Always amazed by the fact that telling people to get married and have children seems to illicit this emotional response where some go “no, it’s not right for everyone”.

Actually, it is.

This isn’t like being interested in pickleball, this is the core of human existence.

Survive and reproduce.

It’s not a lifestyle decision.

And if you think it is you’re severely brainwashed.

It’s time to delete that bit of malware in your mind.

I agree with you and disagree. My fiance doesn’t want children. I am indifferent. And what I’ll say is - if you want to see things improve. Fewer people having kids is a net positive. Think of it like one step back to take two steps forward, if we don’t eff it up before then.

Sounds weird to apply to reproduction - but we desperately need to take a step back and rediscover ourselves.

So don’t be mean to those that are just here temporarily. Just let em be. Just focus on laying the groundwork for others to not repeat our mistakes.

Dump her immediately

There is no better way to “discover yourself” than to have kids. Trust me! I am on this journey. You are on the crossroads. Choose someone who doesn’t doesn’t seek the nihilistic self-seeking path of no kids

Your life does not belong to you. You are the latest link in a chain forged over millennia by the suffering of your ancestors. You don’t have the right to be “indifferent” to forging a new link in that chain. You have an obligation to everyone that came before you, who suffered to put you here, to put a new link in that eternal braid leading back to prehistory. Don’t be an idiot, this woman is bringing a final death of total obliteration to your family lineage. She was made fo da streets.

The blockchain of humanity. Totally agree. Think of all the sacrifices it took to bring your life into existence. To end that unbroken chain because you like sitting around playing video games and smoking weed is just… meaningless is an understatement.

We see things a little differently.

I believe in something else that I can’t explain. But I respectfully disagree. Maybe something will change in the future. But I’m happy and confident with where my feet and mind are now. Wishing you and your family the best.
