I spent 19 years taking care of and raising two boys and i am sort of over that at this point, just over a year ago i got a vasectomy .

I don't want to end up alone for the rest of my life but i haven't dated in a nearly a decade so i could use some advice.
How would you best bring up the point of not wanting kids
Mod cut.

..just keep doing what you are doing. Be honest. Sooner or later you will find someone who also doesn't want kids.

Just add 10 years to your age preference and you’ll be just fine.

Child abuse story put it behind me nothing note worthy .
Trusted a teacher at school I had no business trusting.
For what's it worth I was 14 actually I'm turning 33 in a few days.

I would say that having become a teen single father in the wake of molestation and aftermath of that is a whole other can of worms that could complicate future relationships.

Did a lot of therapy as a kid and teen. I have given it a place in my life and it definitely helps that she is no longer with us.

It helps that my parents made me stay with my uncle for the first year here in Belgium .
