You shouldn't EVER get them, realistically. People should mind their own effin business.

While it may be messed up, I am now in the habit of telling anyone who has an opinion on what I should do with my ovaries to mind their own business, because I am going to live my life the way I see fit.
You can adopt.

No thank God because I put enough pressure on myself. I am really starting to think that I just need to face the fact that it will happens when it happens. The of course the down side of that is it may never happen. Then that is how the cookie crumbles

I'm sorry but I hate when I get this response also.

My not wanting kids has nothing to do with my age at this point. It is an answer I give to my family as an excuse, however.

I don't want them because chances are I would make a terrible mother. I'm pretty sure I have ADD, I would probably be one of those mothers who loses her child in a mall. I have finally reached a point in my life where I am content with everything, and I don't see or feel in any way how having kids would enhance my life. If anything, they would only complicate it. I have no maternal instinct and do not go all gaga over babies when I see them.

I can only hope you don't tell people that they can adopt when they say they don't want kids. It's a very condescending comment.
