who here is 30 + and has no wife or kids Explain why

[LordMU]

Imagine unironically ending your line of descent voluntarily after 4 billion years of evolution which produced you because you want to remain a child yourself. F*cking losers ITT. I feel sorry for anyone who falls for the childless meme.

Righto and then what? Your dead and you spent your time here slaving away to have half your **** taken by the government, your house removed and being forced to see your kids raised by another man in a manner not to your liking; while you pay alimony + child support.

I intend to get married but if you can't find a really good one it's definitely not worth the risk Imo.

[thadderbox]

Late bloomer I suppose?

Focused more on my career than anything, but also just prefer to be alone, don't want to take care of anyone else but myself.

Plus, don't like kids -- nor do I have the patience.

I'm sure if I could have been married by now if I REALLY wanted to, but just enjoy sleeping around instead.

[latverian41]

Divorced.

GF is pregnant so working on that OP.

Congrats mate!

I hope it all works out for you.

[AgRyan]

I'm really focused on my career and banging random sloots. Not random as in I pick them up from bars, I suck at that, but I'll date them for a week or a month or two and then get tired of them after whatever red flags get presented. I will say though, the quality of girl I have dated in the last 3 years has been amazing. Pretty much every girl has been "wife material", I'm just not ready for that family life. Realistically, I'm looking for drinking and fuk buddies at this point and not a wife. I will probably marry the funnest fuk buddy/drinking buddy whenever I meet her.

Marriage is a combination of the State and "hollywood-forever-and-ever" love....not a fan of either.

there are enough people in the world, only a really selfish person would make even more.

My post said NOTHING about marriage or the current state of it.

It was directed towards these “men” who want to be Peter Pan and end their genetic line voluntarily.

[MediocreGains]

Strong bump.

Anyways, I never had much desire to get married. Most of the married people I've known were miserable, and I couldn't comprehend the idea of being with just one woman for the rest of my life.

That said, I plan to marry later this year and will likely have a kid at some point. We'll see how it goes.

[jiujitsubro]

28. not 30 but close Just ended a LTR.

Girl was still in school she was 35 and living with her parents.

Enough really said about that but she was forcing kids and a relationship non-stop

My bosses boss said him and his wife 'tolerate' each other. If it wasn't for their accidental kids they wouldn't be together.


He said he enjoys his kids non-stop, but I can see the pain.

She was 32 just the other day

[momo5]

Enjoying life man I don't mandate or live based on the rat race of getting married and having kids. Life isn't a instruction manual where you go to college and have kids and specific points,etc.

Maybe they just recognize the parasitic nature of most relationships and don't want to act as a host, having resources and life sucked from them until nothing but an empty, soulless husk remains?

[truthhurts]

some guys just don't feel they need that in order to get fulfilment in their life....

others, it just happens for them/things take their course etc

and then others...socially conditioned in to thinking they NEED a wife and kids to make their life worthwhile

also, threads old as fuk

Imagine being such a Marxist cuck you think the biological instinct for children is a social construct

[AniMaLizTik]

so that's why you're not having kids, because you're not selfish? Fukk off

you seem very angry. hope you feel better man

[Droopdx]

27, but would be a huge shocker if I was married, or had a kid by 30 since I’m single right now.

I focus too much on the negative of a girl I’m dating and don’t want to settle for anything less than a HBB, id rather be alone than with someone I’m not fully committed to. Relationships are a lot of work, and heartbreak sends me on a downward spiral. My dad was/is the type to be depressed as fuk if he wasn’t in a relationship, and I don’t want to be like that.

[FreedomPenguin]

I'm 30 not ready to settle down and have other people dependent on me

im 28, but this is my logic. ^

[manletstrength]

I don't want kids because I don't want the responsibility of having to raise them and I have my own slew of problems already. Don't need anymore problems.

[maori-rap]

Because getting married and having kids just doesn't and has NEVER appealed to me. It just doesn't fit in with my overall persona, interests and the nature of my existence.

Besides, getting married would be a distant dream anyway. Still never had a gf or even dated at 36. MGTOW all the way for me (no cope). I prefer to focus on myself, fund my own lifestyle and spend time with family when necessary.

[tunafish01]

She was 32 just the other day

LMAO this. Guy is such a turd

[Jimbo0731]

Surprised so many are on the "No Kids" train. Feel like you guys are gonna miss out or regret one day but to each their own. I will be married in the next 1.5yrs and will be trying for my first born within that timeframe as well. Reason I am starting so late is due to getting my life in order a little later than expected. Was laid off in my mid-20's from a chitty IT tech job thinking I'd be moving up the pay grade quickly as I work hard. After realizing it was a blessing in disguise as IT work is a soulless job where you work with the most depressed incels and nobody ever appreciates anything you do, I went back to school for Mech Engineering. Have a decent career in the consulting field with lots of room to grow now and decent pay.

If I was to go back to my younger self, I would've partied a lot less and focused on a 'career' path so I'd be where I am now but 10 years younger. I'd definitely be a lot wealthier if I did.

[Visel]

Over half a decade away from being in my 30's, but man I hope I'm free of kids when I get there.

I have MANY experiences and financial plans to make before I'm anywhere close to that age.

[DPeezy13]

Me, not interested in either. I've been in some serious relationships and was engaged once. I'm a loner (there are a plethora of other reasons) and realized I don't want those things. Still carry some guilt about the ex fiance (she was a pretty good woman who really wanted it to work out).

Edit - lol apparently I already answered this a few posts back (years ago). However, my answer has changed a bit and now I'm not interested in either of those things in the slightest.

Lol I always see you pop up in these types of threads

[fishnbrah]

y'all motherfukkers gonna become instant dads, raising some little fuk trophy rugrat that your old lady had with a one night stand 3 years earlier

Well the two go hand in hand. You can't have a child in the modern day without getting the state and family law involved; regardless of whether you want to get married or not. In some states just living with a girl-friend for X-years implies that you're in a de facto-relationship and are for all intents and purposes are married should you split. Even more so if you have a child.

Not everyone finds the same fulfillment from life as you. You seem very pre-occupied with your genetic line continuing but is it worth potentially sacrificing your happiness and freedom for? Perhaps for you but not for others. For some their own individual freedom and happiness > then knowing their genetic line contiunes. For others, the risk-to-benefit ratio makes it a poor decision.

[maverickTT1]

thats life son. one day.

[karseet]

good thread.

[jasticus]

Going to be 30 this year.

Not ready for kids and don't think I want one. On top of that I don't like to answer to ppl and neither do I like the responsibility.
I'm not sure how long I can drag it on for but we'll see.

stoll single? Srs

[Cynic09]

stoll single? Srs

Wow, haven't posted in ages. Thanks for bringing me back, haha. Yes, still single and I'm certain now more than ever I don't want marriage. LOL! I have no desire for kids or family. I think I am doing it right. Just gotta get out of the 9-5 life.
I have like 2 girls who's interested but I tell them flat out I'm not marrying. They're still trying to convince me. I do the ONS thing or the GF exp if possible but no more than that. It's take it or leave with me.

I enjoy my freedom too much at this point. Don't care for kids.
