Bells Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 ....Not that it's a problem for me...but, I've been talking to this lovely woman (very attractive for her age, gorgeous smile too) But thing is, she's 50, never married, and no kids...I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but most people I come across that are single and never married are no older than 40. but 50? Think there is question there, or no? I was just curious.
CarrieT Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Nah.... I'm 44 and never wanted children. My hard part now is finding men my age to date who DON'T have children because I still don't want them. Most of them who are available are part-time Dads because of a divorce so I see no problem with a woman (or a man!) who has had other priorities in their life.
Star Gazer Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 How old are YOU, Bells? Ever married? Children?

mclovin Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Nah. It's unusual, but it doesn't mean anything bad about her character. Perhaps she never wanted marriage/children or maybe she never found the right person. It's difficult to say. If you date her, you can certainly find out more about her past, beliefs, experiences and character then make your own judgement as to whether or not you want to continue. Good luck, I'm sure it's fine

Silly to try and figure out someone based on such information.
CommitmentPhobe Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 DIfferent isn't bad. I'll probably settle and have kids but I still get fed up with the settled with kids brigade lording it over like anyone who hasn't changed a diaper is somehow odd or even worse "missing out" I'm not sure you're helping
stillafool Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Maybe she just isn't one of those needy women who need a husband and kids to complete her. I have never wanted kids and I don't think it's odd at all. Alot of women these days don't want children but are afraid to express it because of the way people view them.
BentSpine Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Thank your lucky stars. Some only get a small payoff from kids and they believe that small reward isn't worth getting one of their own. Now go find out if the two of you are compatible before someone else does!
Dark-N-Romantic Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Or she can be like me. While I am 38, I have never been married nor have kids. But I have always wanted both. I just haven't found the woman willing to take that leap, at least not with me. DNR
