Are there other reasons for having kids besides falling in love and romance?

[Anonymous]

I still want to have kids but don't really care (never did) about the falling in love nor romance part. I don't lust for anyone either nor have any romantic attraction either. I don't mind having sex to have a child though and the kid still raised with a father.

I just there was someone like me, that would be ok raising a family without the need for romance (oh the moon and stars, bringing me flowers, too much passion, etc) nor frequent sex.

If a man were to tell me "listen I just want to be you to have kids, I don't love you in a romantic way.. it would be cool.

Aromantic asexual who want kids? interesting, yea of course there is other reasons for having kids, family legacy, love for kids, and in woman's case maternal instinct, I would rather be with woman who don't care about romance than be with woman who not want kid, having kids is more important in the end of the day, and for being a real woman.

I don't think that it be hard to find a man who don't care about romance, but it would be hard to find a man who don't care about sex, and having sex just to have a child is not enough for most men, so I am not sure was you mean by not frequent. Notice that chick flicks have a lot of romance and them.

Yeah I'm basically looking for my make counterpart, an aromantic, asexual man. He has to be somewhere out there.
I've always loved kids though and I'm very maternal. I still want the experience of getting pregnant, growing a little human inside me and the kid having both mom and dad.

You might find him, though it much easier to find a man who is aromantic than a man who is asexual. It good that you very maternal and that you not looking to be a single mom.

Yeah most men would likely demand sex 2-3 times a day at least. Every day of undressing myself and doing minutes of that would be too suffocating for me. It would be like getting forced to eat a food I don't like. It sucks to be on that hard position as a woman.
Some in my family confused me for a reserved, woman with morals waiting for the right man. Nope. It's rather looking for a man with my condition.

2-3 times a day is the average nowadays? yea it sounds quite a lot. It actually sucks more to be an asexual man, woman need only to undress, while man need to do all the work.

Yes there are a bunch of reasons to form a family without love and romance such as living a legacy as someone mentioned or for the simply reason of just having kids in a stable household.

Do the world a favor and NEVER have children.

What's wrong with searching for an aromantic, asexual man?
It's not my fault I'm not romantically nor sexually attracted to people. I still would like a child.

They are hard to find but I'm still searching. He has to be out there somewhere.
