Life is absurd. Lean into it.
I meant to post in here a couple days ago. I actually was going to create a thread on this same topic.
I broke up with my LTR a month ago. We were going strong for damn near 5 years and I was about to put a ring on it, but we both self-destructed and here I am 39, going on 40 in 6 weeks.
I want a kid, I'm meh on marriage because I been married before. My ex had a kid, but one of my malfunctions was I didn't ever feel she was going to let me really be a step-dad to her son. In addition, I felt like she was meh on having another kid. So that amongst other reasons I terminated the relationship.
So, imma play the field for the next year maybe 2, figure out my career situation (I may leave Chicago), stack my paper and get on my relationship shyt again. I just came to terms with I'm just gonna be an old ass dad. Is what it is... it's not ideal, but me not having a kid is a worse fate. I just figure I'm probably gonna be with someone much younger than me now, 8-10 years younger.
