And I don't want to have sex at all, let alone with an old person that went through menopause.
You are making excuses.

If you don't want kids, then don't have sex with someone who can become pregnant.

There are plenty of younger women who for medical reasons cannot reproduce.

If you have such an aversion to reproducing I think there could be an underlying mental health issue that you have. Because you have an irrational fear of reproducing.

I would be devastated.

I have a feeling the posters think I should just accept the fact if I had sex and became a dad. I also have a feeling the reason they never give a clear answer is because they realize I'm right and it might result in pregnancy if I had sex.

There is no foolproof way to prevent a pregnancy (other than abstinence). What's wrong with wanting to prevent something that would make me devastated?

The only reason I'm asking this is because you mentioned intimacy

And it's my sex life. If I don't want sex, why do the other posters want me to have sex? I'm content without sex, so why do the posters think I should change that?


I suggested it because you seem to have a highly irrational fear of getting someone pregnant. I appreciate that you are so cautious. I don't personally think you are ready for sex, judging from your posts here, of course.

I just thought a good counselor could help you. You seem to be really struggling over this issue, that's all.

You are right. You could get an infertile woman pregnant even if you'd had a vasectomy. The child would likely be worshipped as a diety, because the chances are probably higher that I'll win Powerball very soon. I don't actually play Powerball, btw.

Why are you so afraid of having kids?

But somehow I bet your still driving.

There's definitely something deeper going on here.
I actually don't drive. I've said before on this forum that I don't have a car anymore because my parents didn't let me take a car to college and I can't afford one.

And for your information, I caused a crash when I was 16.

Regardless, are you never going to drive again?

If thats the case, you dont have to worry about having sex ever or ever finding a girlfriend for that matter. Case closed.

Because they would ruin my life and they don't fit into the lifestyle I want. It's just a preference.

I hope to drive again. But driving is different. I'm willing to accept the risk.

If I died in a car crash, at least I would be dead so I wouldn't suffer.

If I had a baby, my life would be ruined for the next 18-22+ years

Or, he could move to NYC. Take the subway.

Why do you think this?

Did someone tell you that you ruined their life by being born?

Do you know someone who said this to their child?

I have 3 kids. They've made my life better. Not worse.

Not saying you'd be parent material right now. Just saying you should probably talk through your fears with a professional.

If you never want to be a parent, that's one thing. But, being so afraid of it that you refuse sexual intimacy in a love relationship is a MAJOR problem.

Ahhhh. Describe the lifestyle you want.

I'm not saying you should ever have kids. They're not for everyone.

Just indulge me.
