    Lol. You might feel the odd one out in your circle of friends (and maybe at work), but the truth is that there are MANY single chicks-past-the-age-of-25-years out there. Truly, it's no worse off than being part of a couple . . . . .believe me, there are not so great moments on either side of the fence! You appear to be a confident and strong woman, so just continue defining your life for yourself and you will be fine:happy:

    Congrats on the magnificent weight loss!!! You are looking good. :flowerforyou:

    I'm pro cat. In fact, I can send you a couple! Seriously, I have access to massive numbers of the cute, climby, purring, clingy things.

    Nah you're fine. I'm 30 no kids. Never married. It'll happen when it happens.


    It'll happen IF it happens. Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt. Now the kids are grown and gone, I'm divorced, and I've moved halfway around the world! I'm loving my single life and don't expect to ever give it up again.

    I did not get married till I was 28 had first child at 33 2nd at 34. Or shall I say my wife had our two children I just stood next to her while she gave birth. And dont get me wrong I love them to death but sometimes I wonder why the heck we decided to have kids. Oh yea and one step child but Ill claim her as my own.

    I'm 29, never married and no kids. I call that success! I was just wondering this yesterday actually. With the cultural phenomena of adultolescence (people increasingly remaining psychologically adolescents as well as financially dependent on their baby boomer parents well into their twenties and sometimes thirties) whether this was going to be the result - i.e. a trend of people getting married and having kids 10 years later then the previous generation did?

    Hell, I was 39 when I got married (and have no interest in having kids). 27 is YOUNG!! :drinker:

    There is nothing wrong with your choices. I'm 36, never married, and have 0 interest in ever having children. Some people are supportive and respect my choices and others don't get it.

    Never do anything simply because it seems like it's what society expects of you. Live your life your way and try to enjoy it as much as you can.


    I'd rather you admit to not wanting them than to have children and not do *kitten* for them! So, good for you! I totally get it. Maybe you can teach a class to some men & women....Sorry early morning rant lol :flowerforyou:

    Another one to add to the group! 27, never married, no kids and I plan to keep it that way for ever.

    I would like a dog, though. Right now I just have a pet rock that craps (aka, a turtle :p)

    It is an odd stage though, when all your friends are getting married and having kids. Just doesn't appeal to me, though. Why yes, I will get drunk and/or take a nap in the middle of the day, simply because I can. Nobody to watch out for but me! :drinker:

    I just turned 37, no kids (unless you count the Hubs) and I don't think any will be coming soon. I'm only married because it was easier on taxes & such forth. Been together for 10 years, married almost 5.

    I'll tell ya to wait till you ready & don't settle.

    I will be 40 in September and have never been married as well as no kids. I am very content with my life even if it didn't go the way I thought I wanted it.

    Am I weird? Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against people people having babies or marriage. but I'm starting to get the feeling that I am the odd man out on this site. Anyone else want to be friends with a single chick with no kids who gained her weight through bad eating and not getting out of bed? =)

    Everyone reading this, have a glorious day =)

    I hope not. I'm 34, never married, and no kids.
  • YESS. i sent a friend request! im 28, never married, no kids.. WAS 327lbs when i started here. 132lbs DOWN.. nothing against anyone with kids or that is married either but its refreshing to find someone who doesnt have that going on too. i honestly never thought I could lose the weight because it wasnt from having kids.. i figured i was stuck with it. you know that it would be too hard..

    ANYONE can add me tho. =)

    Haha, well I am only 19 but still never married or don't have kids, like some people my age do. However, I have never had a boyfriend or have never been kissed before either.

    Me too! Was engaged but realized it wasn't right. I don't want to settle. Sometimes I wonder because I don't know very many single people... but then I realize I DO know a lot of people that have gotten divorced in their 20s and a lot of people who will date anyone just so they aren't single. I would rather be single than that.

    I'm just about 27. No kids, not married. I say its better to be responsible and stand behind your choices than to settle and end up being miserable or making anyone else miserable. My friends have kids, thats good enough for me lol

    You're not alone! I'm also 27, never married with no kids. I have a boyfriend of almost 6 years on and off and we've talked about getting married and having kids but we're not there yet. I guess I'm really in no hurry.

    I didn't get married until I was 28, and even then, I had no real desire to do so until I met my future hubby. When I discovered that he vacuums, cooks, and does other helpful domestic tasks, I figured he was a keeper. I'm almost 50 now and never had kids. Never really felt the need. Follow what feels right to you and your life will unfold as it's meant to.
  • Hello everyone,i'm 27 from holland,i'm in a two year relationship now,my girlfriend wants to get married and wants kids,but i don't believe in marriage,and kids,,,uhm i love kids but i'm scared that he/she will get my hereditary diseases,like-
    -eczema
    -astma
    -allergies,for absolutely everything
    - celiac.

    so, we've decided to just take each day as it comes, and not look in the future too much.

    27, single, never been married nor anywhere close and no kids. Just haven't found the one. And now, I'd rather focus on me-I'm in no rush.
