ยป Thought of having children and be forced to work for 18 more years to raise them is sickening to me

Are you from the ghetto or something?
im not talking about effort but the amount of ur total life energy capacity

after the first couple years, ur kids are going to school and will spend the majority of time there. its funny when parents whine about cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc when u still gotta do all that shiet even when ur single. ur just doing a lil extra. as a man if u picked a decent wife, u wont rly be doing much of that stuff anyways. maybe u give ur kids a ride to school but rly there aint much else to it.

It seems to be a common misconception for people to think the key to happiness is not having any responsibilities. On the contrary, the people I've personally known that seemed to have the most joy and fulfillment in their life all had responsibilities and spent a lot of time doing things for other people - whether family, kids, neighbors, or the community.

I'm not saying anyone needs kids to be happy, and there's exceptions to everything. I just haven't seen anyone that seemed happy who was always focused on their self. Plenty of selfish parents out there, too, but raising kids is one way people learn to stop focusing on their own gratification and learn to put someone else first.

Yeah boyo, I dont want kids, when I was 20 I had the delusion I would meet the perfect girl and have a bunch of kids, just ended up with sloots, get told its incel cope that I dont want kids, just look at the welfare bums I know who dont even want their kids, I know women who had their kids taken by CPS and known a few who gave their kids away for adoption, my cousin is struggling to find a suitable partner and has went through several women, one of them had a kid and he adopted her kid as his own because she just wanted to party every day and get drunk and sleep around, the world is disgusting.

And already putting in more work than Johnvee.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
