in Introduce Yourself
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 =)

    Lol no. I think everyone is different. Some people are happy by getting married/having kids younger, some older and some not at all. There's no right way to do anything since we are all different =) I'm 24 and not planning on having children till I'm around 29 or 30 (need to find a guy first though XD)

    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'm 50 and married 26 years without chillins. Dont know whose going to put me in the nursing home or pull the plug. Have lots of nieces and nephews however.

    I know what you mean. Its hard to find others socially in the same spot. Now most are the empty nesters!

    Yes thats weird. You should have kids.. Here you can have my teenagers and my husband, and I'll be 34 with no kids in your place to protect you from the weirdness.

    In all seriousness, you are not weird, there is nothing wrong with not having kids or getting married yet, or ever if you so choose.

    I'm 23, but I don't plan on getting married or having children in the future. I could use some childless people on my friends list too! I have nothing against anyone who wants to get married or have kids, many of them have been very supportive friends, but it would be nice to have some friends who lead a similar lifestyle!

    I saw this topic on my sidebar and thought it was about me for a second.

    I like being 27, not married, and no kids. If something happens in the future, it happens. but I'm happy with my life.

    27, never married and no kids, I don't even have an ex-fiancé which it seems everyone has these days! Don't sweat it, use the freedom you have to make last minute decisions and explore life without having to worry about what anyone else thinks about it!!

    30 and single here, no kids, and a cat. And there's nothing wrong with that! I hope to meet someone special one day but I'm not in a hurry. It needs to be right.

    I'm 31 and I don't have kids (unless dogs and a cat count)!! I am also on my second husband...which is kind of odd for someone my age. Basically, there is no 'normal', there is only 'right for you'. Feel free to add me too!

    I found MFP through a Parenting website. A lot of the mothers in my group joined.
    I gained a lot of weight with my youngest three..... I have friends that have not had kids of their own. Some have issues because of hormones, medications, or illness. We are all here for the same reason, to lose weight and get healthy.

    80+ pounds is an excelent weight loss. How much more do you plan on losing?

    29, unmarried and no kids. If I recall correctly, 27 is actually the average age for getting married, so no worries. Plus, studies have shown that marriages are less likely to end in divorce as the participants get older. I plan to get married, but probably won't have kids (don't want to pass the autism on).

    I thought 30 was the "scary age" for single women. Never thought anything unusual about 20-something singletons.

    Hi, I'm 66, have kids, grandkids and am married but at one time was also divorced (single) for 14 years. Enjoy it honey. Even though I am super happy with my life now I say - go out and have yourself a ball. Travel, expand your life, spoil yourself and do what you want to do. Some day if Mr/ Ms. Right - that does not mean Perfect - comes along then enjoy that. If not love yourself. Like the saying goes Life is a Journey - make it something YOU rejoice in.
