I wouldn't say it's selfish, you just want to be totally ready for it to happen. which is a good thing.
I'm at a point where I have a good job, low expenses, and it's a bummer at times to be still single, and not meeting quality men.
I think you might of misunderstood the post. I was saying I never want kids. I think I could probably afford a kid someday, but like I said, I would be unwilling to make the financial sacrifices.
You said you keep meeting men that don't want kids, so I'm just giving you some insight on why men don't want kids.
ok, sorry I missed that. It's every one's right to feel how they want. Some people want kids, some don't. I just wish the men that didn't want any weren't attracted to me!

It's also a matter of making sacrifices. I can't afford any kids right now. At all. No way.
But I think someday I would be able to afford a kid.
However, I would need to make sacrifices in other areas that I'm not willing to make.
Call me selfish, but at least I'm determined and I know what I want.
I want to live the richest lifestyle I can afford, and I don't want any kid(s) to get in the way of that.
I'm not in any way dogging you for feeling that kids are not your thing. But it bears mentioning that you don't know what sacrifices you will be willing to make in the future, regardless of what is most important to you today. Your priorities can totally change as you grow up...and most people's do. And they may not, on this front. But the point is, you don't really know what's going to be most important to you in the distant future, until that future is here. You can guess, but what turns out to be reality can differ entirely from what you expect as a teen.
They are perfectly normal adults who have the experience and self knowledge that having children is not for them.
I have no problem whatsoever with people choosing that option.
You have no experience in life, you have never been in love, never had a committed relationship and never left home.
Sorry kiddo, you have nothing to base any life long decisions on.
Respectfully, I knew I did not wanted to have kids by age 6. While my sisters were playing house, I was playing meccanos (like legos). No interest in dolls or babies EVER.

I always knew i did not want to become a mother.
I knew pretty young too. Matter of fact when I was a kid I prefered to be around the adults, I didn't like being around kids, even when I was a kid. I remember kids being so damn mean. Just nasty little buggers. LOL
Its weird cause as an adult, I actually don't mind kids at all, assuming they're well mannered and polite.
Here in SF, you can't find any women who want them...
Apparently is a deal breaker in DC too.
