And that is a conclusion after skipping a few steps.

By no mean was I trying to tell you you do not deserve to be a mother.

Deserving it has nothing to do with this situation.

The struggle is real. For different reasons you may be in this situation.

Trust you can have what you want, not exactly the way you are seeking for.

The best thing you have in you now is the strong will of seeking for motherhood.

Commitment brings two parts, equally willing.

And of course I agree with nostr:npub1wtuh24gpuxjyvnmjwlvxzg8k0elhasagfmmgz0x8vp4ltcy8ples54e7js.

You certainly have what it takes to be a great mother.

That is sweet. I feel like I really shouldn’t have offered a personal anecdote after asking a general question. I feel like it confused the discussion. I emphatically was not asking if I should make a run on a sperm bank or have a short term relationship solely to get pregnant.

While I have been very open here about my desire to have a partner and children. I’ve never personally desired to have children without a partner. I always saw myself creating a nuclear family.

I’ve known women who had different viewpoints. Knew that if they hadn’t met “the one” by a certain age they were taking matters into their own hands. I will say anecdotally those women seem happier than the women I know who did the equivalent of grabbing a guy before the lights come on at the bar.

I personally don’t believe that the decisions I make for myself should be foisted upon others. I definitely don’t believe any religious beliefs I may have should factor into someone else childbearing decisions.
