So if most guys really want the comfortable feeling of ultimately marrying someone very much like their mothers, it’s no wonder I’m single. I have absolutely no desire to have children. I have absolutely no maternal instinct. I could go on in greater detail but I would rather not further alienate my audience … at least yet.
Just a realization that hit hard. I’m sure there are rounds of guys either intelligent enough to have waited to get married or who have been through the aforementioned and realize they already have or had a “mommy” and realize that’s not “LOVE” love or that perhaps just got married too young, &c. &c. And I am sure they’re out there … and I am here. I would adopt kids, sure. But babies? Not so much….
Just an FYI / realization of the day.
❤ Always, Beth

I have been living with chronic illness since I was 2 months old. My first "formal" chronic illness diagnosis was Behçet's Disease - I was 17 at the time. I was later diagnosed with Common Variable Immune Deficiency (I more or less led the doctors to that diagnosis - that story is for another time!) and those have been my "primary" two illnesses. I have many other "secondary" diagnoses such as seronegative Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chiari 1 Malformation (a result, I believe, of the Behçet's causing aseptic meningitis time and again since it had never appeared in brain scans before I was about 24-25), osteoporosis, compression fractures of the thoracic spine, and many others. I know what it is like to feel as if you have lost years of your life that you can never recover from illness and the many restrictions it places upon you in your everyday life. I just want you to know that I know what it is like and I have been there through every period of my life - you are NOT ALONE! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you ever need someone to talk with or someone just to listen to you - I am always here! Thank you for taking the time to read this and my other posts and I hope you are having a happy and healthy day no matter where you are in the world! Take care.
