Yet, Procreation is an Act which Necessarily results in the death of another Peson. As soon as a person is conceived, the only certain event in his/her life is Death. Anyone who takes this argument seriously is a dolt. | ||

Good luck to you and I hope everything works out. If it comes down to adopting a child, live with no regrets and love the child like it was your own. GL | ||

What is created holds more meaning than simply the value of physical existence itself. Don't pull this kind of existential nihilist bullshit into this thread. I hope things work out for you, OP. You're still only 27. That's not even considered old at this time of age, and besides, this everything else is going alright for you. Just keep trying. | ||

Probably six years or so. Like many have reminded me in this thread, I am young. It just doesn't feel like it sometimes, that's all. It helps to hear that there is plenty of time. Part of the reason I feel behind is, when my father was my age, I was 7 and my brother was 6. | ||

My prime time with games was the NES. That "real life" thing happens fast. | ||
