Wait till your friends start having children :)
- jlgreco 14y agoAye. That will likely involve a lifestyle shift for me, but I figure I probably have a few more years until I have to worry about that.

- themgt 14y agoIf you're not at an age where you've experienced the people around you "settling into" their default state, which tends to involve either/or marriage/kids for most people (in my experience, by the time people have hit 30-40), you really might want to consider the breadth of your perspective on social relations.
- jlgreco 14y ago@themgt (your comment is dead) The variety of people that I interact with socially is exactly the reason why I have not been socially starved by a few of them having kids. Four or five of them having kids is of little consequence to me. A majority of them having kids would be different. Were they all in a narrow age/maturity range, I would run the risk of that happening in a short period of time, but they are not. I think that anyone who finds themselves, seemingly overnight, in an "all my friends need to find babysitters" situation is really the one that needs to consider the breadth of their social engagement.
