Hi All,

My first post here and hopefully one that will at least allow me to further explore myslef, and in particular my quirks.

I am a 31yr old man, quite handsome according to my male buddies and their female significant others. I do get hit on every now and then if I get to the type of places that might warrant it (clubs, bars, etc...) but I lack the need to find a woman to really share the rest of my life with and marry + live together. I do, however, have the regular desire to procreate and would love to have a son/daughter and bring him/her into this world.

Now, I have always kept myself in my own little world and have gone out of my way to prerserve entertainment and pleasure (+golf/tennis/hockey/football/etc. with friends). On the other hand I have 1 brother who is now expecting his first child with his wife, and my 2 former best friends have a small child already. I am their uncle by default already and love both kids. But I would love to have my own.

Are there any people out here who have faced similar situations and have dealt with it appropriately? Preferably somewhat longer term people who can identify with me and who can help me with some pointers.

Regards & Looking forward to hear from people who can talk t me based on experience....,

N

I am also an uncle around the same age, similar, but I don't have any great desire to have kids of my own.

I do think I am number 1 Uncle, as long as I can have a nap every now an then. Seriously some of these kid I don't know where they get this energy from. :lol:
