Update

Hello again. It has been a few days since I have posted. I have been in the hospital with my best friend. Her baby is so cute and adorable. However, she doesn't make me want to rush into motherhood. Seeing the pain my friend is in scares me alone. The idea of having to take care of someone other than myself is scary. In December I will be 32 and my mother constantly asks me when I am going to get married and give her another grandchild. I just tell her I don't know and keep on going. I don't know if I will ever truly change. I have never really been interested in having a child. The only time I entertained it is when I reached 30 and just thought about getting pregnant so that I could lay to rest any speculation people may have. When people see a woman over 30 with a career and no husband or children, they tend to wonder. But I guess I have to ignore all of that and be me each day at a time.

Poet I know in your job its not as easy as it is in mine but to hell with what people say belive me if your not ready for children you dont want them its more than a full time job.I just dont care what people think anymore. When they find out I driver a truck they put me in the same big box that they put al truckdrivers....a bunch of outlaws. Its not true.When I had a friend from school ask me one time what I was doing now and I told him he said sorry about your bad luck LMAO that did it for me so if your not ready for a baby your VERY smart for not having one. I just hate this cookie cutter attitude people have everyone needs to be the same. Get married by this age have kids by this age to heck with em.
