I have been posting here since the beginning, but I wish I wasn't. Chat Icon I hope no one is offended by that, I don't mean it bad to anyone who doesn't have a child, but I want one and it's just not happening for us.

By choice...I think.


I don't know if I'd be open to it with anyone else. Only time will tell.

Not by choice but I have to say...

"meeting" all the ladies here has helped me accept my situation a little better. I know that being childless (for whatever reason) doesn't have to be the bad thing I thought it would be. Thank you all for helping me understand that and feel more comfortable about my situation.

And we are still trying...just being realistic about it!

I feel like it's by default, so not a choice.

Re: Can i ask who is here by Choice and not by Choice?

By choice...I tried to force myself to feel differently for years- and it just never came naturally for me- the wanting of children.
I am finally coming to terms with that fact that it doesn't mean there is something mentally wrong with me- and that others share my feelings on the matter as well!

This is me too...for years I told myself that my feelings would change and that my clock would start ticking, but it never has.

Re: Can i ask who is here by Choice and not by Choice?

I think another poster put it best for my situation, somewhat by default, not by choice. Never met the right person when I was younger, met my now DH in my mid 30's. He didn't want children because he suffers from a chronic health condition (not life-threatening but very uncomfortable and difficult for him to live with daily) and he did not want to risk passing it on. By that point I decided being childless with the right person was more important than having children with the wrong person. After we married he did have a change of heart and we rolled the dice for about a year, but by then I was in my mid 40's, it wasn't meant to be, and so here we are.
