I think they're only mistakes if you make them just because you think you are supposed to, like many of the sheep do.
I never wanted to get married, and never wanted to have kids.
I met a girl 7 years ago that I just liked being around more often than not, so I married her. I don't see myself
not wanting to be with her. Of course everyone always wants to fuck other chicks, that never changes, but
I got sick of wasting time trying to fuck everyone and I got really sick of worrying about STD's or knocking up some
slutbag that I barely knew. It's a compromise, some just don't want to make it.
I don't think being single forever is wrong either, I just decided it wasn't for me anymore.
I still don't want kids, and I made sure my wife didn't either before committing to her. That is one of the biggest mistakes
anyone can make. I always ask people why they want kids, and no one can give me a straight answer.
Men that really want kids have always seemed really strange to me. I laugh inside every time people ask me if I am having
kids or suggest that I have kids, and tell me all the bullshit 'joys' that children bring them. I can see right through it,
as if they want other people to share in the misery of raising children.
I am especially bothered by people that need to have children in order to grow up and become responsible.
I know plenty
of assholes that used to kick doors in and beat people up, deal drugs, and all kinds of other shit, but stopped now that
they have 'something to live for'. Fucking lame
LOL @ the passing on 'your name' or 'your legacy'. No one leaves a legacy. The most important people in the world are
eventually forgotten.
sadly, this bullshit post is all that is wrong with a lot people today. Never thanked your dad for popping one?
Anyways, I believe it was Sidney Poitier that had said that being a father was one of the hardest jobs. Are you up for the task?
I think that parents today don't know how to raise their kids because they had poor role models---parents that were bad parents, and that we don't pick good partners.
Of course having kids is passing your genes along...
And of course, your sex drive is purposely put there so that you'd mate and have kids. That is the purpose of sex. That damn good feeling is secondary...
And I think young women who get married and don't want kids are weird---they must have some deep rooted issues going on...
Or, they don't think that the guy they married truly is capable of being a good father, ie, a fuck up.
People of today's society are too damn cynical for their own good. Are you telling me that your folks never enjoyed your accomplishments as child? Your first steps, your first words? You getting an A on a test? You giong to Homecoming or Prom? Sure, there were a lot of trials between that, but when a father sees his son grow into a man that he can be proud of, it's a good feeling.
