![]() ![]() If having a child is a priority to you, really encourage you to look into options for fertility. I gave up on dating and I’m having a baby on my own this year. This seems totally unworkable to me unless they’re dating women 10 years younger than them. Some won’t decide that they want kids until they’re already in a committed relationship. I just got done reading a dating over 30 post where several men in their late 30’s were saying they’re open to having kids but they don’t want to be pressured by a woman’s timeline and want to date a long time to make sure they’re with the right person. I tried to date but it was too much pressure to find a partner to be a dad as my window to have kids was closing. But I really wanted to have children so that part was brutal. He was an addict and had a lot of problems so overall it was the right thing. So…for those that left long term relationships (especially where the sexual connection wasn’t great)…how have you found single life? Did there seem to be lots of options? Or did it seem like all “the good ones” were already taken? I know that there is no way to know for sure except to take the leap and find out…but what if I find out what I fear is correct? What if I find out I’m just “not sexy” to anyone long term?Īnd I know I know “what if I find out there are lots of great options and I find a more fulfilling life?” But other times I think “if both my long term relationships were duds when it came to sex maybe I’m the problem and no man will ever be interested in me sexually long term” Sometimes I think about leaving and think to myself “surely I can find someone I love and like and that I also can have a good sexual connection with”. And both of these relationships were lacking the sexual component I need. I really would like to be married/have kids but it feels like time is running out. ![]() I’m 37 now so the last time I was single more than a few months was my early/mid 20s. Prior to this I was in a 7 year relationship. I’m considering ending a long term relationship (4+ years). Do not try to play Rules Lawyer with the moderation team.
