Well actually I said my THERAPIST had an ideal situation. My point is if you don't want a kid then we all know what it takes to make a kid. If I was in a PhD program I wouldn't get pregnant if I didn't WANT to. Just saying. What I said was honest. I mean HE created his complex situation did he not? Anyways whatever I'm not going to argue about it.

I mean I would think one would think of how a baby would effect their life BEFORE they do the things that create babies... Anyways it is in there now so guess you just have to adjust. Good luck.

I appreciate all the advice given. I actually honestly need the toughness because I am tough too and I don't backdown easily. I totally understood where Joeyboy was coming from because my dream was/is to have that 1950s lifestyle so I got what he was saying and I need a guys opinion. I don't have a lot (any) male friends to tell this stuff to so being able to come here and get all kinds of opinions is great. As far as guys lol I don't want someone who doesn't want to work but I just hate when guys prioritize work over a relationship, like why be on a dating website looking for a relationship if you would just throw away a person who is good for you so you can work all the time. I need to date someone older who has an established career. I'm only going like 30 and up and those older guys probably want marriage and a family sooner.

I wondered this too! I read somewhere that they don't unless it's something you link to them like an online resume but even sometimes then they don't bother.

I don't know what I need to do, I didn't pressure this guy or talk about a relationship or even do anything wrong. I actually thought the whole thing was moving too fast which I was going to bring up next time we hung out. I just feel so annoyed! I was so close to a relationship. I don't even know if I liked him that much but still

Ok so what is exactly in this smoothie and can I put stuff in it to make it sweet because if I drink something it has to taste good.

So the guy I WAS talking to just told me he is too busy with work to maintain a relationship... Literally people care so much about working! if you care about someone you should make time for that. It's total crap.

I'm not trolling I genuinely didn't expect this post to go on, I'm grateful though for all the advice

Oh I just know a lady from my church is adopting a child from Africa and she said it costs like 48,000 dollars. That's an international adoption so that would cost more I guess. If I adopted though it would have to be a newborn

And adoption is super expensive... I could handle the cost of having my own baby but spending 50,000 dollars upfront to adopt is just a lot. If I did adopt I would want a newborn, and that is probably even more expensive

I want a little person who is completely and totally mine. I want to pass along my corky habits or eye shape and stuff like that. I know that adopting is a great thing but to me it would be a last resort, I don't want that I want to carry a baby and deliver and go through all that I just want it so badly. It is so important to me.

OSU is like that, I called and emailed about the financial aid form that they just made available.. Nothing. I will just figure it out on my own

160 for all the apps

I don't even want to think about possibly not being able to have kids, it would be the most devastating awful depressing thing. I see no problem with adopting but it just isn't something I want to do (if I have to I will) I want to be huge and pregnant and puke everyday and feel my little munchkin kick! I just want all that and I couldn't have that if I adopted, then one day I would have to explain to my kid that I'm not their biological mother and it just seems so complicated. If I had to do it I would but I would rather not

I don't get what you mean? Am I rotten?? Umm no... I mean from what my doctor has said everything is normal and believe me I have asked my doctor a million times about potentially getting pregnant (and she's said pretty much what all of you said). Anyways I started that article and it's pretty good, I'm glad that if I have to wait until 30 to have a baby my fertility will not have decreased much. Ideally I would still like to get pregnant in my 20s but IF it didn't happen until my 30s I guess that would be ok. I just never wanted to be an "old parent" like my parents.

Is she on this forum?

That makes me want kids more... I will do the folic acid thing and I will try not to think that by 30 my eggs will be rotten. I never thought that specifically I think at 30 your fertility decreases more drastically than it was at like 20

Oh I've looked every single day lol and talked to people who were accepted by the program about when they heard back

http://jezebel.com/everyone-panic-more-and-more-married-women-arent-hav-1479870622 I thought this was a pretty interesting article.

I am so tempted to call one of the schools because I want to know when I can expect to hear back, I know they have rolling admission but I also know Christmas Break is coming up so they will be out of office. Can I call and ask when to expect a response? I don't want to be annoying and then they deny me admission but I also just want to gauge my time frame.

I don't think you should even mention it, I thought schools looked at the overall GPA as well as the last 4 semesters of grades? I wouldn't mention it, if you end your college career with a low GPA then talk about that but if not then good luck

Have you lost weight doing this? I'm looking for new ways to lose weight

I think I have a good personality, that would make me a good wife to be, I am also super loving and would be a great mom and I'm protective.... Idk

I just grew up watching the old Doris Day movies and stuff I wanted that. My dream was to meet someone marry him and stay at home being a wife and mother. I just wanted to cook and clean and send my babies to school and take care of my husband when he came home. I am kind of past that now I do want a career because I think being at home allday everyday would be awful lol. I don't know what would make me good wife material, I just think I would be a good wife, I was a good girlfriend. I used to say I wanted to live in the 50s because more than likely if I did I sold be Married with kids and I wouldn't be expected to go to school, but I mean having a degree is useful so far and I don't regret that.

Because idk I mean its a good skill and you never know just because one convo doesn't interest me doesn't mean others won't. I don't know I would just be a good wife I'm dedicated and I learn quickly
