[quote=Anonymous]LOL if you think married life "looks like slavery", please, for the love of god, don't get married. I love how you only frame this as whether or not you might "miss out" on something if you don't get married and have kids. Like having a family is a question of checking life experiences off a list. "I've been to Bali, lived in Manhattan, and held my daughter's hand on the way home from her first day of Kindergarten. What you got?"

Do not get married unless you are so in love that you want to build your life with the other person. Do not have children unless you want to raise children. Don't raise children unless you view that as a valuable, worthwhile activity in and of itself. Do not have a family simply because it's what other people your age are doing, or because wedding and baby announcements tend to get a lot of attention on Facebook, or because some buddy of yours got married and you need to have what he has.

This attitude explains like 90% of the people I encounter in DC.[/quote]
