@mem I do the same thing
taking so long to decide that the opportunity is gone. Yesterday I went to finally go and buy this beautiful coat I had tried on before and thought I shouldn't spend any money, and of course it is sold out literally everywhere. I really got my heart set on that coat after so long deliberating about it.
I think I want the aqua, topaz, amethyst, and ginger. What do you want for them? I have some old monthly stuff that I don't need if you want anything like that.

I know what you guys mean!
Strange that I don't really hear this clock ticking yet.
I want children, definitely, but I don't have a partner. Maybe that's why.

You just probably aren't at that stage yet! Remember, I'm less than a year from being 30 XD

I talked about having children with 2 friends as well, seems that people with a partner definitely consider this quite soon when they have reached a certain age.
Well, I am 24, so it's not too far off either xD

@jacob: Oh no! I hate when that happens!

That's why if I kinda want something I'll only ask myself "do I really need it?" and "do I really love it so much?" if either/both are true, then I buy the thing. If I hesistate then I canprobably live without it. Of course, not always I can be so logical, it's still a work in progress xD
Sent them to you
@Julez: Yeah, not having a partner might be the key factor. Ash and I are together for 9 years (in December) so you know. If you met a guy you were sure of you'd probably start hearing the clock soon enough :D

I guess so :D
Though I do have friends which are together for 10 years and they say they still want to work for a bit before having children because they finished uni last year and want to have a bit of freedom first.

@Julez that makes sense, if they were together since a young age it's a bit different to time in adult years, isn't it? When I look back on my relationships that I was ~*totally serious*~ about before the age of going to uni, I just lol at myself XD
@Mem: I found a dupe on another website yesterday and ordered it, so fingers crossed it is similar enough. I just couldn't stop being sad about it haha. What a strange thing to suddenly want so badly, but there we are, maybe I am hormonal or something XD
I also got a new electric toothbrush just now at more than half price in the Amazon Black Friday sale. This may not seem like a big deal to you guys but seriously: I had my current one for about 10 years. It hasn't been able to stay charged for over a year. The place where you hold it with a rubber finish has been peeling off and little bits fall in the sink every time I brush my teeth. It got mould up inside the ridge where the charger goes back when we were living in that apartment that was mouldy, and I could never get it to come out even with bleach, and even though that is the opposite end to the actual bit that goes in your mouth... still eeech. I am so happy to get a new toothbrush XD XD

I've always wanted to have kids, but without a partner I'm just not certain it's the best thing to do right now.
I'm way too unstable. As long as my depressions are still this bad I am not going single parent. :}

jacob, you sound super happy about the toothbrush xD But that makes me happy for you of course :)
I also look for some stuff during the amazon sale, let's see if I can get a backback for cheap :)
Maybe it is the age and the fact that they are together for ages..
It's not that I want children now, I want some, definitely, best case before 30 (at least the first one :D), but yea, not happening as long there is no partner.
Dream, it's better like that. If you cannot really deal with your depression it is indeed not a good decision to have a child of your own.

Well, Ash and I met in high school and been together ever since, so I guess we kin dof met young? But he never finished any of his studies and is doing great financially and I only managed to survive three years, get bachelor's degree and poofed from uni. So we've had freedom from that.
We haven't had freedom in living conditions, always with someone. But by the time we finally buy something I'll probably be around 30 so there's no way I'm waiting. After 30 we'll probably swicth places with Ash, he'll want family and I'll be like "give birth to them yourself, cats are enough for me now, thank you very much".
@jacob: *confetti rain* for lucky purchases XD
@Dream: I'd decide the same, especially pregnancies are so hormonal, it's already unstable.
