[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I am in the same boat and the same age as you. I am finally starting to even be able to envision being in a relationship and not getting totally bored, to not want to throw up at the idea of quiet nights in watching netflix on the coach with a guy.  My nights have been much more of the "clubbing, out with the girls" sort, and I think, frankly- a boring night in with a dude, who invariably would rather watch football over real housewives, just does not interest me at all.  And I tend to be the alpha in my relationships, basically dictating what we do and where we go and calling the shots, and sometimes it gets exhausting and feels like another chore.

But I feel like with the right guy, and at the right time in our lives, both you and I will be happy to "settle down."  And if not.... well, there's always freezing our eggs and getting in vitro!  Thats my backup plan :) [/quote]

If this is the case, I strongly urge you to reconsider what your idea of being 'in a relationship' means, and I say this is as a 35 year old female. Yes, this is the DC moms and dads forum, but there are plenty of committed (even married) couples who still go out clubbing, host dinner parties, go to happy hour after work and don't get home till 10 pm. Children will change your life (necessarily) more than a relationship will. If you want a committed partner who you can go out with, etc. then seek that out. You don't have to 'settle down' in terms of your lifestyle just because you get married - just find a partner who wants the same things, on the same timeline, that you do. [/quote]
