How can I think differently around married/people with kids?

Post Reply New Topic

It just keeps bringing back these thoughts that I'm the ''only one'' and that my generation's single-hood is slowly shrinking because they've gotten married or in long term relationships and had kids until eventually I'm the only one left. I seem to think if I was my mum's or dad's age and still single, the likely chances most haven't been single long term and have been or are married with kids and have grand kids. I have three colleagues at work in their mid/late 30s who have two or three kids between them, two are married and one is separated. I also have worked for more than 8 years in a book/toy shop where we get lots of parents with kids coming in. I hardly had these thoughts when I started, so why now ?
