Good for you!
If you feel good and are at peace, then stay on your current course.
I'm convinced lots of guys get married, have kids and "settle down" because ... it's what you do.
Doing something that important because " it's what you do" all but guarantees you'll be fuked in the long run.
The best path is a careful analysis of everything and THEN making an informed decision.
If that's living alone in a minimalist lifestyle or married w/kids, ok, fine.
Just don't fall backwards into something and wonder how you got there . 
You've been saying this shit and have been hung up on the kids issue for the past decade.
Many people make decisions because of popular action. And considering the survival of the human species depends on reproduction, it is going to be a popular decision, let alone the fact that sex and reproduction are biological urges!
The advice you give should be self-evident to teenagers with functional households and normal upbringings so long as they have half a brain and a tiny iota of agency.
At this point, I believe, though perhaps wrongfully so, your fixation on marriage and kids is a massive cope! Over and over through the years you've been talking about this. Occasionally you'll throw a bone to happily married men with children they love, by saying something like, "Oh, if that's good for them, then rock on!" and I assume that is an attempt to appear more even-keeled.
Not sorry, some of us were and are smart and responsible enough to know that marriage was and is for us and for the time being, have great marriages, kids we love, and great in-laws and much joy for all involved because of this familial situation. People like you show that you simply take
your needs,
your comfort,
your inconveniences to heart, while the rest of us put our hedonistic and lazy urges aside and realize inconvenience and burdens are to be absorbed by real men and this life consists of more than comfort, the fucking gym, food, and fun.
It reminds me of
some older MGTOW's (I say some because I can understand some reasons for going MGTOW) who attempt to heap their baggage on younger men and tell them how bad marriage is, throw divorce stats in their face, and say that
all women are whores, opportunists, and gold diggers. Although some, or maybe even many modern women are like that, there are plenty of us who obtained great wives and great in-laws.
And maybe, just maybe, many men should have done some goddamn proper screening and vetting before committing to the women they divorced! Of course some people change for the worse or become incompatible during a marriage, there are many men who didn't pay attention to serious warning signs : spending habits, bad behavior, drug habits, possibly untreated mental illness, nutcase in-laws, etc.
I've even had shit thrown my way online after expressing my love for and being dedicated to my family. Imagine that, a man being called a "beta" because he shares such feelings. But to me, possibly wrongfully so, this is just another manifestation of embittered people heaping their shit on others. Any respectable man would be justified in challenging a fair one (or maybe an unfair one) for such ludicrous insults for one's family.
