^^^That is the truth, honestly. This is the shit I enjoy from slap
As for my confession. Crazy obsessive ex followed me on IG. Looked through her stuff and saw that her new guy and her had a kid. She's 22 and I don't want kids until I have a stable income and my own space. Really glad I dodged a bullet there.
There was a girl who I was sort of talking to but ultimately didn't for whatever reason, she wasn't obsessive or anything from what I could tell but I saw her on instagram also and she's married and has a kid, and she's also like 23 or 24. I'm 26 and not sure if I ever want kids let alone wanting to get married but that blows my mind that people so young are in such a rush to willingly give themselves a ton of responsibility. A friend of a friend got the craziest girl pregnant (not on purpose in this case), and for some reason he felt that the next step is to get married since they were having a kid. 6 months later they're getting a divorce... things like that make me really thankful for my girlfriend I have now, because she thinks a lot like I do. It was pretty ironic that when I started dating her was when I really wasn't looking for a relationship at all.
When I first started taking interest in girls, I had this mentality that I wanted a girlfriend but also wasn't against hooking up with other girls, not like at the same time, but I wasn't like against trying to be some player or something. Somewhere along the line I lost interest in trying to hook up with randoms, which is also why I do not and will not use an app like Tinder. If all you want to do is smash out then by all means, but personally I hate the effort of getting to know someone up to the point of just hooking up and being over it. I just want more return for my efforts I guess.
Crazy. It blows my mind how much people these days think they NEED to have children for society to accept them. They NEED to get married by a certain age and NEED to have children before 30 to be "normal". I dont believe in having kids. I don't want any, nor do I feel the need to add another human to this already overpopulated planet. My last ex (before the one I mentioned above but wasn't really my girlfriend) broke up with me because I didn't want kids and she did. I understood, and it was a mutual thing. I feel bad about it because she's an amazing human being. I mentioned I'd adopt if I ever wanted children, but she wanted her own.
I even got into an argument with my dad after we broke up because of the reasons for breaking up. Why is it so fucking hard for people to accept the fact that some people don't want to make babies? I was already a handful to raise so why would I want to raise a younger version of me?
Even adoption makes people question my sanity sometimes and they always end up saying "well, adopting is a lot more expensive". So what?
Either way I'm going to be broke as fuck with a child regardless if they are mine or not. There's plenty of children out there in the world without parents or a loving family. Why not save a life? It bums me out that so many humans have to follow American society and create more humans when there are thousands (not sure on the exact number here don't quote me on this) of children just wanting a loving family.
Sorry for the rant guys, I kept this in for a while.
