@Shadowbroker2135 I just came Home from one of the most frustrating Night Shifts of my Life and I want you to know:Fuck You.
-
lol. if i see 40...
-
@pyrate @gnarley_boot @Waldbrand If I get passed 40 with no family I'm going full shack inna woods.
-
No, you're not wrong to feel that guilt my friend. I fucked around a bit too and didn't take it more seriously.
-
@pyrate @gnarley_boot @Waldbrand Same, people kept saying "oh you have all the time in the world" in my 20s, then I got into a six year relationship with a woman who had no desire to have a family, and now I'm feeling a bit panicked that time is running short as 40 approaches.

@pyrate @Waldbrand Last year I went to the Ren-faire and there were a number of dads holding their sons on their shoulders. It never felt more over.

You guys could have it like me and have kids, start a family, give someone a chance only to have her turn on you six years later and tear up the family. Now my kids live far across town and I only see them 2-3 times a week and have to pay child support.
-
@gnarley_boot @pyrate @Waldbrand tbh I probably shouldn't have kids because I'm an irresponsible retard but at the same time I can't help feeling extremely guilty about being childless.
-
I saw one earlier today, young like me, and I felt so empty for a while.
-
@Waldbrand I'm sorry man, I just didn't want to suffer alone.
-
@Shadowbroker2135 I want to be a Dad so much.
-
@Verfassungsschmutz @pyrate @gnarley_boot @Shadowbroker2135 @Waldbrand A good woman inspires you to be better. I'd start with that before you worry about kids.
-
@gnarley_boot @pyrate @Shadowbroker2135 @Waldbrand How? And at my age? You got a time machine to let me go back to my childhood and make better choices with the knowledge I have now?
-
@Shadowbroker2135 @pyrate @gnarley_boot @Waldbrand I’m in the same boat but I don’t feel guilty because with my level of unresolved childhood trauma there’s no way I wouldn’t end up abusing my kids somehow, even if only unintentionally.
I can hardly manage the responsibility of looking after myself, I cannot imagine having to be responsible for others who are completely dependent on me. Sadly, not having kids at this point seems to be the best I can do to reduce the amount of child abuse in the world.

I don't mean to be rude but that stuff is totally fixable. Not a reason to be a genetic dead end.

@Bonsai @pyrate @gnarley_boot @Shadowbroker2135 @Waldbrand I have never met a good woman who wasn’t already married but if I did I would tell her to stay far away from me.
