Do you think I will regret not having children and never being married when I get older (regardless how old)?

Would you regret it?

Mind you, I'm a woman and don't have any nieces or nephews. Also, my mom is gone and my family is only growing smaller over the years.

My current boyfriend doesn't have children either and isn't keen on the idea of marriage.

Children don't fit well in my lifestyle, and I've never felt the desire to have any. I doubt that will change for me, but you're never too old to get married. Besides, that's really just a word. You can live your life with someone be perfectly happy and never get married.

@PrincessVelvet I like your answer. But, you may have a bigger family than me. I actually agree with your answer, although I'd like to get married one day, for some reason. It's difficult to put into words.

Do you have a big family? Sisters, brothers who might have kids? Cousins.. anything?
It is when you get older that you realize the importance of family. Right now you're young and probably busy. I'm 49 so I know. But I'm sure there are a few people who just don't want kids. And that's okay. Though there is something to be gained by nit having kids there is also a price to pay. @perceptivei

@Spoiledbrat I'm not busy. I simply can't afford them even if I get rid of all bad habits and extra spending.

Maybe someone should tell Biden's superiors before all logical people cease to exist.
