NO kids and 37

39 here with no kids. People always look at me cross-eyed when they find out that I don't. lol Am married (2nd marriage of which happened later in life). You can add me if ya like!!

We've been trying for 5 years, no luck. Possibly going to try clomid in February, but if it doesn't work then our efforts will halt in June, when I'll be 37.

Hey! Feel free to add me :-)

I am married...but I am 37 with no kids. I am never having them (out of choice) and I do feel your pain re: friendships

I actually find it harder being married without kids than I have at times when I was single. I tend to prefer having girlfriends that I hang out with and then hanging out with my husband, but I've never been much for hanging out with other married couples on double dates and such. It is way too hard to match up interests and personalities of FOUR people in my opinion!

Not that we're gonna be "hanging out" on MFP - haha

But yeah..I have found that a lot of women really don't "get it" when a woman their age doesn't have kids and they seem at a loss for things to discuss. Fortunately I do have tons of friends with kids who DO "get it" and we never run out of common interests, but I always wish I had more childfree by choice or childless friends my age. The worst for me is growing close to younger friends who are in the pre-motherhood stage and once they have kids, I hardly ever see or speak to them :-/

Good luck!!

I don't have children but I would love to have them.:) Got married later in life. I'm doing IVF in the new year but need to lose weight as my BMI is effecting my efforts. Its a catch 22 ,the more I got stressed the more I ate.
I have my embros literally waiting for me. Found out my hormones are out of wack and its affected my uterine lining so was not able to do transfer... I'm not looking for a pity party. I just started MFP and I'm so motivated to do this for me! Regardless of what happens...I no longer want to be unhappy because of the weight gain. I know in the end God has a plan and it will work out the way it is suppose to ( took a long time to get to this place) But, I am NOT going to wallow and continue to be fat. I really want this weight lost so bad!! I got married 2 weeks before my 38th birthday for the first time.. It will happen for you. Don't settle. Keep your heart open, stay positive and he will come.:) I would very much like to be friends. I was single for a long time.. I so get it!!!:)

I'm older (53) and also no kids. I'm a great auntie and never needed more, but I also have PCOS so I feel your pain on that one. I got married at 42 (1st for both of us).

Feel free to add me for support! PCOS means the weight comes off slower and takes more effort, but it can be done.

The old (pre 1990 or so) logic dictated that most people were married and/or had babies by age 30. Not so today. It isn't abnormal to not have kids at 37.

As a man, my perspective is slightly different than a woman's would be.

I think the key is find others in the same place, which is easier now than ever, especially if you live in a major metropolitan area. In my city, there are tons of Meetup groups with women in their 30s/40s who are childless.

However, there are circumstances for me as never having been married and no kids where I am made to feel out of place. I avoid those situations as much as possible.

Add me 31 married no kids and no desire to have them. I am very sorry you can not though. I will be your friend and help you out

Friend me... 37, no kids and out there dating like a champ. I am constantly begging friends to go out b/c they are married or with kids they can't. It is hard making friends at this age anyway, but take away the fact you don't have the "kid factor", there is less in common with these women than 10 yearsa go.
Friend me!

Hey! I'm only 20, so I know we've got a couple years between us. but I have PCOS too! And on top of that another medical condition that takes that small chance of having kids and makes it virtually zero.

I totally know how hard weight loss is with PCOS! Feel free to add me

Edit: haha in noting my chances of kids, I thought I should probably also note that I wasn't really looking to have any anyways... especially anytime soon xD

I'm a 37 year old husband, and we don't have kids...perhaps someday. I'm trying to meet nice & fun people on here to pass the time while I try to loose weight. I've also had difficulty meeting friends out in the real world to work out with, but I enjoy doing spin to work out in a group setting. It's good to have nice connections with some of the people on this site, so if you're looking for another good MPF friend, feel free to add me...
