27, never married and no kids?

I'm 27.5 and not married no kids.

And I hate it, because I want a family of my own. But my boyfriend needs to finish school first (his priority, not mine). I say we can do school and marriage, but he doesn't want to.

SO... IT's a long engagement and I just deal with it. Meanwhile all my friends are having kids and getting married, so in that aspect I'm the odd man out out of all my friends.

25, not married, no kids... I don't have the $$ or resources for a wedding or to support a child. Maybe someday?

Yeah...most women I know who had a "plan" to have kids before 30 ended up settling for guys they didnt even like that much and were divorced before 40 (and are currently single parents in the dating pool).

Biology is a *****.

30, never married, no kids. I travelled instead and have lived abroad from home for five years (going home next year, already decided). Decided to try having my own life before I did something that handed it over to someone else

Being a woman, the pressure is a lot higher - and after I turned 30 I suddenly felt like I'm no longer of 'marriageable age'. Rubbish, of course, but that's the cultural sexism we all enjoy daily.

32, not married (in a relationship thou) and no kids. 27 is no age to worry about these things. When we're young we spend more time with people getting to know them and things take time. I have progressed more in the last year with my new partner than I did with my ex in 9 and half years. It won't be long till we're married, kids and all that jazz. Things move quicker when you're older and know what you want.

I'm 26, and have never even been in a serious relationship, and never had a real kiss other than pecks haha. No kids (and don't want kids!). I think sometimes I want to be in a relationship, then quickly realize that I don't want to be haha.

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.

^This, but you get a 2 year old, a female teenager, and a 7 year old boy. Now, my husband is really handy, so that will be a bonus! Let me know!! lmao

30 here, no kids, never married. In a serious relationship, though. I'm a pretty happy person, I just wanted to spend my 20's being selfish and basically unattached! And it was awesome, I have no regrets.

Some people just make different choices along the way, so don't listen to anyone who tells you that the way you live your life is weird or wrong.

I have a cat, I'm 1/4 on my way to being an old cat lady lmao totally ok with that

Is it the cats or the age that makes you an old cat lady? Because if it's the age, I'm 1/4 of the way. If it's the number of cats, them I'm 3/4 of the way. LOL.

I guess to each his (or her) own...but I'm thinking having kids because you feel pressure from society or rushed into it because your 'clock" is ticking is way more selfish than those who choose not to have any so they can live a fun, carefree life.

I don't think it's selfish, it's just one of those things where you have a limited amount of time to do something. And the sad reality is if you ever think you might want to have children, by 30 you better be making those plans because most women's fertility declines greatly between 30 and 40.

By age 35 your chances of conceiving per month are cut in half.

I heard an article a while ago that lots of women are being lulled into a false sense of hope by the much publicized cases of women who have babies much later in life. What they don't realize is that this is often the result of spending a lot of money and that they happen very rarely.

Women get the short end of the biological stick.
