picky man, it’s no big deal, you just pick one and get married.” I don’t know maybe he’s right. I wouldn’t be doing all the cooking and housework if I did probably. That's equals to saying goodbye to half of our patrimony, and having a monthly bill to pay, that doesn't necessarily mean that grant's you to seeing your kid regularly. Plus lots of headaches about how she raises your kid, and how the many "uncles" she brings home treats him. |

Women are scandalous and easily dazzled by smooth talkers then you lose the monogamy. It’s not her fault. It’s human nature. I don’t have anyone spending my money. I don’t have any in-laws stealing from me and live in gf’s bring them around getting pissy when you confront. 1 day you will realize you are lucky. A woman that puts God before everything is the only kind of woman you can have that makes you a better man. They are rare to the point the last 1 I knew died in old age 10 yrs ago. |

I really wanted a husband and children for years. I kept chasing losers and at age 35 gave up trying to find a partner and started trying IVF. God had another surprise waiting for me, endometriosis. Wasted $50k on IVF treatments. I probably would not have made a good mother with my temper. Today I spend my days with lots of farm animals and wait for God to call me home. |

User ID: 27629959 United States 03/18/2023 09:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sixty. I just couldn't find anyone. Every time I met a woman I liked, she was moved across the country. There wasn't enough time to decide if it was love. Most women weren't at all appealing because they disliked me. Men I knew who married usually had disastrous marriages, and even the ones with intact marriages would tell me that I was very lucky to be single. They felt like they were being worked to death. It wasn't hard to be single because I had low expectations of women, which they always took pains to meet. I liked to joke that women deliberately and maliciously tried to bore me, but they didn't have to try so hard because most women bored me without effort. It may be a problem that very intelligent people suffer from. My more general complaint all along was that women wouldn't speak to me, wouldn't dance with me, and wouldn't play with me. How boring would life be without a woman who speaks, dances, and plays? The women, such as they were, were dull, depressed, angry, and not at all playful. Usually, not even verbally playful. I didn't even want to imagine how boring they would be in bed. There was no regretting being single because I couldn't settle for a wretched and humorless woman, or a passionless and depressed woman. I couldn't change a woman's humor. 230 here, but 0 there. |

Daddy was sooo loved and adored Daddy helped them get drivers license and car. They said thanks dad... And fucked off into their lives. Have not heard from them in five years. No replies to texts... No calls answered. Nothing. I did hear from other sources that they all vaxxed. Are all probably dead by now. But as far as i am concerned... They all died in a tragic car accident 5 years ago. Cuz thats what it wss like.. Just...gone. Ive cried my tears..grieved.. And moved on. I still have the memories of their childhoods.. Thats enough for me now. Been there...experienced being a dad... Life moves on. I figure those of us that had kids were just supposed to raise them as best as we could. And then let them go. And if they like us and stick around fine. If they don’t and we never see them again fine. We did our job and learned a lot. I do not tell people to have kids. It’s a blessing and many times a curse to have em. You aren’t alone with kids that just up and leave with hardly a thank you. Maybe when they get older things will change. Who knows. But I do know people whose kids are just awful and they won’t leave the parents alone. Wouldn’t wish that hell on anyone. Would rather they just go away. |
