[quote=Anonymous]I was the last of every one of my same-age friends and acquaintances to find a partner and to have a child. That experience was world-shifting in ways I could not have anticipated. It was as if the ground under my feet was moving forward and I was knocked backward. Everyone I counted on and felt so connected to had changed so profoundly, in big and small ways, and I was stagnant. It wasn't as simple as them not having free time to hang out or having different priorities. They crossed over. I didn't. I always liked babies and children and mildly wanted to be a mom. Even if that were not the case, being the odd one out would have had a huge impact on me. I probably would have gotten pregnant just to be a part of the next life stage I felt everyone moved on to.
