I turn 30 in a few months. The true death. It's over, I know it.

Also today I woke up to like 100+ alerts from Scruff on my phone. Is the app broken or something? lol

My little cousin just shit on my floor. I fucking hate babies/toddlers/kids.

Odds are you had similar accidents as a kid, sheesh. Not everyone wants to have children, but to actively hate them for simply existing has always unsettled me. Of course, it's the kind of vitriol I only ever see online, so..
 
Dat not so stealth brag.
Never. :(

Kids are awesome. I don't hate them but I have this irrational fear of them. I've never held a baby. I'm always deathly afraid I'm going to drop them or make them cry.

Well of course I don't actually hate them, they just annoy me.

And I probably did so similar as a kid. And people probably hated me as well lol.

I personally dont want kids simply cause I dont want to deal with the monetary investment from childhood til they are able to get their own things plus the emotional investment it takes.

I want kids and I don't.

I raised my little brother and little sister and it was a great feeling to see them grow into such beautiful individuals.

And I don't want them because I'm a crazy ambitious passionate individual and kids would only slow me down :(

I think about the slowing down part a lot.

How old are you two? Out of curiosity.

I think it's a fair stance to have these days. Most of my married friends don't have, or plan to have kids for similar reasons. Which I find interesting as most of them have very steady jobs and settled lives.

I dream of settling down and having kids all the time, but it'll likely never happen for all these same reasons. There's so many things I'd want to do in life that would not work well for raising kids.
 
I think everyone fucks up their kids to some degree so I kind of think it's self-serving to create life just to have the opportunity to do that. Maybe I'd raise kids if an orphan showed up on my doorstop and they didn't have any better options though.

I want kids but...

I want them with some genetic modifications. Basically get rid of all the bad genes (like disease causing genes) and keep the good ones.

I will not have children any other way.

My children shall not suffer because of bad genes.

I better start saving and getting a good job to pay for all of this, but it will be worth it.

Genetically engineered children \o/

26 years old going 27 next month. In my case I feel the economy itself is becoming harsher to deal with and adding one more person to worry about for what might be eighteen or twenty something years it will only be more difficult. There are things that having a kid stops you from doing things you could enjoy if you were with a partner or alone. For example I would be busy working to then be busy at home too taking care of the kid. There is a lot of responsibilities to deal with when having a kid and limits what things you can do. You can't be partying or going on trips or spending like crazy on things you want because it is a lot that goes into raising a child.

Obviously I'm aware all these things I think about might change in the future but at the moment I think I need more growth, more economical and emotional stability among more life experiences before going into something that big in life. (One thing is certain that there will be a dog or two)

EDIT: I remember I let a few Tamagotchi die in the 90s. Definitely not a good parent (JK)

22 and just trying to live life to its fullest. In the end I'll probably have kids when I'm much more older and settled, but right now life imo should be enjoyed. Pursue your dreams, travel. I have a lot of ambitious ideas that I want to make happen first too and kids would severely impact that lol.

You make it sound like marrying and settling down isn't enjoyable.

I don't think I implied that at all. I just said kids would make things slower/more difficult and as someone who needs to travel a lot and has a lot of ideas o;. I like the idea of marriage but it doesn't make the love I have for my partner right now any more or less, regardless if we did it or not. I understand the struggle because tbh civil unions and all that stuff sounded silly and kids would question why we couldn't get married but yeah, that's my whole speel.

Kids are nice, marriage is nice, but not yet as of right now ;)

I coulda been a rad dad, but at my age, it's hard enough trying to figure out how to avoid literally working until I die on the job without worrying about supporting a third (human) member of the family. The dog costs plenty as it is!

"Dogs are gay children", the struggle when the LGBTQ community couldn't adopt or have kids.

I'm an uncle, it is probably my favorite responsibility in life, but the best part is that I can send my nephews home.

So I guess I'm not ready to be a dad. Even though gay death is so near for me. :/

I totally agree. Kids and Marriage aren't in my plans for right now.

How long have you been with your boyfriend?
 
I wanted kids, but single at 29 with no prospects I think I'll have to settle with being an uncle, especially as I only wanted kids with one person and that's as likely as a cold day in hell...

See marriage is another ball game for me. A lot of people I know feel the same way you do about it and it makes me question how much of a hopeless romantic I am for valuing marriage so much.

I think that's pretty much what our fathers mothers, forefathers and foremothers ever thought and said, until they put on the ring and then the other ring.

Then boom!! here we are. \o/

Around 3 years.

Haha I value what it means. I was a hopeless romantic but I'm much more hopeful now. I'd say you'll be a very great partner for whomever you end with or who ever you're with right now. When I look at the meaning I see it as making a commitment of a life time and that's very important to me.

Transparency always, I trust you, you trust me, you tell me everything, I tell you everything, you're my best friend and I'm yours. I'll never hide anything from you and you'll never hide anything from me. You'll never leave my side and I'll never leave yours, I promise to never stop loving you, even if things may not work out, I'll still be there for you.

I guess that's what I'm kind of doing with my partner right now and you could say we're kinda married just without the official documents and what not.

If I did have a wedding though I would make it informal as hell and just have us dancing to 90's, 80's, 70's songs inviting our closet friends and family as we released pugs, corgis and pet pigs onto the dancefloor to trample everyone.

My wedding would be quick and as uninteresting as possible. Quick wedding with close friends and pizza, gaming and some booze party I suppose.

Now go all out on the Honeymoon

Ohhh, we're on the same page then. I guess I misunderstood. Completely agree!

Can I be invited to your wedding?

Corgis and pet pigs on the dancefloor sounds amazing.

Also, relevant:

Ya'll all invited and if you haven't noticed yet, yes I have an obsession with pet pigs. Gif is A+
