[quote=Anonymous]I'm 29 almost 30. Recently made a somewhat related thread. Of course, I'm young and a lot can happen in 10 years (or more? I know a couple that met at age 50 and started a family with a foster son)

I always assumed I wouldn't marry and sort of still feel the same. The reason is I'm picky. I've had a lot of male friends and short-term relationships but nothing long term or even close to marriage. If I commit myself to a man, he has to share the same lifestyle as me, and that has been my priority. I'm a triathlete and a globetrotter and I rarely sleep past 5am. I hate staying in one place, being sedentary, being indoors, anything lazy. Too many men my age are into video games and Netflix&Chill. I can tolerate this in very small doses but not as a default. Of course NOW, this pandemic has caused me to totally rethink and evaluate EVERYTHING.

But generally speaking, my lifestyle and activities come first and I know that. Marriage means compromise and I'm not willing to compromise. I don't think that makes me a bad person, most people tell me I'm a great friend, a fantastic aunt/daughter/sister, but a terrible partner.
