I will say I’m at an age where some people who really want kids are grabbing partners like it’s last call and the lights are about to be flicked on in the bar.

Nope. Ever seen a bar at last call and people scrambling to find someone to go home with and you already know they’re gonna regret it in the morning?

you’ve made a decision inside and feel inner peace, while seeing others scramble? 🤔

maybe patience in the face of storm is the way to go

I feel like I made the decision when I was 22. I wanted the shot at love, someone to build a live with and be my partner. I love kids. I’m very maternal. I’d love to be a mom. I just don’t want to be a mom without having a partner who’s fully on board to parent too. If I have kids I want to give them an amazing father.

So no I’m not scrambling. I have had a moment or two of checking in with myself about my stance. It hasn’t changed. I know the years are dwindling and if I met someone, having kids would need to be on a more expedited timeline than I would’ve preferred. I’m also trying to find peace with the idea of my life not turning out like I envisioned it.
