I don't ever see myself having kids similarly to Azhdar.
My goals in live diverge too much to give the time and love needed to make decent people, and I've met plenty who thought they could and didn't. (That's not to take away from the ones who did, but it can't be said that there aren't bad parents.)
The other thing I always felt in my bones was a need to travel the world, and I want to complete that, it's one of my big drives and something I've been working at for nearly all of my adult life. I feel like there is so much life and world going on that I want to experience, even briefly.
Me and several partners have fell through because of differing opinions on this, and that's fine. I'm chasing after what I want, and they are as well. I don't want to hold someone back from what they want and need to feel happy, in this case kids, and I make that very clear.
It is a strange thing to me, when people ask why and get puzzled that I don't want kids. But I feel that it's very similar to when I ask them why they do want kids.
They'll give me a variety of reasons, but it always boils down to: Because I just do.
My reason in response is: Because I just don't.
