I don't mean being afraid of looking geriatric...or falling apart physically and mentally..cuz that's gonna happen. I mean to be afraid that you need to rush because you aren't married you aren't happy where you are and you don't want kids..but you want love before you get to old!?
It's normal to be afraid of being alone, just don't let that fear control you. I truly think that the more desperate and seeking one is the harder it is to find love and companionship.
I don't know you or how old you are, and I can only speak for myself, but people waste too much of their single time seeking in my not so humble opinion. Of course I speak from my personal experience of wasted time in relationships and dating that was not worthwhile in the end, because I would have been better off working on myself and pursuing my own interests.
As far as kids are concerned I didn't want them when I was young, then I did for a while, but a bunch of shit when down, and now although I'm with someone who would love kids I feel I'm probably too old. One thing I won't do is talk a bunch of bullshit about how someday you'll change your mind, and want kids. I always hated it when people used to do that to me, and I think it's really shitty. I've lost touch with a very dear friend from my twenties and although I sometimes want to reach out to her haven't because I remember how she used to try to project her ideas about marriage and kids on me in our youth and I actively resent it. Sad, but true.
Yeah I suppose it is in your case. I would guess you have always been single and never experienced love. If so that's sad but it's not too late. Get out there!!
there is no reason to marry if you dont want kids , none whatsoever. getting married was so you would stay and raise the kid and nothing else. love and marriage have nothing in common. 90 percent of all marriages end in divorse not half like government says
Yes this is perfectly normal. You don't have to marry anyone, a marriage doesn't have to be unhappy and not everyone wants kids. Love doesn't require marriage. Marriage is more or less a legal declaration you should probably only consider when you're ready. Otherwise you can play it by ear, it's your life.
You aren't getting any younger. Hey, you don't gotta get married. Do whatever you want kid.
