Everything is in out mindset. Getting pair or being anything is fine as long as we are happy.
Never selfish to get what you want. I married and we don’t want kids. Just enjoying life.
Being selfish is a great thing in some aspects of life.
Nope. How is it selfish?
I've been reading several articles (I should have linked them; I will in the update), that apparently people that refuse to settle or get married are "selfish and self absorbed." Because they only think of themselves and their happiness, rather than wanting to be with someone else
I find that to be nonsense. It’s selfish to want your own happiness, but it’s not selfish to think it’s ok for someone to sacrifice their happiness for someone else? I never understood such “logic”
Exactly! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with some sense on the internet.
It just baffles me there are people out there that think it's selfish to be single because others aren't happy with their little lives.
How about mind your own business? If someone is happy: be it single, married... whatever, leave them be instead of judging their life!
Exactly! Hell I’ve been called selfish for even not wanting kids. How? If anything, I’m freeing up spaces at college so your dumbass kids can get in. You’re welcome. Lol. But yeah the whole concept is asinine from the get go.
Oh don't get me started on kids. I swear I'm going to ask a question about that next, because you're the third person to mention that on this question!
Why is it so bad for women to chose NOT to have children? Just because I have the capability to reproduce doesn't mean I want to, nor am I obligated to by society standards. Yet people have given me these looks of disgust and disbelief when I tell them I won't have kids. Or I hear the classic, "you'll change your mind when you meet the right guy." Sigh.
The ignorance of society baffles me sometimes.
Oh god yeah. It took me months to find a doctor willing to do a partial hysterectomy. I had the money to pay it in full but There was always some excuse.
Oh you’ll regret it later!
What does your husband think/want?
Why don’t you have some kids first?
You’ll change your mind!
Come back when you’re married with a few kids
Even when I lied through my teeth and said I was a lesbian, one told me I still needed to get married and have some kids before they could do it, which is a fucking lie. Thankfully it’s done now and guess what? No regrets.
That's a damn shame, but I believe it.
I work in a hospital and ask me how hard I've been trying to find a loophole, or a physician willing to give me a tubal ligation? NOT ONE. It's always the same thing: they require you to have had at least one child first, or a medical condition that deems it a necessity. Otherwise they don't want women to have that procedure in case you decide later on you want kids
...
Even though I have the money and will happily pay out of pocket for the procedure, with or without insurance. Yet a man can walk into a clinic today, get a vasectomy the same day, and no one questions him. That is what ticks me off.
Exactly! And there’s no legal reason they can’t do it. Like bitch, if I regret it one day, then that’s on me. If I want kids one day, I’ll adopt one. They’re just assholes that want women to stick to their biological “roles”.
It's not selfish. No. It's your choice. You're not harming anyone.
What? Never... it's not your life... don't get screwed by emotional impulses...
Not selfish at all, but if you end up hanging out or talking to someone who doesn’t want a relationship it can be hurtful af. We weren’t even together but after 1 year he had enough and ended it…
Its actually not selfish, i guess people who remain single are either strong or some kind of psychos
I think it makes a Girl unattractive if She decides this.
What about men that decide to stay single- what are your thoughts on that? As there are men out there that choose to be that way as well.
I don't know I have never heard of a Guy, I just hear about Women who say they have decided this.
It isn't selfish, but it is self destructive. Unless you are a psychopath. Than a relationship will only get in the way of achieving your goals.
So, you plan to just have sex with a male , no strings attached.
Nope, I don't sleep around or have sex with someone unless I'm in a relationship with them. So at the moment I'm not having sex- and fine living that way.
I never understood why a man would want to get married nowadays. Risking half your money and possessions just to comply with social norms and fit in is crazy. It’s selfish to expect that of someone
I have found staying single me and you don't get hurt.
Not selfish but i would say not healthy
Oh, how is it unhealthy?
You will always feel there is something missing, because that's how it's meant to be a man and a woman
Yeah being single is best tbf
Not selfish! It's your life
It is not selfish. You get to choose not others.
is is very selfish and if you want to know why, go on youtube and search up jordan peterson and watch every video you can find
everyone is entitled to live their life as they want
Do you force someone to have a reltionshi or stay single? Same for you then
No problem at all. Why follow the croud in everything?
I don't think it is unless you lead someone one
It is not in a guys interest to ever be in a relationship with a girl. Sex but not commitment
It's not selfish at all. Why would it be?
No, It is a personal choice.
No. This is not become selfish.
No not selfish at all why would it be selfish
No. You don't have to
It is your life live it the way you like
No it's not selfish. It's preference.
in my opinion it'll just make life less fun.
where's the law that states you must?
No not selfish
It's your choice.
Very
