That’s not what I said. I said you can recognize the benefits of what you are espousing and it still not be of interest. The whole thread premise is that based on telling others what worked for you should be the norm. The sheer creation of the thread is questioning people why they don’t want what someone else values.

Unserious thread
it’s a difference between “i don’t mind being alone to each their own” and “i will be alone because i could get divorced, my kids won’t take care of me, it’s a bad thing to reproduce because XYZ” which is what 50% of nikkaz in this thread are saying.

if you cool with being alone cool all power to you, but nikkaz are delusional thinking well i won’t be alone because as an 80 year old man ima have hella friends and brothers and sisters and bytches i used to smash around me to give a fukk. my point is you can’t have it both ways

I know GMB, running through women etc is cool and fun when you're in your 20s, 30s, even 40s. But what if you continue on that trajectory into your 50s and beyond? Are you cool with going through a serious illness by yourself? Potentially even facing death by yourself? With no kids. No wife to take care of you.

Imagine having to fight doctors etc to get the right treatment while undergoing an illness with nobody in your corner. Friends probably won't have time. Most of your family might have already passed away at that point :francis:

Imagine spending your last days in a nursing home surrounded by strangers :picard:

Stressed out cacs giving you the bare minimum service. Damn.

Contrast that with having a bunch of solid kids that you raised, taking care of you. Helping you out in your moment of need because they love you.
we all die alone.

i sat by my grandfathers bed and watched him die...thats something no one can do with you.

Well you keep changing your point. Your initial post was about how great marriage is and then trying to assert that people who don’t share that few had poor family structure.

It’s pointless because nobody is calling for that. Y’all jump to this every time when there isn’t a single thread calling for a mass end to having children.

Mountain out of a mole hill type logic
No one asked/argued for 'a mass end to having children' and what I presented wasn't an extreme. It is, however, an objectively observable phenomenon that is a direct consequence of your position if applied to a civilization rather than an individual.

The 'mountain' already existed and you're looking at it.​

And nobody is advocating its application for civilization so again it’s irrelevant as it applies to to thread and board as a whole. Nobody suggested it so why are you using it as discussion point? It’s a useless exercise that jumps to a worst case scenario that isn’t being promoted.

Facts. I think having kids is selfish in general, but planning on (guilt tripping and) having your own children waste their youth and destroy themselves mentally to pointlessly carry you through old age is straight evil
thread title sounds like u want people to be miserable :picard:

U can be single and do what u want
U know that right op?
Topic over.

The premise at the outset was terrible. The phrase “born alone, die alone “is not about whether people are physically there for you on your death bed, or whether your spouse and kids are there. It’s about the process of death - the deteriorating of your mental and physical faculties and coming to terms with your mortality. It’s a process people can sympathize with but only the dying are going through it.

But nice plat topic.

They are very immature in their thought process bro. They don't get it. I hope they do before life slaps them in the face :francis:

Human needs and basic human psychology are not 'antiquated'. We have the same basic needs as our ancestors. But modern society makes it harder than it ever was to fulfill certain needs. I agree with you on that.

Doesn't mean that you're some super human who will not whither away if you experience profound loneliness though. So you still have to find a solution to the problem either way. Empty slogans are not going to solve anything.
Okay sis.
