Am I doing the right thing?

[TheLightningRick]

So for context, I am almost 23 years old I am still a virgin and have never kissed or dated anyone. But I want to focus on myself and being prepared to date first. I started my own company and am in between jobs. And just feel as though I should focus on the grind instead of having a sexual life. I feel no need to lose my virginity and feel as though that it’s pointless to be in a relationship because it feels useless to be in one I don’t feel like I have a connection to anyone or anything I feel like I need to follow the grind till I drop and it feels like a relationship would hold me back from achieving my goals and aspirations my Dad and Mom keep on telling me that I better have grandchildren otherwise their legacy won’t be continued on but I don’t want kids and having a girlfriend leads to having kids and I don’t want that I want to change the world and my legacy to die with me

It is your life and you do with it whatever suits you best. Don't get pressured into getting married or having children just for the sake of your parents' wish. That is how disasters happen.

I fully endorse your thinking and I believe that it is right to be professionally established and to have completed your education before attempting to get involved with women and to be in a relationship.

I do abide by the same ideal and my education has top priority over anything else besides my health of course.

Once you have achieved what your life goals are, then it will be time to settle with a companion for life. Good luck.

Thank you. I wasn’t sure if I was doing the right thing because they’ve been trying to guilt trip me into having kids and to tell the truth I feel as though bringing a kid into this world would not be a good idea because of what’s going on around us

That makes 2 of us. Whatever you do, it is your decision alone and while having grandchildren for your parents is nice, they will not have to live their lives. Take it easy and also, take the time to explain your point of view to your parents. It is important that you prioritize your life first even if it hurts the feelings of your parents.

You are young. So take your time! I am facing the same issue but I told my parents to let me live my life " respectfully ". Focus on yourself first! I like your values. Much respect!

[Somoneelse]

Don't worry too much about it. It's your life and you should live your life as how you want it. Respect for already having your own company! Your goals, ambitions and company are much more important than the desire of your parents to have grandchildren (against you will). Keep on grinding brother! 🔥💪

[Somoneelse]

I feel the same as you. I have zero desire to have children. I rather pursue my goals, dreams and explore the world.

I think you need to put some punctuation in your writing. That’s a dozen sentences and just one full stop and comma. That should be your priority right now.

[Nikki1989]

Life is what you make of it. If that is the kind of life you want, it is your call.

[Iron_Man]

That’s not true about their legacy won’t be carried on not everybody has children what they’ve done in life has already been written. Just wait until you get married, then have sex

there r girls out there who don't want kids

[TheLightningRick]

Yeah, I know I just have no interest in any of it the only thing that interests me is making this world a better place one step at a time

respect
