That's right, and that's probably appealing right now. Heck, I wish I was able to do certain things however I wanted too, but my wife recently left home with the kids to visit her parents in Alaska for two weeks, and after a day in an empty house I'm already missing them. They're loud, they're intrusive and they demand constant care, but there's not enough $4,000 guitars in the world that I'd trade for them. If you don't have kids, you will never, ever be able to understand the bond and enjoyment you get from your children. There's nothing to compare it to.
Never having to pay for dating, marriage, kids, college, divorce lawyer, alimony, and child support sure saves one a lot of money.

Because raising kids properly is the only way to fix it.

interesting. I knew it wouldn't be as serious as what I imagine happens with women, but figured it'd be more than the "meh" feeling I have now

Wife wanted kids. I was like "Well, I guess we wanted kids. now's as good of a time as any".
I was expecting to have some kind of revelation or wake up one morning with a real burning desire. All that happens was she went off birth control and we porked more often certain times of the month and then all of a sudden we have two car seats and a 7 seater Hyundai.

Kids certainly add a level of stress to your life.
But its manageable. I think.

No kids, originally I was purely "child free" crew, the wife and I have agreed that we will never have a baby but after our new house is built and we're settled we're going to look into adoption.
I have 9 nieces and nephews, she has 7, so there's very little worry about continuing our bloodline, her family has a history of truly horrific pregnancies that she'd rather avoid, and neither of us really enjoys being around infants or toddlers.
So we're looking at a 4-7yo since those ones tend to have a harder time being adopted since everyone wants babies.

God damn, I've had to watch one of my bros life destroyed by this cunt.
Talks him into having kids when he definitely wasn't ready because her clock was ticking.
Stops having sex with him because she's afraid of getting covid.
Takes kids and moves.
He leaves a great job to travel across the country and find a new job where she lives.
He pays 2 grand in insurance a month for her, gives her cash every week. She tries to get full custody. Basically only sees his kids on weekends.
Has the opportunity to work for the best sports ball team, which will change his life, isn't sure he can take the job due to travel because of the kids.
Ya, he gets his oxytosin from seeing his kids and they're great, but this dude's life is fucking over now, and his kids will be raised by a psychopath woman.

Planned on having a kid. But things/health changed with my wife. So that's not going to happen. We just spoil my niece and my friend's kids.
Deep down I regret not try/having earlier.... But I keep that buried inside me.

This is called being in a bad relationship. It has literally nothing to do with kids.
I'm 40 and wife is 36. No kids. I had a vasectomy about 8 years ago.

Anyone else in #nokids crew family like weirdly invested in them having kids that they jump on any possibility of it happening or just get pushy about it?
Like we told one of the SIL's about our plans on Father's Day and out of complete left field she asked "well what do you think about getting a surrogate since you want to avoid the pregnancy?"
When we said that we'd then have to deal with an infant and toddler she then broke out "Well I'll raise it for the first 4 years for you!"
Her poor husband just goes "DO I HAVE A SAY IN THIS?!" (they have 4 daughters)
She finally relented when we pointed out that rather than adding more kids to the world we'd like to help one in need already.

I've been lucky in that both my parents and in-laws don't mention it. I'm sure they would like grandkids but they have never pushed for it or even asked.
