I kinda believe her. When I was 40, I felt the same. Now 70, still feel the same.
nice. they can keep you in stripper money! :))
This reminds me of the sad story of the old woman found half eaten by her cats.
My Mom is in memory care; I visit every day & see in the dining room the victims of “dump and run” as practiced by their sorry offspring whom they seldom see.
Wife & I have no children, but two `goddaughters’, children of her best friend.
We’ll soon be 70. The one who dies first is the lucky one for not dying alone. Them’s the breaks.
Some people want kids some don’t.
Did you ever wonder if you did have a kid and someday there might be a knock on the door...

Wow! That is amazing! We should all hope we could leave a legacy such as you surely will.
My mother was an elementary school teacher and I have had some feedback that at least a few of her students remembered her with fondness.
said the incel b!tch...
Oh,stop it.
I often wish there was a little FReeper camera so we could all see what we look like when insulting another’s looks.

What’s not to believe?
In any group, there are outliers.
If Lilith had and older, colder sister...
Good for you. Nobody cares.
Frankly my dear, I really do not give a damn.
Why does it bother her so much that no one believes her?
I am not the one trying to justify my life choices like our author.
If she wanted to be childless, then have at it.
My sister decided not to have kids, and that was her choice. OTOH, she doesn’t try to convince others how great her decision was, as though she deserves some sort of special recognition.
This is simply virtue signaling, and I for one, am not going to give her any quarter.
40s is still relatively young and being along can still be very enjoyable. By the 70s and 80s for MOST people, not all, being alone is suddenly a burden, no parents, no siblings, no kids, no nieces and/or nephews ... it’s difficult, as I’ve seen with friends who’ve made this life choice. Some do well. Not easy to judge others’ choices.
Yeah, that pretty much sums it up, eh? There's no way of guaranteeing anything.
It’s often quite fun. I hope to make an impact, not so much on a personal level like “being remembered” but in more of a “helped to shape them” way. It wouldn’t bother me if they didn’t remember me, as long as they remembered the books and movies, and what they meant. I pick stories with morals, and emphasize the morals. I’m (obviously) not interested in the modern grievance/diversity culture. I like stories that are about basic right vs wrong, and noble attributes like keeping your promises, or doing the right thing. Making wise decisions.
Oh, you know she’s all about cats and boxed wine.
