I had terrible nightmare few nights ago. In that dream I had baby. Newborn. She was really cute, really small and I was scared that I'll accidentally break her. Having that child made me so uneasy, I wanted to get rid of her. I forgot her many times in different places and for some reason I got worried every time I lost her. I knew she wouldn't survive on her own.
But some reason I keep telling myself that I'll grow up and get over this phase. That someday I'll be ready to have my own child and love him/her more than anything. I'm not sure why I do that. Maybe it's because every time I tell somebody that I don't wanna have kids, they say "you will want them someday". Everyone seems to be so sure about that.
I don't wanna be so selfish that I would create new child in this world. I can't find any good reason to have own kids, when there's many kids without families around the world. I rather adopt than have my own child. Actually I think I couldn't love something that comes from me.
This might be immature way of thinking, and it probably goes away someday. I probably end up having my own biological children, because that's something people tend to do. But what if this never goes away? What if I just don't want to have kids. If this is not just a phase. It's hard to admit that I might be a person who never wants kids.
We will see that.
Love,
Ambivalent
Samaistun. Meidän parisuhteessa vaan yksi perusasia on se, että jonain päivänä meillä tulee olemaan lapsia, joista ainakin toisen on oltava Nooran biologinen. Jos en hyväksy tätä, mulle näytetään ovea.
ReplyDeleteJos multa olisi puoli vuotta sitten kysytty, että haluanko lapsia (tai siis kun kysyttiin ja tuomittiin), sanoin, että ei, ikinä. Mä myönnän olevani liian itsekäs tällä hetkellä ajattelemaan, että tässäkin kämpässä olisi joku käärö, joka on kummallekin meistä rakkaampi kuin toinen. Enkä haluaisi ottaa sellaista vastuuta ja vuosiksi sitovaa juttua, ikinä, mutta ajatukseen on vaan totuttava.
Elämä on valintoja, mut mun pointti oli, että lapsettomuus on ihan okei, ja oikeestaan aika ihanaa ja suotavaa. Älä vaan pariudu perheestä unelmoivan ihmisen kanssa.
I have the same thoughts; you know this. ...not planning to have children.
