For those who have never been married and have no kids, and are 30+, do you plan on it in the future? Why or why not? Adoption counts as having kids, of course :) It is of course okay if you want to find a life partner but not get married, just explain why that is your choice in your post. I know the 30+ thing is weird, but I chose it specifically because us 30 something's have reasons why we aren't married and have no kids (a lot of people do these things in their mid to late 20's), but that doesn't mean we want to be that person the rest of our lives, and I thought that'd be an interesting discussion to have.
Personally, I'm still on the fence about actual marriage. To go through the whole license and contract of marriage just sounds so superficial and bizarre to me. I'd rather find a life partner and just agree we'll be faithful and stay with each other. If, however, I found one like that and she really wanted to get married, for whatever reason, then I would have no problem with that, at all.
As for kids, if I found that life partner and she wanted to have them, I would also be down for that. I'd try to convince her we should adopt at least one child because I know there are so many out there who need and would appreciate a family. I wouldn't, however, adopt if I was single. I feel I'm definitely going to need a wing-woman for that lol, but who knows I may change my mind in the future.
So, I guess to answer the poll, no, I don't want to get married or have kids, but I'm not totally against it.
