You guys give me such hope. I am only 24 but my mom has been encouraging me to have kids since I was 18. (the rest of my family is just as bad). I never wanted children and now I am engaged to a man who doesn't want them. So in 15 years I really hope to be like all of you.0

I'll be friends with just about anybody. I was curious if there were women out there like me with no kids. It's great to meet people in common and I'm finding it' not common to be kid-less in your 40's! Please add me!
That's me too!
Although I still hold out hope that I will be a mommy someday. :ohwell:0 -
I'm in my 40s - no kids, never been married, not interested really in either... and deeply sincerely happy and fulfilled. :-) So fun to see so many others in our place in life!!!!0

39 and married, no kids- just two GREAT dogs. I coach figure skating, so I get to borrow kids- then send them home at the end of the day ;-) Better yet, I typically choose the ones I want to borrow.0

I'm 44, mother of 2 grown daughters. I had them by choice. I wanted to let you know that just as all 40+ women are not spinster cat ladies, not everyone will give you crap for not having children. I have the utmost respect for you gals who have chosen to not have kids. For whatever reason. Enjoy living your life as you choose! Sorry about the people who give you grief about it.
I do have a question for you though. How do you feel when people ask if you have any kids? I often will ask just because I like to know people's stories. Do you tell people that it's by choice, or do you fear getting their 'why having kids is so important' speech? Fyi: you wouldn't get that speech from me.0 -
Right here! I'm 45, even though this for some reason added a year on me! No kids! Woooooot!0

40, no kids, single.. I do have gentle men friends though, and lots of great friends that fill my life with love-laughter and fun!!!0

I think that is a personal thing that no one should have to feel like they have to answer, no matter the motive behind it. If someone volunteers it, fine. But after all, no one asks people why they DO have children or why they want children, right? If someone asks me, I just say something like, "Boy, that sure is a personal question ... mind telling me your bra size?"0 -
42, married 20 years and no kids!! Yeah!!0
-
46.... No Humans over here. Just two wild and crazy Pomeranians. And a goldfish. Wow. I thought I was the only one. Guess its not rare, look at all your responses. Kinda makes me feel a little better. Thanks for your topic. Its nice to know.0
