This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]381907[/split]
ComicChick, you're very smart & cool. You get through this. You have a job and ability to get more.
Hello, is that you, my life?
CC why do you feel like a loser for not having kids at 26?! I'm 29 and in no rush to change dirty diapers or wake up to constant crying. Worry about that stuff in your 30s.
thanks
ha
i dunno. i guess i just realized that a lot of my friends are marrying and having kids and doing what they want with their lives and i just feel stuck. i don't really want kids right now, but i do want them someday. i think im just thinking about kids cuz my family reunion is coming up and there's gonna be a lot of babies and kids there
I'm 28 and a chick and sloooowly coming around to kids (at least getting more patient around my coworker's kids)....but they're just way too much responsibility for me right now!Jeez you think too much. Stop worrying, you're 26, not 46. When you have kids you'll long for the days you had your freedom... and sleep. Maybe it's easier because I'm a guy, but honestly I don't want kids until I'm in my mid 30s.
Could be hormones. A friend of mine knew she NEVER wanted kids, but was inexplicably itching for babies after she hit 30. She stuck to her logic and kept on using condoms and...no kids still. But it happened to her even though she absolutely knew she never wanted kids.There's that stereotype about chicks not having kids ending up being spinsters or old maids and ****. Even the most progressive females start to feel the squeeze at some point, ridiculous as it may be.

There's also the rub that the more intelligent and educated people are having less kids, while it's the less educated people having more kids.Truth.
I wish there were more old maids and spinsters. The world's overpopulated as it is.

Maybe not quite so. I know a lot of young liberals whose parents are Republicans or otherwise very traditional. It's probably just a generational cultural shift. Times just change.Oh crap, you know what that means, right? More Republicans.
I had a cactus once. Something that needs water about once a month. It died from neglect.
Yeah, I'm obviously not mature enough to take care of a kid yet.
I once had a roommate move out and the first thing I did was throw away his bamboo plant. Which I'm pretty sure takes almost no care at all but it was still responsibility that I wanted no part of.
I would have kept it. Take that bamboo it hit people with it. Bamboo hurts bad enough, but you get hit with it real hard...just thinking about it makes me hurt.
Or you could have made a cigar pipe...
