Question:
Is it normal to never want to be in a relationship?
2016-01-16 15:01:53 UTC
I am 20, a female, and never want to be in a relationship with anyone, never want to marry, never want a child, and I don't care for sex. I'm a virgin and I don't mind staying that way for life.

I'm just not interested and I hate it when my mum or someone says "I can't wait for my grandchildren in future"...no.

No it's normal I think! Everyone is different and it's just the way some people are! I don't feel like I want a relationship because it seems all good at first but relationships sometimes get worse as they go along! And I have been hurt that many times by guys that I don't even want a relationship I can't deal with the heartache anymore! Maybe one day I will find the right one and maybe you will and you may change your opinion and want a relationship ! But I think it's perfectly normal to want to be single :)

At age 20? Yes it's normal. I'm sure those of us who either have been single for so long or have experienced heart break come to a point where they say "I don't want to be in a relationship" And that's fine, but never say never because life changes and we change as well, humans where not meant to be alone so if not being alone to you means having a pet or surrounded by friends thn that's fine but to majority a relationship, if done right is, is what fills that hole. I myself had convinced myself I didn't ever want to be in a relationship but now at late 19s I'm being to want to love again. It's normal but it may not last unless if you are really stubborn and live with a hard and close heart, but who wants to live like that. Love is an open door ( frozen) lol

You may think it isn't normal because we are seduced by advertising and influenced by the media that flaunts relationships and sex. The world makes it seem that you should be loose and carefree to have relationship after relationship or friends with benefits. But you actually have a very wise attitude. Most relationships end up toying with sexual immorality and is not something to be taken lightly. (2 Corinthians 7:1) Many relationships can suffer emotional harm. If you are not ready to pursue a relationship that could lead to marriage then you need to set boundaries. Friendships should be just that—friendships and nothing more. (Ecclesiastes 11:10; Colossians 3:5) Enjoy your youth. One way to do that is to study God's Word the Bible and get a close relationship with God. Open up to the best way of life.—(1 Timothy 4:7-9) Your young and your feelings may change later in life. In the meantime, if bored you can overcome boredom and obtain a meaningful life. The heart is full of nagging doubts as to the whys and wherefores of life. Heartfelt conviction that one’s personal life has meaning is needed. Yet, how can anyone face life with a positive outlook without knowing why he is here, without having goals, without having well-founded hopes for the future?

Here is where the ultimate questions arise: What’s the meaning of life? What am I here for? Where am I going? “The striving to find a meaning in one’s life is the primary motivational force in man,” observed Dr. Viktor Frankl. However, where can such a meaning be found? Where can these questions be satisfactorily answered? The Bible is a sure guide toward a meaningful life. From beginning to end, it makes a point of showing that God gave man work to do. Man was to care for the earth, to beautify it, to exercise loving oversight of animal life, and, above all, to praise the Creator, Jehovah. Quite some task, one which would not leave room for boredom. Learning about God and supporting God’s cause, being dedicated and fully devoted to him, adds meaning to life and crowds out boredom. (John 17:3)

Relationship is defined as the way two people feel and behave towards each other . It can be a sexual or romantic friendship . At the age of 20 you may not be in a position to understand such intricate things . The fact that you are a virgin goes to prove that you are a quite reserved and a quite girl .With the passage of time you will understand that remaining single is not practical and not the ideal thing to do .Have a broad look at the society .You will notice how happy some marred couples are .Although some are misserable which is an exception to the rule . You will understand the joy of motherhood once you reach that stage . You have your own biological needs to be satisfied . Such things cannot be suppressed for ever . Any attempt to do so is somewhat abnormal compared to what is generally accepted in society . Take your mother's advice and make her happy by giving her a chance to enjoy her grand children .It is your obligation towards your parents .

FIRST AND FOREMOST: YOU ARE NORMAL. YOU ARE NORMAL

Just because you do not wish a relationship right now in your life does not make you weird or abnormal.



When most guys were dating and having sex in High School all I wanted to do was hand out with friends, get out of school, and do sports. At that time I thought that maybe I was weird. A guy, that had plenty of options, but just did not feel the need to breed, if you will forgive me.



My parents put no pressure on me, and I had a good band of buddies that did not pressure me either. I also was not into the pot stuff, and my buddies supported me there.



Then one day I met a young girl. She was like no other. We became friends, and then started dating. We dated for just over 4 years then got married. That was in 1981, and we are still married. I do not search for others, I do not go Tom Cattin around.



I tell you this because where you are in life it is OK the choice you have made. you are 20, a lot ahead of you. If you had sex for no reason, then had a child, then what? That can alter your life. I applaud you for your desire to not enter into a meaningless relationship, that most likely would end, and end badly.



When your mother brings it up, tell her you have not met the right person, and she taught you better. That you respect yourself. You can also then gently break it to her that you are happy with yourself, and right now that is good and working for you.



If she is a good mother, she will understand and support you. If not, well just you keep happy and honorable to yourself.

Of course it's normal I felt exactly the same way when I was 20. I didn't want to be in a relationship with anyone. But I met this incredible guy who I only want to be in a relationship with. I'm 27 now and I changed my mind. You are still very young you might change your mind. Who knows there's might be a guy who will sweep off your feet.

I'm 23 from the Philippines. At some point in our life, it is. You see we live in a generation wherein sex comes first before marriage, divorce is at increasing rate and you get judge whether you do something good or bad. Isn't that frustrating? Well, as a child born out of wed-luck things can get even worst. I've always got confused with the concept of love and relationship. I grew up hearing stories of how sweet my parents were and how my mom cooks good homie foods for my dad and they pretty much had a fairytale kind of love story. But where are they right now? In separate ways. Just like you, I never wanted to be in a relationship because from where I grew up I didn't even got the proper explanation of what that is. Just like you, I don't want to have children because I'm really worried they would turn out like me, attending our Family Day alone.. Yes, ALONE. Just like you, I also don't want to get married and eventually signing the papers for divorce. To answer your question yes, it is normal to never want to be in a relationship and your not alone. I'm here.

I think that it perfectly fine, I have done the whole marrige thing, affairs, kinky sex and have a beautiful daughter but the only thing that make me happy is having my little girl. I am seperated and been single for more than a year and I really have no rush to get into a relationship. However my sis (at one point) said that she doesn't want marrige or children even though she was in a ten year realationship, that changed now she is married and tried for a kid but no joy. Your mind might change but if you are happy the way you are then so be it, your only 20 so who cares about getting involved in a serious relatonship when you don't need to, have fun! Enjoy your life the rest will come if and when you want it, if not then who cares your happy. Or will you be if you leave it too late?

There's really nothing wrong with what you're feeling. When I was 20, I swore I would never be in a relationship or get married. Of course, I caved. Chances are, you will too one day, but it doesn't have to be now. You can wait, and if you prefer life in solitude that is your choice, as it should be. Still, having a relationship does not necessarily require you to have sex with that person. You can have relationships with people (male and female) that are platonic and friendships.

This is a great question and I have a great deal to say about it.



I am a 21-year-old boy and I always preferred being on my own. I must confess that I abandoned my virginity because of the society which blames you if you do something different ....if you are different.

Today, after two years, I regret for losing my virginity in that easy way.



I have never been in a loving and healthy relationship. As someone has already said on here, I built a relationship but it was not a relationship. She was manipulative and she felt my weakness and was taking advantage of it more and more. Yet, I needed love and she knew it and I fell in love in spite of everything, in spite of the fact I did know she did not love me, truly. I did know she just wanted my money and I suspected a lot she had another boyfriend. Still, I was deeply in love with her. I loved her to bits. I have never had any friends and my parents got divorced a few years ago and maybe unconsciously that troubled me ....for life.



When I broke up with this girl, I felt a big hole inside of me. A big hole that I have always been scared of feeling. Perhaps, it is because I did not want to face the truth - I have got a different life from that of my other peers and I am deeply alone.

I felt I could not deal with the heartache and I felt so even more sad. That is when I wondered how come I was so sad for having been in a relationship unless my past. I have just got out of my first relationship and I should be happy since it changed my life. Then, I realised it would have been better if I had been alone.

Before losing my virginity I could not care less about being alone. It was not due to my immaturity [actually, I have always been told to be more grown up, psychologically speaking], but because I thought relationships are all good at first but then they got worse as they go along. If you think about it, that is totally true. Every relationship is that way.

Moreover, I have got social anxiety so it is even more difficult to have a relationship for me. That is one more reason to be alone.



Nowadays, after the break-up and the sufferance, I got back to be who I was.

I prefer to be alone and live on my own. I do know I will not be able to deal with another heartache and I do not know whether I will be ever able to have another relationship.



I am better off alone, without a partner or friends. I do not care about marriage [which most of the times leads to divorce, waste of money and children]. Hence, I am not giving up on love - it is just that I do not care a damn about it. That is it.

I don't think it's normal but it's your life, what the heck, do what you want.



But just to let you know, how can you say "I don't mind staying this way for life" since you've never even tried all those things? What are you comparing these to anyways? I'm just curious.



Not wanting to be in a relationship and being scared of being in one are completely different things after all!
2016-01-19 15:24:17 UTC
This is called being asexual. Not being attracted to people romantically or sexually. It's perfectly normal and common. To all those people saying it's just because you are scared of being rejected that's bull. Some people just don't have those desires and that is perfectly fine and if you are asexual then there is nothing you can do to want those things but you shouldn't have to. You don't need to force yourself to be in a romantic or sexual relationship and friend and family relationships are completely different from that so yes it is normal. Try researching asexual a bit

It's very normal. You enjoy your own company and that's a beautiful thing. You have people out here in the world that can't be by themselves for the life of them. They are in constant need of someone making them feel "happy." But happiness comes from within. But when that right person comes along he/she will only add to your happiness. Until then, there is nothing wrong not being in a relationship and don't believe people that tell you that there is something wrong with that.

I think deep down, you already feel it's not normal because of the way you have been raised. That doesn't mean you're wrong or weird because you think different though... After all, what's normal anymore? You are FINE!! I look at it like this... God has a plan for each one of us - good & bad. We may not understand why things happen the way they do, but trust that he knows best. Just be who you want to be and be happy.

Well, aside from having kids, I'm right there with you. I do want a family someday, but I don't really care to go through all the drama/work/ridiculous hoops to find a girlfriend. I realize that someone isn't going to just drop out of the sky, but it seems to me that the woman I'm looking for also doesn't care for all the crazy dating stuff. Yes, I'm still a virgin, but to be honest I don't give it much thought. I care too much about having a positive impact in this world to be distracted by the idiocy that is dating.

It's normal since you're only 20. Your opinion however will most likely change as years go by even if you don't think it will. It's good though! Enjoy being young and do what your heart desires. Many of us get interrupted and miss out on young life because we get into relationships too early and many of us don't do things we would like to do because we don't want to lose the person we love in our relationship by doing more crazy things which wont always include your partner. Sure you can live your young life with your partner and have fun but it's going to always be more fun without one since you don't have to worry about anything but just YOURSELF, so you can really enjoy your young life to its fullest!

2016-01-16 15:10:14 UTC
You're probably asexual. You should still build relationships even if they're not "relationships". You'll feel better in the end. There will, I guarantee you, be a time in your life when you're feeling really lonely. That's what relationships are for. Don't be afraid. It can be scary to put that much trust into another human being, especially if you have social anxiety like me, but if/when you finally do it you will be okay. You'll feel better. Less. . . alone.

What is this 'normal'? It's not wrong. If that is how you feel, then that's fine. You don't need to care about whether it's 'normal' or not. Just do what you feel like doing, as long as you're not hurting others, obviously. There are other people who are not interested in relationships either. That is fine.

Oh you're so young, this not just normal but best. Live, have fun, enjoy life. Don't worry about that stuff now. I never wanted a husband or kids. Now I'm married with children and I'm not sure how my life was ever complete without them.

2016-01-17 01:34:59 UTC
Marriage is not for everyone. It's not a bad thing, just a fact. Evidently, you have other priorities and wish to fulfill them.Evidently what is common doesn't interest you. Your mum speculates you'll decide on children and a husband someday and she may or may not be right, but ultimately the decision is yours to make. Personally, I think it's wonderful you have other ideas of how you wish to live life. You can have a ball with no one holding you back, congratulations! Good luck👍

I don`t think it`s normal... but you`re just 20, so you`ll probably change your mind once you discover that 2 is better than 1: sharing things and moments with someone, aging with someone is probably the most beautiful thing in life. When I was 15, and I had my first heartbreak, I swore I wanted to be single forever, but now that I am 22 and I have gone through some experiences I have totally changed my mind :)

I think people rush relationships. Society and social media create pressure for people and it makes relationships happens too fast or for the wrong reasons. I think it is perfectly normal to wait for when YOU are ready. If you don't want it now, it could change, but it is not weird to be more focused on growing and education, etc. than letting society make you feel like you are weird for feelings this way.
Well, it's about time!
2016-01-16 15:13:52 UTC
no it's not normal, everyone wants to be with someone, it's the way God designed us, it's fine not to want to get married or have a child but to never want a relationship is not normal, so, like some of the others said you could be asexual but trust me if you had sex you'd want to do it again and you'd stop being asexual
2016-01-17 16:13:44 UTC
Its not normal, buut its OK. So many normal things aren't good things. For examle: sleeping around is normal, but disgusting. So be yourself, do what you want to do. Being single is better than being a girl that is used as a toilet by every guy. There are toooo many of the girls and I even don't want to touch them, because their mouth, an*** and every holes have been used as sewer pipes. They are wrong, not you

Do whatever you want. I hate when people look down upon you all because you're single. I find it really sad that it's drilled into our minds that being single is wrong. Just because a lot of people are in relationships doesn't mean you have to. I don't want to be in a relationship because I don't want to put in the effort. It sounds like a lot of work that I don't want to do.

2016-01-21 11:43:48 UTC
It doesn't matter if it's normal or not. Do whatever makes YOU happy. Society labels things as "normal" and whoever doesn't conform to those things "has issues" according to them. It needs to stop.

I'm 20 and I don't want a relationship either. I don't owe anyone an explanation why, and neither do you. People should back off and respect your choices, including your family. So do you, and ignore people who tell you otherwise.

2016-01-16 15:33:08 UTC
It doesn't matter if it's normal or not..your life is yours and you are free to live it in the way that makes you happy as long as you're not hurting anyone else. In your case, if you are dead set against having children, then you shouldn't, because bringing unwanted kids into the world is more harmful than being happily childless. This is your life to live how you want.

I thought I wanted to be single all my life. But in reality, I was so afraid of being rejected by a girl, that I did the rejecting.



I'm a 30-year-old man and am still single. I had second thoughts and don't want to be single all my life. But I will only date/marry women. If I had to choose being single or being a homosexual (which I'm not), I would rather be single.
2016-01-17 16:38:07 UTC
Well normal means conforming to an expected standard, this isn't really what most people do, so not it's not"normal". Not saying that what's normal should even matter, you can't change yourself if you happen to be asexal, at least I think you can't.
2016-01-19 06:51:39 UTC
No there is nothing wrong with that your still young and have life ahead of you don't listing to society or people that tell you that you have to be in a relationship and tell your mom right know you don't want a relationship. Who knows about the future there is no need to jump into a relationship to please your mom is your life you choose how you want to live it, if you meet someone in the future and stell down is okay and if you don't thats okay too, good luck honey!!!

2016-01-19 11:01:40 UTC
Completely normal. You said the exact reason why I don't want to be in a relationship when you mentioned the bit about parents saying "I can't wait till you have grandchildren." It just feels like I have no choice when they say that, or rather I'm living their life instead of mine. Here's the problem though; why do we have to give a **** about what our parents think our relationships should be like? It's our life, not theirs. Yes, they're your parents, but you have to draw the line somewhere.
?
2016-01-20 19:57:00 UTC
All these people are saying that it's normal now but that you'll eventually end up giving in to your "biological needs" which I think is bs. You could just be asexual and/or aromantic, which are valid identities. Asexuality is the lack of sexual desire (sex drive) and aromanticism is the lack of the desire to be in a romantic relationship (not necessarily sexual). I don't know, I just feel like the people telling you that you'll eventually change your mind and find the love of your life is like telling a gay guy that one day he'll find a woman he loves and will realize he's not actually gay.

Honor how you feel. I felt that way in my 20's, but I married, bowed to society's norm and wish I hadn't. I truly loved, relished really, having my solitude and being able to come and go as I please, sleep in, stay up late, be a neat freak at home or be a slug the next day, do the dishes or leave them in the sink, watch whatever programs I wanted to on tv, have my own schedule instead of having to work around someone else's, and "not" have to answer to anyone. Faking it through sex is the worst and a total time waster for me. I have better things to do with my time.



I feel the same way as you.



Stay independent and keep your freedom. I wish I had.

At twenty there is nothing wrong being in relationship. Even God who made us said, it is not good for a man to live alone. Besides two are better than one. The only challenge is that you may need to pray about it so as to be directed by God Himself who is the author of relationship. So all am saying is that it is good to be in relationship except for the purpose of religion
2016-01-17 13:35:09 UTC
No, that is NOT Normal at ALL, Cuz we ALL want to be Loved, and the ONLY WAY to be Truly LOVED by Someone is by being in a Relationship! Also GOD made Women to have things (Cocks/Dill Dos) to go Inside of them, and Guys having their Cocks to go Inside of a Woman, and so that's the way I see it Should be, but I DO UNDERSTAND The Lesbian Issue, But I DO NOT UNDERSTAND GUYS WHO ARE GAY, Cuz IF you see a Guy as being MORE ATTRACTIVE Than a WOMAN, Now that's JUST TOTALLY F*CKED UP!!!

Wow, if anything either ignore your mom when she says that or confront her because honestly she may have to wait a long time for that. It's totally fine your not interested, same here. There's more freedom, less worry, no confusion, and a whole lot of food. A better life can be lived alone.

There is nothing wrong with that. If you are happy being forever single, and can cope, you didn't have to have a relationship. But one day, later in life though it's never too late to change your mind.

I guess depends how you see it



If you've been single for so long or had a recent heart break, I know my ex really broke my heart and because of that, I don't want to date. Although I may end up being dating again, but whenever the moment strikes really

My first love is the only guy I will ever take back because we still love each other but other than him, i'm so over guys.

Maybe you are just happier single?

I also like being alone and doing my own thing.

No for society you will be considered someone with problems or completely antisocial.

If you have the confidence to not care what the world thinks about you, I say go for it.



The peace of mind and happiness when you are with nature or yourself alone doing something you are happy with eg:playing a cool game on your phone, is priceless but many people dont realize it.



There will always be people telling you to marry,get kids,get further education,get a house etc but if you are not happy doing it and its not important in your life, why care about it?



Move out of house and stay on your own if you really want peace.

Relation ship are a lot of work and some people are selfish. After me and my daughter dad split I became free. I like being free I'm not slutty but I like to have guys as friends. Im selfish I can admit it I like to be about me. What's wrong wanting to love your self. We never needed love as children only from family . Children don't need a partner hats why being a child and teenager is nice your free you don't have to worry. Best of luck love rose

You will be a great mother. An incredible one actually, the thing is you don't want responsibility, but you are grown woman, you are far from a kid, I don't know what you're trying to gain by telling everyone this , maybe you want to feel like you're special but it doesn't matter, it really doesn't, its not anything special or amazing. But all I can say is little children are innocent, you're not, so for you to bash them by saying you hate when your mother mentions grandchildren shows how disgusting you are, little innocent children has done nothing wrong, and I hate it when people like you make it seem like they are a bad thing when they're not, YOU are just trying to get some type of attention out of this to make yourself feel good and heighten whatever crappy useless ego you have.

I know a young girl (24 yrs old) who is still a virgin and could care less about heterosexual relationships. She happens to be a lesbian and prefers to be referred to as he/ him.



By most female cultural appreciative standards she is gorgeous but she cares not for guys except the few that she trusts won't hit upon her.



So to answer your question, in some quarters yes it is "normal."
2016-01-19 08:51:11 UTC
Normal. Everyone is living his (or her) experiences. Nevertheless, if you see your face on a mirror, probably could think that a lovely couple bring you to body experiences on the Earth. They take care of you, helped by Mankind that breathes the same air you are inhaling now. You could act like a dry branch of Human Tree, or not, up to You. Ask God too, directly in the dawn... Be happy.

Some people just don't want to be in a relationship or they aren't looking for one at the moment
2016-01-17 15:53:28 UTC
I'm that way, but I still want an intimate relationship with a man.

Yes, it's normal.

2016-01-17 03:20:56 UTC
Yes, of course it's normal. You're in a minority, probably a small one. but that doesn't make your abnormal. Normality does not mean unusual - ask your doc to explain.

You are coming to the end of adolescence and beginning to learn about your adult self. Please don't make decisions for life yet. If you have never had a relationship with anyone, how will you know how you will react when Mr Wonderful comes along in a few months, years or decades and you fall head over heals in love?

2016-01-17 12:30:25 UTC
It means that you are a wonderful personl. Dont ever let anyone pressure you into having sex. Its not for everyone especially if they are not getting married and there are soooo many diseases out there. So many. Instead dedicated yourself to charity, school, traveling etc...keep yourself busy and happy. God loves that. So there is NOTHING wrong with never wanting a relationship.

2016-01-17 15:52:11 UTC
It is totally normal, girl! if its not meant to be, its not meant to be! marriage isn't for everybody so you shouldn't feel as if you should be forced to get married because everybody else is getting married. do you know how much money you would be saving if you didn't get married, boo? you don't have to pay for the wedding, for kids wants and needs (and trust me, girl, they be wanting everything these days) , or the divorce. in conclusion, it is totally normal for you, boo. well, unless you are a muslim whom have arranged marriages, then your screwed :(
2016-01-17 12:29:47 UTC
If you don't have any sexual feelings for anyone and you've gone through puberty you're most likely asexual. But you should still try and have friendships and relationships with friends and families.
?
2016-01-17 17:22:31 UTC
I find it absolutely normal.

In fact, I was in your shoes once.

And I know a couple of female friends who think that way too.

I just think you haven't found that right person yet.

I know that's cliche, but trust me... you'll find that special someone who changes your mind.

For you as an individual, it can be very normal. Many young people feel this way, but, you must remember that you are pretty young and can change your mind. Don't stress over this if it feels right to you.
Tracy
2016-01-19 09:01:09 UTC
Absolutely! God created Adam and Eve to multiple and fill the earth. He put the desire in man to Want a Woman and vice versa.... Being or wanting to be in a relationship is an innate urge given by God

However I have never seen anyone NOT wanting to be with anyone! If that's the way you are comfortable then that's the way things should be

2016-01-18 03:32:50 UTC
it's normal dear..because Relationships are responsibility, Not Fun as some people view. You lose yourself just because of someone else...It's pathetic....

Omg i think your my twin! Lol, im 18 and im exact same! Even the mum thing is same, As for your question of course its normal, everyone is different and have different ways of doing things and have different views on things so how your feeling is totally normal and your not alone

No it is not normal for a human to want to live alone. We were born to live together male and female or we wound have been born with the ability to have off springs on our own.
2016-01-17 10:47:10 UTC
It sounds like you might be a little shy. See if you can meet some guys in church/church fellowships (youth groups which have activities sometimes outside of church). Not being in a relationship can very lonely. Maybe not now, but in the years to come.

2016-01-18 03:33:17 UTC
Personally I don't think it's normal. These are natural desires. I'm curious what is underlying your current outlook?
?
2016-01-17 18:58:39 UTC
First of all, no one cares if you are a virgin and want to stay that way you thirsty desperate attention whore, again nobody cares, so I don't know why you want to go and announce your bullshit on YA but you seem disgusting and nobody wants it even if you offered it, trust me. Your question isn't even a question, its a sh*t statement and its cringeworthy. And I'm so f*cking tired of seeing thirsty crappy sh*t questions like this on YA -vomits-
?
2016-01-17 13:42:11 UTC
You are young. It is fine. Ypu2 don't have to be in a relationship. It's hard to be in one. You need to be loved for you not what he wants you to be. Accept and love yourself first.

It can be under certain circumstances. A lot of people who identify as asexual and/or aromantic feel the same way as you do. Some people also have sexual aversion and some people don't care to have sex or children.

2016-01-19 11:19:04 UTC
Normal is defined by what's comfortable to that person.

Ariel
2016-01-16 15:10:00 UTC
if you are happy, then you have nothing to worry about. You only have to please you.



You may be asexual and there is nothing wrong with that.



You may feel this way now, and may change later. There is nothing wrong with that.



you may feel this way for life, there is nothing wrong with that.





Do or don't do what is right for you. You have no one to please but yourself.



fewer younger people are having children, so many older parents will never become grandparents. If your mother harangues you, send her pictures of your cat and dog and say, "This is your grandcat/dog"

I think it's a good thing.stay a virgin and wait until your married to have sex if you ever find someone that changes your mind. I'd do anything to still be a virgin
?
2016-01-18 18:21:02 UTC
Yep! This can mean you might be aromantic, it's totally up to you and ur personal wants
2016-01-18 06:39:20 UTC
Maybe you're asexual aromantic or somewhere on that spectrum. Visit asexuality.org for more info.

No.But, you know, as do I,that relationships don't always happen.

No, it is not normal, and it's selfish to not have children.

Make whatever life choices you want, as long as by them, you let other people make their own choices similar as you do.



If you dont want to have a partner you harm no one. Of course you shouldnt just have kids to please your mother, because if its not your original choice, you will make the kid sad and so yourself. In my opinion it doesnt worth messing your life, and the life of a new kid just to please your parents.
