[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love to hear from those who have been there and done that:

1. If you were a mid 30s guy, solid education and good career prospects, and don't really NEED marriage and kids to feel fulfilled, would you?

2. Are there many other guys out there like me?

3. Will I hit 40 or 50 and suddenly feel a void that it's too late to fill?

[b]4. Is it FAIR to put myself up for this if I am NOT FEELING it, and would it be FAIR to a potential partner?[/b]

I can understand the sexes might be split on this, but I am so bewildered by all the negativity and stress juggling sex, marriage, kids and career, why bother given all the risks and potential drama involved?

Honest responses welcomed.

To the bolded: no, it would not.

To the question re. whether you need marriage and children to be a fulfilled person: of course you don't, if you don't desire them.

To the question about changing your mind at 40-50: it won't be too late for marriage. And, for a man, it's not too late for kids either. The latter is obviously different for a woman.
