Why does everyone *need* to get married & have children?

I don’t want to get married or have children. It’s like a cult. Marriage & children zombies everywhere. Completely self absorbed. I don’t want that for myself, that’s OK! You do you & I will do me!

I know several people who didn't go that route, myself included.

I think that's what they say about us freedom femmes. Because we love & enjoy the freedom to do stuff and have the extra $ for it as well.

All my friends who are married and have kids are not any happier.They all complain about their situations.I've never felt the need to define myself with a husband or children.So many people follow the script of finish school,get married,have kids etc but they're miserable.And the illusion that you'll live happily forever with one person for the rest of your life is a lie.When I see how unhappy my married friends are,I'm so grateful I don't have to deal with that.Yes,there are a few happily married people but that's so rare.

Maybe if I was old enough back in the 80's I would, but not now. I wouldn't want to bring kids into this mess of a world. Their minds would just get completely warped.

That’s just not the life I want.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that…

No ones forcing you. It’s a lot of responsibility for the real self absorbed people who rant against it. Go be a bar star and think about yourself then. Geez

I don’t need a husband or children

But I like being in love. I am better at life when I have someone to look after.

The most self-absorbed people I know are the single people without children. No one cares about hearing about craft beer from a 50 year old.
