Been trying for 6 years. Not desperately, but it would be nice. Thinking about getting chickens.

You're correct. I didn't mean that 40 was itself too old, only that there is a certain point at which they'll be too old for biological kids. No one is ever too old to find a new relationship though.

I'm in my 40s and I feel great being able to spend my time the way I want, and not have to worry about providing for kids. I've had time to develop new hobbies, read books, play games, and have a generally carefree lifestyle. I have friends who had kids, and kids have basically become their whole life. It's just not for me.

43 Male. I want kids but I am currently financially unsuitable. At some point though, I plan on it. I can appreciate being single and childless. I have done quite a bit of stuff, but, I have the urge to raise kids and have a family. It feels like there is a part of me not quite there.

47W. Never wanted kids. I don't miss it. I'm happy when I see my friends' kids but I really don't want one.

I have time for me and I couldn't afford raising one but again, I've never ever felt the need to be a parent.

No one has ever pressured me into having children. People knew I wasn't the the type even when I was a kid. They never questioned my choice not to get married either. So no peer pressure.

Ask again in a decade and some. Me and my gf really do not want kids

Hopefully no different from life now.
